Съездил в командировку в Горький. Сейчас он, конечно, называется Нижний Новгород, но было бы здорово оставить старое название. Во-первых, не было бы путаницы с Великим Новгородом. Во-вторых, представьте, какая интересная эмоциональная энергетика в названии Горький.
И местные это всячески обыгрывают. Помимо просто повсеместного исторического наследия есть, например, сеть кофеен «Сладкий Горький», а в отеле подавали чай «Горьковский».
Много чего не успел, не посмотрел, был буквально на пару дней по работе. Даже в метро не спустился. Но чувствуется хороший туристический потенциал, обязательно сюда вернусь.
Из-за особенностей рельефа часть города находится на возвышенности, а часть в низине. Поэтому да, есть верхний Нижний Новгород, и нижний Нижний Новгород. Но Горький всё равно круче.
В детстве я слышал такую шуточную загадку: дракон-сладкоежка съел все города, но один оставил, какой?
