There are a lot of places worthy of attention. There are places that have their roots far in the history of Russia, such as arms factory.

Mountain Park named after P. Bazhov was opened in honor of the 25-year anniversary of the plant “Construction-Technique”. In the middle of the park was built a viewing platform of boulders brought from eight quarries Sverdlovsk and Chelyabinsk regions. The viewing platform has a 10-meter man-made waterfall. There, in the mountain park alongside with stone and bronze sculptures, are wooden sculptures, such as a hut on chicken legs, a well, wooden throne and others. Some objects that adorn the park, the plant management bought from private sculptors.
