Ride to the battle fields in Leningrad region

[Volchkoff_imp]

Finally I arrived. The beachhead is not so big. 500m on 2km.
I parked my bike and went to walk.
Now there is a monument. The text on the front of the monument: "You, alive, know that this earth we did not want to leave and we did not leave. We fought near dark waters of Neva river. We died to give you live.".
Territory of beachhead looks like a lunar landscape. Everywhere surface of earth is pitted. You can recognize traces of bunkers, trenches. Many years no one tree didn't grow there. Because of shell fragments, and other metal scrap.
There are a lot of "souvenirs" everywhere.
