Other ways to get to the resort.

Solotcha is called the “gate to Meshchera”. Let's walk around this a little small village and, at the same time, let’s remember the history of both Solotcha and the Meshchera region. In addition to my photographs presented in the post, there are photographs taken from the Internet. . Let's start our tour of Solotcha from Monastyrskaya, the former Leninskaya Square, where, in addition to the monument to Lenin and the Borovnitsa Hotel, there is a monastery in honor of the Nativity Holy Mother of God.

One of the most beautiful places central Russia, Meshchera forests are located at the border of Moscow, Ryazan and Vladimir regions, but it is Ryazan Meshchera that is called the Meshchera region. The Meshchera Lowland received its name from the ancient Finnish tribe Meshchera, who lived here along with the Mordovians and Muroms even before the Slavs appeared in these places. The Meshcheryaks lived mainly along the banks of rivers and lakes, engaged in cattle breeding, hunting, fishing and farming.

The forests of Meshchera are dense, dense and mysterious. Swamps - mshars - stretch for kilometers. Overgrown with birch, aspen and tall swamp grass, human-sized, this is the real swamp jungle of our central zone. Here, 20 km from Ryazan, is located resort village Solotcha. From Moscow by car along the Ryazan-Vladimir highway it takes a relatively short time - about three hours. Solotcha is called “Ryazan Italy”, “Ryazan Switzerland”, and sometimes “Ryazan Sochi”. In the past, Solotcha was known as an all-Union health resort.

Once upon a time, the Oka flowed near Solotcha itself, depositing here a high sandy terrace, which was later overgrown with dense forest. Now all that remains of the river is a rather long, quiet backwater - an oxbow lake - behind which water meadows stretch for ten kilometers. To the east of Solotcha, the forest turns into a mixed Meshchera forest. All this is “Ryazan Italy”. It is unknown who gave this name to Solotcha; it is found in pre-revolutionary publications. There is another river here - Solotcha (Solodcha, Bolshaya Kanava), which begins in the swamps of Radovitsky Mokh and collects water from the vast territory of the Meshchera forests, flows south and flows into the oxbow lake of the Oka River near the village. Its natural flow was regulated back in late XIX centuries, when drainage work in the Meshchersky forests was carried out by a government expedition led by General Zhilinsky. The expedition dug a network of canals, the total length of which, according to the book “The History of One Province” recently published in Ryazan, exceeded 2000 kilometers, and a significant part of these canals is still quite recognizable today.

I couldn’t find anywhere an explanation of where this name came from: Solotcha. There are assumptions: first, in the distant past there were many saltworks in these places; the second explanation comes from the word “solodtsy” - springs - of which there are a lot along the banks of the oxbow lake. Perhaps from the Russian word “solotchina” - a marshy swamp with stagnant water or “slotina” - a lowland with steep banks.

These dense forests and impassable roads at one time protected the Meshcheryaks from many storms and adversities, sheltering them from the raids of nomads. During the greatest prosperity of the Vladimir-Suzdal principality, Grand Duke Vsevolod extended his power to the Ryazan land and Meshchera. One of the chronicles tells about the campaign of his soldiers to the river Pre: “In 1210, the great prince Vsevolod sent an ambassador with a regiment, Kuzma Ratisich, his sword-bearer, and took the Prue, and returned with many full to Vladimir.”
In the second half of the 14th century we see Meshchera, already divided between four principalities. Her Northern part belonged to the Murom, Vladimir, and later Moscow principalities, while the southern (Meshchera side) belonged to the Ryazan principality. By the middle of the 15th century, Meshchera belonged to the Kasimov kingdom, which existed as part of the Moscow state until late XVII century. Ancient capital In the Meshchera region there was Gorodets-Meshchersky, mentioned in the chronicle in 1152 and given the name Kasimov after the Tatar prince Kasim.

The Meshchera forests have repeatedly been a refuge for thousands of Ryazan residents fleeing Tatar raids.
When in 1379 the hordes of Mamai invaded the Ryazan principality, then, as one of the chronicles says, “Prince Oleg Ryazansky did not have time to gather an army, left the city and went across the Oka River with his people.” Tradition says that in 1390, while staying two dozen miles from Pereyaslavl, the Grand Duke inadvertently met two monks, the venerable elders Vasily and Euthymius, who had set up a monastery here. “Having enjoyed the spiritual conversation with them and captivated by the beauty of the location” of the modest monastery of the schema-monks, Oleg Ryazansky ordered to found a monastery here in honor of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary, during which the village of Solotcha arose. But I will tell you about the monastery in another post.

