Coldest Place on Earth (-71°C, -96°F) Why do people live here? | Oymyakon
(Eli from Russia) April 1, 2022. No fooling, I spent several days with the locals of the Russian village of Oymyakon, Russia (Yakutia/Sakha Republic) and the world's coldest inhabited place.

I thought that the only thing people do here is survive and suffer the cold. I was very wrong. Here's what I found out about the locals.

There are Buddhists in Russia?

Historically, Buddhism was incorporated into Siberia in the early 17th century [1, 2]. Buddhism is considered to be one of Russia's traditional religions and is legally a part of Russian historical heritage [3].

Besides the historical Buddhist monastic traditions of Buryatia, Tuva, and Kalmykia (the only Buddhist-majority republic in Europe), Buddhism is now spreading all over Russia, with many ethnic Russian converts. More
