A lot of people are now complaining harsh winter cold in their respective cities. But you might be surprised that the residents of Oymyakon, Russia are getting temperatures as low as -67.8 degrees Celsius. This town is known to be the coldest inhabited place in the world.

The village rests at the bottom of a valley and is surrounded by tall mountains. In fact, it's good that the village is surrounded by mountains because it somehow shields the residents from the harsh and cold winds.

According to The Telegraph, the average temperature in Oymyakon is around -37 to -50 degrees Celsius. The nights are so cold and dark but people got used to it like it's just another normal day. Due to the really cold weather, growing season is really short so people resort to growing livestock.

The residents of Oymyakon mostly eat fish, horse and reindeer meat and milk. According to Your amazing places, the place doesn't have any signal so don't expect that this is going to be an easy place to live in.

You can't also leave your car off if it's not inside a heated garage because the cold will do so much damage to your car. Most residents just leave their engines running 24 hours to keep the car heated. Aside from that, toilets are even located outside because the indoor plumbing systems get frozen.

However, it's ironic that the coldest town in the world is named Oymyakon because it literally translates to "unfrozen water" according to The Weather Channel. But the town got its name because the place has a thermal spring in the surrounding area. It's where reindeer herders spent most of their time to keep their flocks warm.

Another interesting fact is that summer time in Oymyakon, which are usually short, can reach around 15-25 degrees Celsius which is actually quite warm. It's also weird that the locals are even complaining about the warmth of summer.

For those people in their nice heated house complaining about the cold winter, then you might want to save a thought for the village of Oymyakon. This village is the coldest inhabited place in the world but they're not complaining about it.