Like many settlements along the Oka River, Solotcha played the role of a guard post guarding the approaches to Ryazan and Moscow. After the Ryazan principality was annexed to the Moscow principality, the question arose of how to secure the southern borders from Tatar raids. In the 16th century, during the time of Ivan the Terrible, the construction of the abatis line began “to protect the entire Moscow state, and not for nine villages.” Forest rubble with fortified wooden fortresses - “towns”, which contained small garrisons, stretched for hundreds of kilometers from west to east. For a long time, Meshchera served as a place where serfs who fled from the oppression of the landowners and schismatics who sought to hide in the deep forests from the watchful eye of the Orthodox Church found shelter.

In 1892, the dirt road running from Ryazan to Meshchera, broken by carts and crews, had a rival - a narrow-gauge Railway. It was built in 1892 to transport timber from the Keletsko-Solotchinskaya dacha. During these years, terrible forest fires and famine completely ruined the Meshchera men. Fearing unrest among the peasants, the government was forced to arrange a public Works for timber harvesting. Such a huge amount of wood was harvested in a short time that it was simply impossible to transport it on horseback. It was then that a narrow-gauge railway with a length of forty-three miles was built. Then it was extended to the Tuma station, equipped with passenger and freight carriages, and for a long time it was the only means of communication between Ryazan and the Meshchersky region. They used the narrow-gauge railway to go to work in the city, to the market, and transport timber and peat.

The road looked like a toy. Small locomotives (popularly called “goats”) laboriously pulled unsightly carriages chock-full of passengers. Wooden stations were built along this route. From Solotcha to Ryazan is only 20 kilometers, but the train covered this distance in an hour. He moved slowly, and they say it was easy to catch him on a horse. During the spring flood of the Oka, traffic on the narrow-gauge railway stopped.

This curious road has not survived to this day. Konstantin Paustovsky spoke about it in his Meshchera stories: “Behind Gusem-Khrustalny, at the quiet Tuma station, I changed to a narrow-gauge train. This was a train from Stephenson's time. The locomotive, similar to a samovar, whistled in a child's falsetto. The locomotive had an offensive nickname: “gelding.” He really looked like an old gelding. At the corners he groaned and stopped. Passengers got out to smoke. The silence of the forest stood around the gasping gelding. The smell of wild cloves, warmed by the sun, filled the carriages.
Passengers with things sat on the platforms - things did not fit into the carriage. Occasionally, along the way, bags, baskets, and carpenter's saws began to fly out from the platform onto the canvas, and their owner, often a rather ancient old woman, jumped out to get the things. Inexperienced passengers were frightened, but experienced ones, twisting goat legs and spitting, explained that this was the most convenient way get off the train closer to your village.
The narrow-gauge railway in the Meshchersky forests is the slowest railway in the Union.”
K.G. Paustovsky in Solotch. At his favorite “steam locomotive-samovar” on the Ryazan-Tuma narrow-gauge railway. Late 1930s

In the 17th century, a school of icon painters flourished here. In the middle of the 19th century, two comrades moved from here to St. Petersburg - volost clerks, future artists I. P. Pozhalostin and H. E. Efimov, and in the 1920s, artists A. E. Arkhipov and M. G. Kirsanov lived and worked in Solotch. Sergei Yesenin was here. Later, as if to replace him, a whole group of writers settled in Solotch - K. G. Paustovsky, R. I. Fraerman, A. P. Gaidar. Living in the old house of I.P. Pozhalostin, they created many of their wonderful works here, and K.G. Paustovsky’s stories “The Meshcherskaya Side” gave poetic immortality to the images of this region. There will also be a separate post about the Pozhalostin Museum.

From Paustovsky’s letters to his wife: Oct 1<ября> <19>40 Solotch “...There has been an extraordinary change in Solotch - “mat” has completely disappeared (in connection with the new law on hooliganism). During all this time I have not heard a single “mat” on the streets - the Lombards are afraid to even curse horses as “the devil”, but in the meadows, when they are left alone, they let their souls go. Fortunately, the meadows are now very deserted...” (Paustovsky jokingly called the Solotchinsky peasants Lombards.)

