I love the family photo album! I hate to see a family's photos get lost, or thrown away, because it's their history! Anyway, I enjoyed seeing those pictures very much. I could have spent a lot of time going through certain items - the post cards, coins, and well, all of it! :-) It's great that you took us along with you for this visit to a flea market. As we say in English, "One man's junk, is another man's treasure!" :-D
I LOVE the piano music. It is so beautiful. Thank you for showing us Valeria! It is al little bit sad, seeing that photo album. The person carefully putting the photos in, surely did not imagine the albunm ending up on a flea market.
Marco, you're right, but maybe there's no one left to keep this photo album . If the photo album turns out to be a lover of photography and history is better than in the trash....
My sister came into possession of a trunk full of old family photos. She was able to determine the family name. When she contacted the remaining family members, they were overjoyed to get the photos back. The trunk had been donated to charity after the relative who had it died, and none of his friends knew how to contact the living relatives.
When I was young I had a huge family. Now all gone. I knew many that sailed the oceans in a world that was only partially explored. I have thousands of historical and family photos & artifacts. When I die I suppose it will all end up at a flea market or the landfill. Not many in younger generations and none that are interested in days gone by.
It is interesting that the seller says you must buy something if you're going to film there. I don't know how he thinks he can enforce that. I was a little surprised to see insulin for sale at 2:40. It must not be illegal in Russia, but it sure is here in the States. I use the kind in the green tube. I found your handling of so many precious old items very reverent. It really touched me.
Thank you for the tour through the flea market, Valeria ma'am, it refreshed my memory of me buying the Soviet era coins, stamps, currency notes, military pins and lapels, sports achievement pins - all of which I purchased from a man selling these things on a footpath in Vladivostok (in 2012 when I visited). The man gave them away pretty cheap, and he even demanded an Indian souvenir from me in exchange ...ha ha ! I was not carrying anything of historical value (obviously), so I gave him a currency note of 10 INR (in use now too) , and he immediately recognized the bald person's figure printed on it (Gandhi)...LOL
Great, here's my list . I liked the coins, I'll take two please. Saw a cast iron water kettle, I'll take one please. I saw a very ornate cross, I'll take one please. I also collect old locks, the one's you guys were looking at, I'll take two please. Can't wait for tomorrow. As always, I really enjoy your videos. Thank you for sharing.
Mary Please... you and I know that we would have bought so much stuff we would be wondering how to carry it out. A lot of nice older items that we don't see here in the US. My artist friend would be in heaven with all the little keys, buttons and trinkets.
Thank you for posting such interesting videos. My grandparents emigrated from Russia. They died before I was born so I never knew them, except from pictures & stories from my parents. Getting to see Russia as you show it gives me a chance to see a bit of the the country where my family came from.
very interesting...one day everyone's memories, life, belongings....will be scattered across such markets, while one's body is silently decaying below the moist Earth. This makes you think a lot about a lot of choices which you are making....thanks for showing this market.....
Noticed coin collector albums with old coins. Are old Russian coins made out of silver and gold? Old USA coins were hard currency actually made of precious metals to back their face value. These coins were not fiat money as we have today.
Oh wow! I see so many things I'd buy there 😊 Coins, old photos, and postcards.... And the "bast shoes" look interesting too. I'm wondering if they have a history for those shoes🤓 Thanks for the interesting video😘
The music is so melancholic. Because the vendors were forced to sell their wares? I wonder how many were selling theirs items out of necessity and how many were simply unloading unwanted goods?
Majority - from the later batch. There are, however, people who trade at the flea markets for living. They collect old stuff from their neighbors, relatives, etc., often even rummage through garbage to find an interesting stuff, which they later clean, sometimes - repair and sell for a much higher price, they obtained it. Some even have a TH-cam channels about their adventures. :)
Ms. Kotunova! When you and your husband were looking at the old photo album, did you notice any names on it or the photos? Was there any indication of the family's history which might be unique? We knew an old lady (now long deceased) who came here in 1979 with her family (still among the living), and there are some resemblances . . . but goodness, it looks like it could be her family!
The post cards looked pretty good, but I agree too much money. I scrapbook too. I hope some day you can show us your work. Thank-You again for taking us flea marketing.
In summer a smaller flea market is working in the center of Moscow (in a hidden place) nearby Park of Culture metro station. Ask someone to find out the days of its operation on the Internet. Few years ago it was opened two or three days a week. There are actually more flea markets in Moscow and its outskirts. Search youtube by words (Блошиный рынок в Москве - flea market in Moscow)
This is so interesting! I've always wanted some of the Russian tea glasses in the holders. Looks like I would have been in luck at that market! The photo album really made me sad, though.
