Oymyakon village is known as the coldest village in the world, with the lowest temperature of 7 1 degree. Is it true?/You don't say.

People's desires are always insatiable. In summer, they miss the coolness of winter, but in winter, they expect the hot summer to come soon. Fortunately, we can still look forward to it, and we can wait until these seasons alternate. Even if we look forward to it, there is no alternation in some places. It's like this all the year round. In the impression of many people, the coldest place in the world should be the South Arctic Circle, because it is basically barren, but if you understand it,

This place is Oymyakon, and many people may not have heard of it. Located in Siberia, with an area of only 422 square kilometers, it is called the coldest village in the world. You may not imagine how cold this village is, and it is called the cold pole in the northern hemisphere. The lowest temperature can reach -7 1.2 degrees, which is not affordable for ordinary people.

But there are still many people living in this village. Speaking of which, I have to admire the cold resistance of these people. They can still live in such a cold environment for so long and have not moved away. However, it is reported that this village was not inhabited before, and it is a temporary rest place for some reindeer people. Later, it gradually developed into a village, and now there are more than 500 people living in this village. To outsiders, it is almost impossible to survive here, but the world is full of miracles. In this game between man and nature, people often try their best to overcome it and win the final victory.

In such a cold place, it is naturally impossible to grow any plants, let alone vegetables. The disciples here have been frozen forever, and there is no material at all, so people here can hardly eat any vegetables, only some meat, and the most meat they eat is fish. And because the soil is frozen, there is no way to build a house on the frozen soil. After all, when the house is hot, the soil melts and the house collapses.

So the buildings here are more than one meter above the ground, and in order to prevent the cold, they set up a heating station, otherwise the water pipes will freeze, and the doors and windows are set up with four or five floors. Even so, the weather is still very cold. It is precisely for this reason that people here have different lifestyles from ours. People here have refrigerators, but they are not used to freeze things, but to thaw them. Cars are available, but they must work 24 hours a day, or the engine will freeze. Such hard living conditions have unexpectedly made people here, because this village is a longevity village, and because it has been eating animal milk for a long time, it has a good mentality and is easy to satisfy.
