Cities and towns and their cultural life are one of the main cultural tourist attractions of the Republic of Tatarstan. Each of them has own cultural and historical identity, which is a combination of historical events, cultural sites and traditions, religions and ethnical groups. The republic is situated in the centre of the European part of the Russian Federation and surrounded by many different regions and republics. As nearer a certain city or town is to borders with those regions as higher the interaction between cultures in different aspects - ethnic, religious, traditional, etc. Those differences are easily to be noticed by visitors in style of buildings, clothes of inhabitants, presence of religious objects and festivities, conducting local festivals, etc.