yes the picture book ,,, what history they must tell of a life long ago , when i am ask to buy something i give the person 1$ and ask them when were they were born , i walk away with something for my mine and they get some money , enjoy your weekend and as always BE SAFE , BE WELL , EVERYONE ,
Wouldn't it be wonderful if someone watching this knows someone in the photo album? And it could be returned to the family? Not likely, but it would be nice.
There is an old saying...One Man's Junk is another Man's Treasure !! We have the same type of "Flea Markets" in the U.S. I very seldom go to them. Too much trouble and be side's I have my own junk. Ha! Ha!
How strange it seems to see things or precious belongings of people like photo albums, medals etc ending up at a Flea market! None of these things hold any sentimental value for the families of next generations who probably just boxed everything and gave them away, while those who owned them are long gone. Yet, we continue to collect and acquire things, prize and what not, to only leave them behind....
I saw a little toy howitzer or maybe it was some model of anti-tank gun on the table near the beginning of the video.Vintage toys are highly collectible too.
This flea market has some of the the best stuff I’ve ever seen! I hope I can find one like it in Russia one day. Кто знает если они имеет такая базар Близко города Казань?
How poignant that the family photo album is for sale at a flea market. Who were they? What happened to them? And all the war medals? Who were the soldiers whose medals ended up for sale?
old people died, their apartment was sold/rented to somebody and the relatives/kids threw this stuff out. It is actually tragic. It also reminds me that life passes quickly and should not be centered around hoarding material goods....they will eventually all belong to somebody else anyways....once the owner has passed.....
Very Sad to see people Selling, there FAMILY possessions, just too ear.We have the same thing here in the USA. There called, Fea markets. Most are of ours, have many New items, some old. Lots of people ,from different countries..illegal immigrants, will go to them to buy their Children school clothes there. Very sad!
Wonder if Russian people love old paintings from their country by an artist named Stenka Rain .Very large painting with a tiny cossack man inside old frame.Why it was put thereyears ago is a question wanted to know for years. Painting at large monestary with women dressed in 1600 ? Clothes
Не знаю, кому как, а мне печально все это видеть и напоминает 90е. У меня в городе такого нет. Просто все запрещено, а полиция гоняет и штрафует любых желающих. Есть ярмарка в специально оборудованном месте, где все цивильно и чисто.
I have a question for everyone, Please someone correct me if im wrong. Is the reason why Russian people don't want to be filmed because of its horrific past of the KGB, and the Gulags and because of there hatred towards the Germans during WW2 and post war ww2? Are Russians afraid that Western spies or people of the West will recognize them and prosecute them?, for say war crimes, or for other means? I have noticed in a number of Russia videos and from certain Russian youtubers say that Russia has a very strict No Flimming policy.
Do you think every russian are involved in war crimes, KGB and all that stuff? I don't know what about russian youtubers, but people on flea market don't wanna get filmed because this market are spontaneous, people don't have any official permission to sell.
This is empty propaganda Western media is more profitable to consider through a microscope other people's tiny specks in the eye, and distract from their piled logs. In the GULAG sat less people than in the modern United States and most of them sat for violating the laws of the USSR and in U.S. prisons with people treated no better, and maybe worse than in the GULAG, and what is done in Guantanamo is medieval barbarism.The CIA is a much bloodier organization than the KGB and it killed a lot of us citizens and people around the world and it is Americans who are afraid of trial for war crimes and therefore threaten the judges of the international Tribunal in the Hague to impose sanctions against them, if they begin to investigate the war crimes of Americans in Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, where they bombed many schools and hospitals, as well as peaceful marches of citizens of these States. Are Americans afraid that they will have to answer for the rape of minors in Japan, Germany, Colombia, Britain. After the second world war hatred of Germans and Japanese. was strongest in the Anglo Saxon countries it can be traced even kinematografu
The guy in the video simply was trying to extort some money from Valeria, when he saw, she's filming, while speaking a foreign language. Quite possibly, he thought, she's a foreign tourist - a number one target for such attempts. As for people on the streets in general - well, I heard people in the US aren't usually happy, when some stranger deliberately films them without their permission. Is this because of horrific past of McCarthyism and FBI repressions? Or maybe it's just that - they feel uneasy when some stranger films them?
Thank you all for answering me. I hope I did not upset anyone or make for an un easy feeling that was not my intent. I just wanted to know why Russians didn't want to be filmed. I really thought it was in fear of being recognized and being prosecuted for war crimes. Im really sorry for any misunderstanding. I am a big fan of Valeria's youtube page Different Russia and enjoy her videos. Once again Thank you all for answering me.

