"You would see a mosque and a church standing right next to each other, and I think that's what Kazan is about. These two cultures and religions living closely together."
Kazan is located 800 km east of Moscow and with its 1.3 million inhabitants it is the sixth largest city in Russia measured by population. Kazan is a multicultural city where different cultures and religions have lived side by side in harmony for hundreds of years.
Kazan is also home to the Rubin Kazan football team, the Ak Bars hockey team and the UNICS basketball team.
In this episode, Adil meets up with Ilsur, who was born and grew up in Kazan but now lives in Copenhagen. Ilsur talks about his favorite places in Kazan, teaches us a little of the Tatar language and takes us into the Tatar kitchen.
