Ah! I think that white fluffy stuff is from the Poplar shedding it’s seeds. I read that it is a big problem, especially with allergy sufferers.
Here’s one quick article about it in Moscow. I’m sure it’s not limited to there though.

Ah I see about the url thing. After I posted the second time, I thought it was something like that! Not a bad idea!
Allergies can really drag you down. Your next destination should aleviate that problem!

Good pictures of Ulan-Ude, but for somebody who’s not familiar with the city and wants to know more it’d be better to see more on every picture - like forests etc.
