从萨马拉州进入乌里扬诺夫州地界，当地人民用面包和盐隆重欢迎中国代表团。

穿着民族盛装的姑娘双手捧着托盘，上面铺着绣花的白色面巾，里面放着大圆面包和一小包盐。当中国代表团进入乌里扬诺夫斯克市，俄罗斯人民用大列巴（俄式面包）和盐向客人表示了最高的敬意和最热烈的欢迎。

当地时间6月20日，参加第三届中俄青年论坛的中国代表团163名成员应俄方邀请，乘车来到距离萨马拉论坛营地140公里的乌里扬诺夫斯克市，这里是著名的马克思主义者、革命家、政治家列宁的故乡。1870年4月22日，弗拉基米尔·伊里奇·乌里扬诺夫出生于沙皇俄国伏尔加河畔的辛比尔斯克（1924年为纪念列宁该市更名为“乌里扬诺夫斯克市”），列宁是他参加革命后的笔名。

孩子们沐浴着阳光在喷泉池边嬉水玩闹，国旗迎着伏尔加河上吹来的清风招展，老式电车依循古旧的轨道从街上驶过……乌里扬诺夫斯克市列宁纪念馆前的广场，市民和游客在这里享受幸福当下、缅怀革命先驱。

位于乌里扬诺夫斯克市的列宁纪念馆用栩栩如生的实物、图片、说明和场景再现等，系统翔实地展现了列宁生平及其领导的社会主义革命和建设事业的光辉历程。中国代表团团长、重庆市政府外事侨务办处长范青向青年们介绍，列宁及其开创的事业给20世纪初期灾难深重的中国带来了希望，为中国共产党领导下的中国人民解放事业和社会主义建设事业提供了方向、目标和强大的精神动力。

中国青年代表团成员、共青团重庆市委青年干部江洋表示，参观列宁纪念馆帮助中国青年了解和铭记中俄共同抗击法西斯侵略的辉煌历史，更加坚定了我们热爱祖国、维护和平、反对侵略的理想信念，我们要积极投身到中俄友好和维护世界和平的事业中来。

纪念馆指南、中文网站，以及中文语音导游和展品标牌，让中国游客更好地了解相关展品和历史背景。据纪念馆负责人介绍，在当地高校的中国留学生为纪念馆的翻译工作提供了帮助。当天，参观列宁纪念馆的中国代表团全体成员瞻仰了列宁塑像并敬献了花篮。

乌里扬诺夫斯克市是乌里扬诺夫州首府所在地，该州也是俄罗斯伏尔加河沿岸联邦区下辖的14个联邦主体之一。如今，列宁博物馆和列宁故居等是乌里扬诺夫斯克市乃至该州对外交往的名片，也是当地旅游资源的重要组成部分，每天都有世界各地的游客前来参观。

夏季的乌里扬诺夫斯克满目绿色，宽阔的伏尔加河将城市一分为二。市内建筑基本保留前苏联时期的风格，虽然算不上繁华，但这座城市让人感到幽静、质朴。晚上，乌里扬诺夫斯克市举办了一场中俄友谊之夜文艺演出，热情的乌里扬诺夫斯克青少年用精彩的俄罗斯歌舞，迎接远道而来的中国客人。俄方青少年邀请中国青年代表一起跳起俄罗斯传统歌舞，欢乐的气氛感染着在场的每一个人。
