A Typical Soviet Apartment tour. Frozen in time.
Very nice , looks like a 1960,s uk home
I found it very interesting my mum was born in Poland and the flat reminds me of her family flat in Warsaw they are very big and the windows opened in wards because of the heavy snow I loved it there thank you for sharing ❤
I loved your video! I was born in 85 and this reminds me a lot of my grandmothers little house she shared with her mother. It was in the southern US so not exactly the same but the feeling of it reminds me of hers.
70 luv
putin futue where people money ritcheys word ridshays chantry
The TV and VCR looks like late 1980s or early 1990s because it didn't have dials. So maybe someone lived in it up until 90s.
So much respect, thank you for sharing. What a wonderful time capsule. This apartment is still luxury and big for me now 😅
Nice byt waaay too slow narration. Not for me. Voice bugs me. Sound of saliva makes me scream Misophonia sucks.😢cya.
VERY NICE AND INFORMATIVE BECAUSE WHEN YOU MEET A RUSKY THEY ALWAYS MAKE YOU BELIVE THEY WERE VERY WEALTHY IN RUSSIA AND ALL COM FROM MOSCAW 😂😂😂😂😂😂 NOW I NOT WHAT I BUNCH OF LIERS. 😂😂😂😂 THANK YOU LADY
Excellent! I thoroughly enjoyed it👍 I love everything vintage USSR.
очень интереснo
it looks like an old Italian apartment as well😊
Amazing video, thank you. It's so interesting to see this.
It looks like a museum, is it? A blast from the past. I've seen worse over here.
If this was affluence, I wonder what was considered standard or substandard? This is truly depressing..
Would love to see this Without voice over
This is truly fascinating and amazing. I hope they preserve this place as a museum forever. So interesting
Did they have digital blood pressure machines back then ?
This was amazing...The occupants must have been really well off ...
Theft disappeared when the Russians disappeared!🤣🤣 Tak tochno!! Well, we have a saying that "Russians will take anything that is not nailed to wall".🔨
nice. what city? What is today's value? why empty so many years? thx
It's very different from the USA. If this was a wealthy owner...what did the poor people's living conditions look like?
WOW! I am amazed how much the Afgan War played in the end of the USSR, right down to how veterans became hooligani! This is the first I'm hearing of this! Thank you for uploading this gem also! This gentleman is FULL of stories!
Thank you! Your feedback is very supportive, we will continue to produce similar videos.
Thanks for watching, and we hope you like it! Please check out our latest video about the Soviet-Afghan War: ruclips.net/video/Y-5y1-zVwuY/видео.html
Absolutely wonderful, a true piece of history. As an American, I find all of this so fascinating, to see how you all lived then, truly ❤❤❤❤. Please upload (as a suggestion, of course) what was shopping at the supermarket and department stores like for you, and even information on the Berzoika stores.
Thanks, that sounds like a good idea! To be honest, we have plenty of different video topics in mind, but video production is quite time-consuming. Only this particular video turned out to be popular. Nevertheless, we will continue our work and search for the best video format. Regards, Julia
@@Soviet-Born I am so glad you like my suggestion! Thank you for your response. I really appreciate all the efforts you put into each video, the quality really shows. To me, already, this is a top channel about life in the Soviet Union.
Please upload more interviews such as these, and even interviews from people who lived through the last years of the USSR and witnessed first hand its collapse, increase in crime, economic issues, the uprisings in Lithuania and so forth. I truly am blessed to have been led to this channel. More of them need to show up! Bolshoe Spasiba!
Grim just doesn't describe it...
🙋 I really enjoyed the tour !
Very interesting. Thank you.
It’s still the same in Hungary to. I grow up just like that.
Ha, ha, before reading your comment, I was about to write the same.
An orange Galaxy cellphone box in the kitchen during the Soviet era? 😅
I love seeing how people live in other countries and in different eras. I live in the US and was born in 1970. This looked very much like my grandparents' apartment when i was young. The decor is dated, probably from 1950s through the 70s. When you look at it through the lens of 2024, of course it looks shabby. But I can see how, back in its day, it was considered quite fashionable. I loved the chandelier! ❤ Thanks so much for this glimpse into another time and place! 😊
looking forward to your next video. fascinating. I used to stay in similiar department for a couple of times around 2000 in Riga in a Soviet apartment block.
Thanks! We've already published one! Would be glad if you check it out. Regards, Julia
great looking apartment. dont understand why nobody lives there
Be so fucking for real! Place is a dump!
