[:en]“Mega Tourism Caravan” arrived in Kazan
12 July 2013
The third stop of the caravan was at Ufa, the capital city of the Republic of Bashkortostan, Russia, and the industrial, economic, scientific and cultural center of the republic. The city began as a fortress built on the orders of Ivan the Terrible in 1574, and originally bore the name of the hill it stood on, Tura-Tau. It was granted town status in 1586 and by the 18th century evolved into a trading, manufacturing and cultural center of Southern Ural. After the outbreak of the Pugachec’s Rebellion, it went through the most brutal events in its early history; the fortress and the city were in the middle of the military actions. For several months during the winter of 1773–1774, Ufa was under siege by Cossack and Bashkir insurgents until they were fought off by the arrived government forces.
Before becoming the seat of a separate Uafa Governorate in 1781, the city, along with the rest of the Bashkir lands, was under the jurisdiction of the Orenberg governors. And even though the 1796 reform reunited Orenburg and Ufa again, in 1802 the city of Ufa became a new center of the entire Orenberg Governorate that included large territories of modern-day Republic of Bashkortostan, Orenberg Oblast and Chelyabinsk Oblast. During the 1800-1810s, Scottish Russian architect William Heste developed a general city plan for Ufa as a regional capital shaping the modern outline of its historical center.
