Yakutsk. Houses on permafrost...

Permafrost takes approximately 25% of the total ground area of ​​the globe. The history of the permafrost started 1-2 million years ago. The most ancient frozen stratas were found in the Kolyma lowland in the north of Yakutia. Therefore Yakutia called the cradle of the permafrost.
