A bronze compass rose is embedded in a dark grey speckled granite slab
MomentA bronze compass rose is embedded in a dark grey speckled granite slab. The compass rose has directional markers for North, South, East, and West, labeled "N", "S", "E", and "W" respectively, in circles. The cardinal directions are also labeled with Russian text. Around the outer edge of the compass rose, in a circular band, are names of cities and distances in kilometers. These include "МОСКВА 2347 КМ" (Moscow 2347 km), "НОРИЛЬСК 607 КМ" (Norilsk 607 km), "КРАСНОЯРСК 1411 КМ" (Krasnoyarsk 1411 km), "ЕКАТЕРИНБУРГ 1325 КМ" (Yekaterinburg 1325 km), and "ИНКУТСКА 2164 КМ" (Irkutsk 2164 km). In the center of the compass rose, there is text that reads "НОВЫЙ УРЕНГОЙ" (Novy Urengoy) and below it "KILOMETRE ZERO". The granite slab is surrounded by small, light grey and some brown gravel. The lighting suggests it is daytime. The image is taken from a high angle looking down at the compass rose.
