I’d like to tell you about Bratsk. Bratsk is a Siberian town on the river Angara. The history of developing the Angara goes back to the 17^th century, when in 1631 the Cossacks with Maxim Perfilyev at the head built a small fortress on the right bank of the Angara. The Russian Cossacks called the local Buryat inhabitants “brotherly people” and hence the fortress became known as Bratsk.

Bratsk’s new life began in the middle of 1950s. In December 1954 first builders came here to build a new town and Hydro-Power Plant. In 1961 the first generating units of the Plant were put on line and in 1967 the entire Station went into regular commercial service.

Now Bratsk is a modern town. More than 280000 people live here. The pride of inhabitants is the 50^th Anniversary of October Hydro-Power Plant. It is the principal place of interest in Bratsk.

Bratsk is one of the industrial centres in Siberia. There are a lot of industrial enterprises here. The largest of them are Bratsk Aluminium Plant and Timber Industry Complex. The output of these enterprises is well known in the world.
