The Great Fire of London - 1666

The Great Fire of London is one of the most well-known disasters in history. The fire began on 2nd September 1666 in Tom Farriner's bakery in Pudding Lane. He was a baker to King Charles II. It lasted four days and burnt down over 13,000 houses. People lived in houses made of wood and straw that were close together, so the fire spread very quickly. Samuel Pepys, one famous diarist, and his men managed to put out the last fire on 6th September. Sir Christopher Wren designed a monument to remind people of the Great Fire of London. It stands near where the fire started.

The Kebin Earthquake - 1911

The south of Kazakhstan is located on a seismic active zone, so the area has had many powerful earthquakes. In 1911 the Kebin earthquake almost completely destroyed the city of Almaty. It happened on 3rd January and over 770 buildings collapsed in the city. Many historic buildings were damaged, but one famous building survived. It was the Ascension Cathedral in Panfilov Park. At 54m high, it remains one of the tallest wooden buildings in the world. Amazingly, it survived even though there aren't any nails in the entire building!

1. The texts are about two disasters. The Great Fire of London in 1666 started in a bakery and burned down over 13,000 houses. The Kebin Earthquake in 1911 almost completely destroyed the city of Almaty. The monument in the first picture was built to remind people of the fire. The cathedral in the second picture is related to the earthquake because it is a famous wooden building that survived it.

В текстах рассказывается о двух бедствиях. Великий лондонский пожар 1666 года начался в пекарне и сжег более 13 000 домов. Кеминское землетрясение 1911 года почти полностью разрушило город Алматы. Монумент на первой картинке был построен, чтобы напоминать людям о пожаре. Собор на второй картинке связан с землетрясением, потому что это известное деревянное здание, которое его пережило.
