The legends say that this spirit is very big and its body enrings the island like a snake. The head of Khubanannuh is on the western part of the… island and its tail goes to the sea, creating boarders of its posessions – the protected living zone for people, animals and plants. In the morning one can see strange traces on the sand of the seashore. People say it is Khubanannuh coming out of the sea to check its land.

Khubanannuh is very kind to all beengs of the island but can be very dangerous for those who come with bad intentions. Last time Khubonnanuh has a new duty – to protect the island against commercial tourism and the spirit seems to be really competent in it.:)

We were glad to take part at the  international festival of ethnic music Krutushka 2011, which takes place in Tatarstan close to Kazan-city.
The festival is good known for the good ethnic music:
as for traditional root music

as for  music based on russian folklore and world-fusion.

The cosy location between river and forest close to the beautiful blue lakes helps to create a very warm and cosy atmosphere there.

Another thing which makes the festival unique espacially for Russian area is that alkohol is forbidden on the festival. So no random people are there, only one who is really interested in ethnic music, art  based on ethnic elements and in traditional handcrafts.
Here a small photo report:
