In his latest Instagram video "Build a skatepark in Kazan Kremlin" Rizayev shows off his skills as a BMX-rider.

The place where the video was made makes it especially interesting: Irek is riding near the buildings of the Kazan Kremlin which date back to the 10th century. 

"A new way of sightseeing," as one viewer wrote.
