　　If you think it is cold where you are at the moment, then a visit to the Russian village of Oymyakon might just change your mind.

　　With the average temperature for January standing at －50 ℃， it is no wonder that the village is the coldest inhabited settlement in the world. Known as the “Pole of Cold”， the coldest temperature recorded in Oymyakon is －71.2 ℃， which is the lowest recorded temperature for any inhabited location on earth.

　　Ironically, Oymyakon actually means “non­freezing water”due to a nearby hot spring. Most homes in Oymyakon still burn coal and wood for heat and enjoy few modern conveniences.

　　Nothing grows there so people eat reindeer (驯鹿) meat and horse meat. A single shop provides the town's bare necessities and the locals work as reindeer­breeders, hunters and ice­fisherman.

　　The village is located around 750 metres above sea level and the length of a day varies from 3 hours in December to 21 hours in summer. And despite its terrible winters, in June, July and August temperatures over 30 ℃ are not uncommon.