Solotcha, July 1<19>48 “... There is a drought here, the garden turns yellow and flies around, and there are winds all the time. Gray spends a lot of time in the hospital, sometimes visiting patients’ homes. The hospital is poor, there is nothing, sometimes there is nothing to boil instruments on. The darkness, dirt and ignorance are terrible, and Gray is amazed by this - here he first encountered real reality. ..” Gray - Sergei Mikhailovich Navashin, future microbiologist scientist, academician of the Russian Academy of Medical Sciences - stepson of Valeria Vladimirovna Navashina-Paustovskaya, Paustovsky’s wife, did medical practice in the rural Solotchinsk hospital.

Solotcha, 5/VI-<19>48 “...Sery has a lot of work,...During the day there are receptions for 40-50 people. A lot of curiosities. The other day an old woman came from Zaborye, so bitten by cockroaches that her whole body was like scales. He is afraid that the cockroaches will “peck out his eyes” and covers them with a towel at night.
There are a lot of flowers in the meadows, and I have already identified many of the flowers. This is as much fun as fishing. Gray is also into this and brings me all sorts of rare flowers...”
K.G. Paustovsky and V.V. Navashina-Paustovskaya on a narrow-gauge railway in Solotch. In the carriage window: the writer’s son Vadim and adopted son Sergei Navashin. Late 1930s

According to Wikipedia, in Solotch there is a timber processing plant, the Meshchera zonal experimental reclamation station, a rest home, a children's tuberculosis sanatorium, and a camp site.
Tourists love Meshchera and Solotcha. In summer and winter, thousands of tourists go on hikes to this wonderful region by boat and on foot, on bicycles and on skis. Once upon a time, I went skiing in the winter and went hiking with my friends in the summer. One of the trips is illustrated by photographs from my home archive.

North of Ryazan, about 20 km along the road to Kasimov and Vladimir, is the resort village of Solotcha. This favorite place rest of the majority of Ryazan residents. The thing is that this place has everything you need to breathe clean air and improve your health: a relict pine forest, turning in places into a mixed forest.

Solotcha is located almost on the banks of the Staritsa (that’s the name of the river flowing here). In fact, Staritsa is one of the boundaries separating two different natural massifs - on one bank of the river there is the Meshchera forest, and on the other the Oka floodplain, and then beyond the Oka there will be mostly fields, the forest will only be found in islands, there will no longer be a large continuous massif. In addition, there are many lakes in relative proximity to the village.

They say that the convenience and beauty of Solotcha was appreciated by the great Ryazan prince Oleg. In any case, the founding of the local monastery, which you will definitely see, since it is located on the main and only square of the village, is attributed to him. This, by the way, is one of the few attractions of the village. Still, people go to Solotcha for clean air and beautiful nature, and not for architectural beauties.

Where to relax in Solotch

Everyone chooses their own way of relaxation. Personally, in spring and autumn I simply go to Staritsa, lakes or the forest, depending on the weather, mood, presence or absence of mushrooms. In the summer I rent a dacha in one of the villages that make up the village. It's called Davydovo. For those who are looking for where to rent a summer cottage for the summer, I recommend this particular place, since it is located a short distance from the central highway, the forest begins behind the houses, and the river is 15-20 minutes away at a leisurely stroll through the forest.

You can rent a house or a room in Solotcha itself. But in the village, for the most part, houses are rented on Poryadok and Vladimirskaya streets, and many cars pass through them. Not entirely pleasant. It is better to look for a house away from these streets.

For those who are used to organized holidays and three meals a day, there will also be a place to rest, and at the same time receive treatment. There are three large sanatoriums: Sosnovy Bor, Solotcha ( prices and reviews here) and "Old Woman".

“Sosnovy Bor” is located at the entrance to the village, about a couple of kilometers from the highway. The sanatorium is located on the outskirts of the main residential area, which is generally good in terms of recreation - there are relatively few people. The sanatorium has its own beach.

"Solotcha" - almost at main square, next to the monastery. There is no private beach, you have to go to the city one, which is about half a kilometer along a forest path along the shore. On the other hand, the path is very beautiful, you can take a walk. In addition, there is a spring along the road that is considered “holy”.

“Staritsa” is located at the exit from the village, between Solotcha and Zaborye. The sanatorium itself is located in a clearing near the river and has its own small beach. Experts believe that this particular sanatorium is the best of the three. There is one thing - active construction is underway not far from the Staritsa.

In addition, in the forest around the village there are many departmental holiday homes, as well as pioneer camps. There will be an opportunity to relax in them - don’t miss it, it will be useful. There are also guest houses and hotels. The Land House in Davydovo is good. On weekends, all rooms are usually full.

All holiday options with online booking are here.

