In the afternoon, go for a walk in the museum-reserve of S.A. Esenin. The first attraction on your way is Yeseninykh Estate. It is located in the heart of Konstantinovo village and was built in 1871 by Sergey Esenin's grandfather. The poet loved this place very much and came back here again and again. On the territory of the estate there is a barn, where he loved to be alone and work on his works. In 1970 a park was laid out near the Jeseniny estate and his favorite trees were planted: birch, rowan, maple. The reserve is closed to the public on Monday.
