Tatarlarga - "For Tatars"

Sirin Hafizov dropped us a note to fill us in about his Tatar Cultural Webpage.
It's in Cyrillic in Tatar.

There is alot of content concerning music and Tatar Folk Music.

Gateway to California Tatars

When we're talking about Northern California Tatars, we're talking about Burlingame, California, which is approximately twenty miles south of San Francisco. Broadway is in the neighborhood of the Bina of the ATTA (American Turko Tatar Association).
