The Congress Hall (Bashkir: Конгресс Холл (Congress Hall)) is the Government House in Ufa, built for the 450th anniversary of the accession of Bashkortostan to Russia.
Its architecture is characterized by the use of spatial, formal, coloristic prototypes of Bashkir culture for the formation of a modern national architecture. The epitome of this style became glazed facade with Bashkir ornament, looking at the Belaya River.
The BRICS summit was held in Congress Hall in 2015.