What to see in Solotch

Mostly people go to Solotcha for nature. The holiday homes, of course, have restaurants, billiards, table tennis, spas and baths. But first of all, people still come here for the clean water in the river and lakes and the air of the pine forest, which clears all the lungs.

You will see the sights in a day. You should definitely go to the monastery. Access is open, just remember that men should not wear shorts and women should not wear trousers. Otherwise you will not be allowed further than the gate.

The monastery is surrounded by an impressive wall, and inside there are two churches. The one on the left is interesting. On its outer walls there are small multi-colored frescoes-icons.

They were preserved, despite the fact that for some time there was nothing on the territory of the monastery - neither a museum, nor religious institutions.

If you walk further along Poryadok and Vladimirskaya Street, you will reach the house-museum of I.P. I'm sorry. There was such a famous engraver who lived in Solotch. Its beautifully carved wooden house and outbuildings have been carefully preserved.

This place is also interesting because K.G. stayed there. Paustovsky. It was about this house and gazebo that he wrote in his “Meshcherskaya Side”. The museum contains the things of the famous writer, in which he went fishing in local reservoirs. They say he was an avid fisherman. One can appreciate the frankly spartan conditions in which the winner of many awards rested. By the way, Paustovsky got to Solotcha through Tuma. So in the 30-50s it was more convenient from Moscow, because the large (“Solotchinsky”) bridge across the Oka appeared only in the seventies. And from Tuma to Shumashi there was a narrow-gauge train. At that time it was the main transport route in the forested areas.

Actually, that's all. You can still walk to the main active church. In addition, across the road, not far from the Pozhalostin Museum, there is a Kooperator store. Go there and ask if there is bread from the Zaborievo bakery. If you have it, you should definitely buy it. It’s not clear what they do with it, but you probably haven’t eaten tastier bread. They work very well.

The rest of the time you will spend walking along the river and through the forest. Fortunately there is a lot of this goodness here. You will definitely like it!

Pedestrian promenades along Solotcha have a special romance. You have a choice: get a map of Solotcha with sights and routes in advance, or simply go wherever your heart desires. Then it's even more exciting. Let yourself get lost in the ancient streets or take a walk in the parks. And if you get tired, you can refresh yourself or drink a cup of coffee in a pleasant cafeteria. By the way, in Solotch there are several popular places at all times that every tourist dreams of.

If you plan to gain in-depth knowledge of the history of the city, come on an excursion to the museum complexes of Solotchi. They contain extensive collections of folk studies, artistic skills, objects of folk art and everyday life, from archaeological excavations. Traditionally, these attractions are located in the center.

At the same time, open thematic museums can often be found in suburban areas. They present entertaining exhibitions dedicated to national life and folk crafts. In addition, it could be a museum reconstruction of historical settlements or defensive forts. Such attractions of Solotcha will be very educational for children: Museum of Pushupov Toys, S. Yesenin Museum-Reserve, Museum of Academician I.P. Pavlova.

For family tourists, the question is always relevant: where to go with children. The most popular option is to go to one of the Solotchi aquatic complexes. There are often discounted rates available when purchasing a full-day family ticket.

If you are planning a trip during the winter or spring season, we recommend that you consider active leisure ski resorts Solotchi. There is a lot of entertainment for children and adults: various slopes for skiers and snowboarders, cheesecake skiing, interesting fun parks for experts. Typically, such complexes are located several tens of kilometers from the city, for example: Ski resort Chulkovo, Borovskaya Kurgan, Alpatyevo. So it is more convenient to arrive at the place by personal transport or rent a car.

In such an adventure you will get a lot of unforgettable emotions from being in the fresh air, replenish your health and good spirits.

If you visit the city on work matters, then for long excursion programs you don't have enough free time. In such a situation, we advise you to find a condensed index of Solotchi attractions with photos and descriptions.

A similar reference book can always be found after arriving in the city for railway stations or at the airport. There is a list of the most interesting places, where to go in Solotch, with names and photos of attractions. Agree, this greatly simplifies the question of what to see in Solotch if you are limited in time.

However, if the directory describes the most popular places in Solotchi, then on the Internet you can find a top “unpromoted”, but no less interesting attractions with reviews from experienced travelers. Abandoned adits, mysterious quarries, ancient narrow-gauge railways, bridges - such attractions attract adventure lovers.

When planning a trip to Solotcha, we advise you to obtain information not only about the sights, but also about other significant infrastructure facilities of the city. To move around the city, it is worth understanding the operating scheme of urban transport, the localization of railway and bus stations or ports, and metro stations. At the same time, these important public buildings in Solotchi can become objects of tourist interest. Often they are the ones who become business card cities.

