"My wife liked the wolf (that's why I gave it 4 runs), but for me there's nothing special about it, I didn't immediately realize it was a wolf😁. The monument is located away from all the attractions, on the hotel grounds.
It took about 25 minutes to walk from Lenin Square.
There is a monument to a Tambov merchant next to the wolf"

"A magnificent wolf and the wonderful words: "When you bring joy to people, the Tambov wolf is your comrade." A stunning sculpture dedicated to the city's symbol. The installation location was also cleverly chosen."
