Rustic romance
Today you will go to the North of the country and get to the most authentic Russian village on the mysterious Verhnie Mandrogi Peninsula. The natives of these places, the Veps, have collected authentic peasant huts, looking for forgotten cultural and historical values. You'll get to touch the traditions of local culture and learn the life of a villager. Interesting, isn't it?

Музей Водки
The vodka museum with its huge assortment is very popular. Tourists from different cities come for the experience, bringing their specialty drinks to exchange and taking away the local hot drinks.
This is how the Museum of Russian Vodka replenishes its stash and creates new exhibitions with the beverages.

The exposition of the museum is small, but quite informative, especially if you are interested in the life of indigenous peoples. The museum is located on the site where Olonets fortress used to be, the building was built in the late XIX century as a merchant's house. The museum is surrounded by a park, and after the tour you can take a walk and breathe the fresh air.
