The historic part of the city, a World Heritage Site, is located at the confluence of the Volga and the Kotorosl rivers.
The city's entire urban area covers around 205 square kilometers (79xc2xa0sqxc2xa0mi)[citation needed] and includes a number of territories south of the Kotorosl and on the left bank of the Volga.
With nearly 600,000 residents, Yaroslavl is, by population, the largest town on the Volga until it reaches Nizhny Novgorod.
Typically the Volga freezes over during the winter.
The oldest settlement in the city is to be found on the left bank of the Volga River in front of the Strelka (a small cape at the confluence of the Volga and Kotorosl); this dates from the 5thxe2x80x933rd millennium BCE.
Based on its earliest date of foundation, Yaroslavl is the oldest of all the existing towns on the Volga.
On this spot, which was well protected from attack by the high, steep banks of the Volga, Kotorosl and Medveditsa rivers, Yaroslavl and his men began to set about building the first Yaroslavl Kremlin.
[25] On many an occasion Yaroslavl had to be completely rebuilt, both in terms of residential buildings which no longer exist, to those larger more permanent structures which remain to this day, such as the Spaso-Preobrazhensky Monastery and 1314 Monastery of Maria of Tolga, which is located on the left bank of the Volga.
The main reason for this largely unexpected improvement in Yaroslavl's fortunes came largely from the city's position on the Volga which allowed trade to be brought from and to Moscow via the river, linking the new Russian capital with the port of Archangelsk darstellte.
Thus in early 1609 a Russian peasant army was formed to free as many of the Volga's cities as possible, including, among others, Vologda and Yaroslavl.
In 1812 the first permanent bridge (built near the Transfiguration Monastery) over the Kotorosl was finished, and by 1820 the city's Volga embankment was stabilized and turned into a large shaded promenade.
However, due to its location as a large transportation hub, and since the 1913-built railway bridge over the Volga in Yaroslavl was the only point at which to cross the river, the city became a major target for air raids during 1942xe2x80x931943.
In 1961, an oil refinery was opened and from the 1960s a large number of residential districts began to spring up all over the city, including, for the first time in the city's history, on the left bank of the Volga, where development had traditionally not taken place.
This left-bank development was further encouraged by the construction, in 1965, of a new Volga crossing for automobiles.
[35] Included in these preparations was the opening of a new bridge (in 2006) over the Volga; this is now known as the Jubilee Bridge.
The center is located on the northern bank of the Kotorosl River, where it converges with the Volga on the Volga's western bank.
The center contains the majority of landmarks and attractions in the city, including the Volkov Theater, the Church of Elijah the Prophet, the football stadium, and the Volga embankment and the monastery, which is often mistakenly called the kremlin.
On the other bank of the Volga lies Zavolzhsky City District.
Many Orthodox shrines and monasteries lie along the banks of the Volga.
The old town is effectively triangular in shape; this triangle is formed by the natural border provided to the south and east by the Kotorosl and Volga rivers, and on the land side by the geometric pattern of the street plan, which dates from the 18th and 19th centuries.
Volga Tower
The two municipal watchtowers which have been retained (the Vassily tower and Volga tower) were both positioned on the city's outer defensive walls which afforded them clear views of oncoming enemy forces.
At the end of Komsomolskaya Boulevard, upon which the trade rows are located, one finds themselves at 'Volkov Square' (xd0xbfxd0xbbxd0xbexd1x89xd0xb0xd0xb4xd1x8c xd0x92xd0xbexd0xbbxd0xbaxd0xbexd0xb2xd0xb0); where the ring-boulevard makes a slight deviation to the north-eat and carries on towards 'Red Square' (xd0x9axd1x80xd0xb0xd1x81xd0xbdxd0xb0xd1x8f xd0xbfxd0xbbxd0xbexd1x89xd0xb0xd0xb4xd1x8c) and the city's Volga embankment.
The Volga embankment is a good example of urban planning in the classicist style; built in the 1840s, this promenade walk has remained a favorite place for residents to take a stroll and relax ever since.
The southern part of the city center, around the area where the Kotorosl and Volga intersect, is an area abundant in green park-like spaces.
There is one railway bridge across the Volga and two road bridges; the second road bridge across the Volga was ready for use in October 2006.
Northern Railway headquarters are located on the city's Volga Embankment.
[63] The river port caters not only for larger river cruise ships which stop off in the city as part of their journey up/down the Volga, but also to a number of regular services which link Yaroslavl with Breytovo, Tolga, Konstantinovo, Bakarevo, and Novye Chentsy.
Even the river port on the Volga built in the 1980s does not interfere excessively with the town-planning composition.
Parts of the masonry fortifications have also been preserved in the northern and north-eastern section of the town, as well as the towers of the Virgin and Uglic, and the Volga Gates.