The town of Solotcha administratively belongs to the Sovetsky district of Ryazan. This fact is especially emphasized by the residents of Solotchi themselves - they say that we do not live in a village, but in the capital of the region. We are not villagers, but city dwellers.

However, Ryazan and Solotcha are separated by 20 km of the M-5 highway, and Solotcha looks exactly like a village. There are no apartment buildings here, only private ones. Even a normally asphalted street is only one. Not because of poverty, but because Solotcha is in a specially protected natural area. Multi-storey construction and other urbanization are prohibited here, and no one needs them. After all, Ryazan Solotcha is local resort, and extremely popular. Ryazan residents are proud that they have their own “Switzerland” in the city: in the winter they come to Solotcha to ski, in the summer they send their offspring here to children’s camps, and the local sanatoriums generally operate all year round.

Solotcha has a rather impressive resort history - it was adapted as a health resort for residents of the Ryazan region almost immediately after the war. Firstly, there is clean, healthy air here: Solotcha is densely surrounded by pine forests. Secondly, clean rivers flow nearby, Solotcha and Staritsa, seven kilometers away is the Oka. There are places to swim and sunbathe in summer. Thirdly, Solotcha is conveniently located, at least from the point of view of Ryazan residents. Solotcha is called the “gate to Meshchera”, and Meshchera is one of the most popular holiday destinations in central Russia. Meshchera forests and rivers are so valuable that for their sake, the Meshchera National Park was formed in 1992.

In addition, Solotcha has its own mountain with the simple name Lysaya. So, in addition to cross-country skiing, which is incredibly popular in Solotch (in winter, the entire surrounding area is dotted with lines of ski routes, there are rentals on every corner), vacationers have the opportunity to slide down an equipped slope. They even built a ski jumping ramp here, although in the 2012/2013 season it was full of holes and had no stairs to the top.

But not only adherents of healthy leisure travel to Solotcha. The village is considered a kind of cultural satellite of Ryazan. First of all, because of the house-museum of Ivan Petrovich Pozhalostin (1837-1909), the famous Russian engraving master, located here. The same one whose name is given to the Ryazan Art Museum.

The Pozhalostin House Museum definitely deserves attention - it seems that this is the only museum in Russia dedicated to the engraver. In addition to the permanent exhibition, the museum operates an exhibition center, where very high-quality exhibitions are organized monthly, which bring together artists and other creative personalities from all over Russia. Of course, the museum tries to support modern engravers - you can count them on one hand throughout the country. And regular exhibitions of engravings are organized only in two places - in Solotch and Yekaterinburg.

During the Soviet years, Solotcha was made a resort and cultural resort, although before the revolution it was better known as a spiritual center. The heart of Solotcha - historically and geographically - is the Monastery of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary, founded in 1390 by Grand Duke Oleg of Ryazan, canonized (his relics are kept in the monastery to this day). For centuries, the Solotchinsky monastery was one of the richest and most influential in Russia, now the monastery is gradually coming to life and being restored through the efforts of nuns - it is a women’s monastery, functioning. Its doors are always open for both pilgrims and ordinary curious people. Those who are curious will be interested to know that the Solotchinsky Monastery is the largest monument of the Naryshkin Baroque in the Ryazan region. This snow-white ensemble transforms the rural resort into a place with an ancient and significant history.

The entire preserved history of Solotcha can be seen on a single historical street - the further you go from it, the more Solotcha resembles an ordinary overgrown holiday village. This historic street contains both a monastery and central square(as usual, Lenin), and the Pozhalostin house-museum, and another church - Kazan, 18th century. This street is the only clear and straight highway, like in the city. It's funny that it's called Order Street. True, they say in Solotch, the whole point is that the houses along it are in order.

On Poryadok Street there are preserved houses from the 19th century, mostly wooden with attics and carved platbands. True, they were quite diluted by Soviet country houses and state-owned houses like hotels and empty general stores. This piece of historical Solotcha is supported on all sides by modern estates, some, according to available data, even have underground courts. Owning real estate in Solotch is fashionable not only among wealthy Ryazan residents, but also among the ubiquitous Muscovites. Firstly, the status of a resort helps, and secondly, in this way Ryazan residents solve the problem of traffic jams. It is faster to travel by car from Solotcha to the center of Ryazan on a weekday than from one district of the city to another. If you put the ancient houses in order and invest in infrastructure, Solotcha could turn out not to be a rural, but an almost European mini-resort, pleasant in all respects.
