Yakutia – the coldest village in the world: At a time when the whole of India, especially the northern region, is suffering from extreme heat, there are some parts of the world where it is always cold. It’s not that there are no cold regions in India, but our extreme cold is far less than those parts of the world that experience really unstable winters. A village named Yakutsk in Russia is considered to be the coldest inhabited place in the world. The minimum temperature recorded here is minus 83 degrees Celsius.

The village of Yakutsk is located in the Siberian desert. A temperature of minus 40C° is considered a ‘hot’ afternoon at this location, and a temperature of minus 68C° is considered tolerable. Life here is like living in a deep freezer. Everything here is covered with snow and smoke. The lifestyle of the people living here is very challenging, you will be surprised to know. Yakutsk is located 5000 kilometers east of Moscow, the capital of Russia.

The main task is to heat the house
Although it may be difficult for many of us to spend some time here, the Russian village of Yakutsk is a beautiful place, reports The Sun. The first thing people here do after waking up in the morning is to collect firewood. Then burn that wood in the bonfire and make the home environment livable. The houses here are made only of concrete, which can withstand the extreme cold weather. Houses are kept warm during the nine snowy months using large quantities of wood.

Besides heating homes, finding potable water when the temperature drops below zero is the second most difficult task. To protect themselves from the cold, people here wear more clothing, often made of woolen, warm fur. People always have to wear thick shoes, they cannot live a moment without them.
