A tour through the articles of the Encyclopedia of Nizhny Novgorod
A circuit of the walls of the Nizhny Novgorod kremlin: thirteen towers, five square gate towers and eight round battle towers. The camera walks the ring from the main gate and back to it, and at every stop the tower itself lights up.