Marco, I couldn't have said what you did any better.
Yes, the music has me feeling so nostalgic.

Wow. The photo album was wonderful!
the old pics were precious to someone's mother.
It's sad that what someone took such care to put together in the album ended up in a flea market for $5
Yeah, but that's how "old stuff" is...my family is dwindling too, heirlooms don't mean much to some people...
Very Nice.......I LOVE RUSSIA 100000% (from Baluchistan)
About the seller who wanted you to buy something. Was it explained to him, that he was getting free international advertising?
It is interesting that the seller says you must buy something if you're going to film there. I don't know how he thinks he can enforce that. I was a little surprised to see insulin for sale at 2:40. It must not be illegal in Russia, but it sure is here in the States. I use the kind in the green tube. I found your handling of so many precious old items very reverent. It really touched me.

The piano music adds a great touch to your vid. Keep up your great work. Thanks for sharing the beauty, culture and the wonderful people of Russia.
Nice hectic market n nice busy life 👍
That photo album was amazing. I would have bought that without asking any questions. Real people, real history.
Thank you for the video new subscriber from USA

Thank you for showing us this video, a great look at Russia from a different angle.
nice video+music. it would be much netter if you give more information about this market: location, how to get there and time of opening . thanks
It's always fun to see what is available in the markets. Thanks for taking me along. ;-)

These are some of your best videos. Very interesting, almost like going to a museum. Its a bit sad to see someone selling a family photo album though.
It is very interesting and I loved the old coins also. I want to make it to the end so I can see if you guys bought anything. lol

Very interesting Valeria my mother enjoyed all nice items
that photo album was beautiful....i would love it for my collection.
Coins, photographs, cutlery and countless other items -- looks a lot like American flea markets (in California, called "swap meets.") Great video!
I loved it! Plan on going to Russia soon for their beautiful museums but now I want to add a free market also.

Some of the flea markets where I live sell the old food, shampoo, laundry soap that has sat in the sun way to long, lol.
Thanks again! Can't wait to see your next one!

I see the handle pieces of a Mauser K-98 bayonet on one of these tables.
This is not a flea market. It's a way of life back in Russia. Five stars poverty...
Nice one
Should've gotten that melodica and started doing meme videos in addition to the other content. :p
Really nice
My kind of shopping!
Can anyone share me the location ..where that market is ..?
This flea market has some of the the best stuff I’ve ever seen! I hope I can find one like it in Russia one day. Кто знает если они имеет такая базар Близко города Казань?

. I think more likely these sellers are trying to make a little cash money (tax free) that they don't want the government to know about.
