People who think that everywhere is everything the same are not right. The best thing is to get a local guide, especially if you just want to get to know the city. If you don´t have that opportunity, well, can be different. You can never know what is good to do and what is not in another country. You know your place but not everythere is the same as at home. I am originally from Kazan and I know what kind of city it is. There are both good and bad people, as everywhere. But to distinguise that you have to know the place and people there. You will never see the differences if you don´t know them. Often it is also luck, some people have luck.. some not. I think for you.. you just didn´t have it. There are a lot of nice people here and I know people from different countries of the world who remember time in Kazan with a good feeling. Some of them even turn back again. Good luck you next time, wherever you go and wherever you are!
