Link is safe for work....there are some thumbnails on the left that may be questionable, but without nudity.
Pics are great though. I have not been there, yet, but would love to visit.

Looks like it would be a cool place to go visit.

I noticed that the general architecture of the buildings are much more modern and that there isn't a lot of the old style designs indicating that the city was rebuilt or is newer.

City originated in 1897. But, you are correct, most of it is new. It boomed in the seventies/eighies.

Those are some cool pictures.

Any idea what the plane is here that looks like it may be an old fighter?

Good question. Hard to tell without seeing the tail. Kind of looks like a MIG-3...or could be a LAGG-3...