Lovely little apartment, not too much smaller than my apartment in Cairo, GA USA. I could see myself living there comfortably. I stay to myself and am not very outspoken, I keep my head low, the only thing that would have me standing out, as to the USSR Government is my Faith, Independent Baptist.
I stumbled on this channel. Very interesting topic. Recently, I bought a book titled " the soviet century", Karl Schlogel. Thank you, hope you will be able to make more vidéos. Wishing you the best for your channel.
The biggest country and no living space, strange place indeed
why people live in apartments? Because infrastructure .It is central heating in winter, roads. Difficult climate, when snow is up to the second floor and etc. makes it too difficult live at a distance when you need to go to a certain place to work, bring kids to schools , go to hospital. Are you a kid, dont get it?
The topic is sick
Честно говоря, если положить в ванной плитку на пол, поменять унитаз и немножко облагородить мелким косметическим ремонтом-покрасить белой краской окно, батарею,и трубу рядом с унитазом-ванна будет выглядеть лучше многих современных санузлов.
OMG!!!
Even if this apartment was for the elites it gives a fairly good idea that soviet citizens were well housed... Excellent video! Keep posting...
I would love to see more videos very interesting thanks😊
Thank you very much for your support! We are already actively working on new videos. Regards, Julia
Well that's what communism brings to a country unfortunately
What's wrong with this apartment ???
What exactly? Provide families with decent apartments to live in for free? This apartment has been abandoned for 25 years, and yet it retains a more dignified appearance than many suburban apartments in the big cities of the so-called Western world. Maybe you should take a nice bath of humility and put your washed brain out to dry
Well it seems like that in the soviet era people were all well housed, we need more housing in the UK, having your own place in UK is now unattainable for many, and there is no system to build low cooost governement housing
This was a WEALTHY 4-people family home. The normal Soviet people lived in "kommunalka" which means that in every room there lives a family and the bathroom and kitchen are shared. So in this apartment there would have usually been two normal families. So -say 8 or 9 people sharing one toilet. @@GallopingHorse1
The comparison between a wealthy 4-People family home in non-communist country. That what's wrong. @@surendramumgai631
Oh my god!!! very poor looking but clean
Poor looking ? The poor have such apartments ?
Poor and trashy.
Well, this was apartment for WEALTHY 4-people family in Soviet time Ukraine. Just go and look a house tour how a wealthy 4-people family lives in: USA, Canada, Germany, Australia, New Zealand, France, Italy, Spain etc.🙄@@surendramumgai631
@@surendramumgai631 I believe the government gave out these apartments for free.
It is poor looking. I can't believe the people here were well off.
Whatever, it's an oppressive culture.
Это не памятник Ленину,это памятник Тарасу Григорьевич Шевченку.находится этот памятник в городе Харькове в парке Шевченко и даже на этой тарелке на заднем фоне кинотеатр" Украина "
Thanks for the glimpse into the past! Such cabinets in the living rooms were common in North America as well.
I bet you probably had a bit more diversity in furniture models😀 There will be more videos, with a kind interview format as well, so welcome on board, and we are also glad to receive any feedback. Thanks. Regards, Julia
So clean for being vacant for so long, 😂 Mine was dusted a week ago and needs it all again
Yes, that's also the case for us😀 As I mentioned earlier, the apartment is being watched, and I think they probably wash it sometimes. Regards, Julia
I enjoyed the video. One question, was there no sink/ wash handi basin n the bathroom?
That is great! Glad to hear that. As for the sink, yes, it was in every bathroom in addition to the bath. Sometimes, due to space constraints in old buildings, they can be uninstalled to make room for modern washing machines. Regards, Julia
I stood my time opposing communism and will never regret helping in setting the world free. Soon they will be free again after Ukraine is over. The million's of good Russians were murdered by this system,this was a rich persons home? how did the average people live? With lot of Vodka I guess to be the case.SAD and tragic Putin are you watching this while you can? Soon it will be over for you!!!
A lot of people living in the Western world think that the USSR and Russia are the same, that Soviet people and Russians are also the same, but that is not true. All the things you mentioned about the current situation are directed to the wrong place. I was born and live in the USSR, but I am not Russian and never have been and never will be. As for our attitude towards communism, you can simply check the previous video, and you will clearly understand us. Regards, Julia
I understand you are not russian get away as fast as you can. Big trouble on the way for Russia@@Soviet-Born
