TOMSK, Jul 18 – RIA Tomsk, Olga Trepova. Student of Tomsk State University (TSU) developed service for visitors of entrants and other city visitors – routes across Tomsk "Gulyaj"; now four routes on city sights are available on the website of the project, the press service of the mayor's office reported on Wednesday.
"The guide was developed for the aid to entrants by the student of Faculty of Journalism of Tomsk State University Anastasia Lenshina. <…> As the developer noted, the emphasis in routes is placed on parks, squares of the city and monuments of architecture, several theaters and cafe are specified here", – it is said in the statement.

Four routes on sights of Tomsk are available on the website of the project. They are followed by comments, photos and the map which 2can be downloaded to phone and to walk, without being afraid to get lost.
"I was born and lived in Tomsk therefore I know the city well. And often I hear that we have no place to go. Yes, this is not St. Petersburg with canals and palaces but there are places to walk. <…> Of course, it is necessary to understand that the city isn't limited to four routes. This guide is some kind of push to further independent studying of Tomsk", – the press service of TSU cites Lenshina's words in turn.
Lenshina explains on the page in the social network VKontakte that the developers made the version only for the computer so far, "so it is better for you to believe, accept and not to try to open it with a mobile phone".
Duration of the routes is on average 3-3,5 kilometers, it is added in the message of the university. Search of investors and bringing a resource to the business project is in the long term. Service of the routes across Tomsk "Gulyaj" was created within the thesis on the TSU master program "New Media, Photojournalism and Media Design".
