    Мураново

    On your way to the glorious town Pereslavl make a stop in the Muranovo estate. Here the Russian poet Evgeny Baratynsky spent several years of his life. A large manor house was built according to his drawings.
    Among the museum exhibits you will find ancient ceramics, a collection of letters and daguerreotypes - the first photographs created using silver plates and an obscura camera.

    Muzey Krest'yanskogo Dizayna "Kon' V Pal'to"

    The name might make it sound like a joke museum with some particularly amusing examples of naive art. But in this case, the first impression is deceptive.
    A modern, in some places interactive exhibition awaits you, and the objects of "rustic design", or, as we more commonly say, arts and crafts, will surprise you with their aesthetics.

    Сергиевская кухмистерская

    Get acquainted with the traditions of a merchant's meal at Sergievskaya kukhmistera.
    In the evening, the culinary museum will be closed, but you will have an opportunity to visit the Landry shop, where handmade sweets, natural honey, cookbooks and even antique tableware are sold.
    And afterwards you can have a delicious dinner with classic Russian dishes and drink tea from the samovar.
    Please note: the shop is open until 19:00, the cafe is open until 22:00.
