From camel rides to an introduction to Russian life
The first stop is Nomad Ethnopark in the open air. Explore the life and traditions of nomadic peoples, meet camels and Mongolian yaks, taste Buryat buuza and Uzbek lagman.
Afterwards, you can stroll through picturesque Abramtsevo, where dozens of the most talented Russian artists and writers have worked. Then you can stop by cozy Sergiev Posad, look at Trinity-Sergiyev Lavra from the height of Blinnaya Mountain, glance at former monastery stables and, finally, finish your day with the culinary master class in the atmospheric kukhmisterkoy.

Этнопарк Кочевник
We are going to the real camel farm. We will ride camels (there are 14 of them), meet Mongolian yaks, take a ride in a reindeer or dog sled.
We will have a lunch in the yurt with the dishes of nomadic peoples (bouzy, lagman, stew of venison). We will drink Mongolian herbal tea with crispy brushwood and, as it is proper for nomads, hit the road again.
Important: the ethno park works only on weekends and Fridays from 10:00. Payment at the park is made in cash.
Tickets can be purchased online.

Абрамцево
The great Abramtsevo, which has been on our ears since our school years. Remember "The Girl with Peaches" by V.A. Serov and "Alyonushka" by V.M. Vasnetsov? The famous paintings were painted here.
We can walk around the estate on our own (except the main manor house) or choose one of the excursions with a creative workshop for children from 3 years old. Tickets to the main manor house can be purchased online.
Monday, Tuesday and the last Thursday of each month are days off.

Сергиевская кухмистерская
There's a very special museum waiting for us. Are you ready?
Get to know the old kitchen appliances and try them out in a master class on how to make scented Landrin lollipops.
Then we will move to a cafe, where we will try Russian cuisine cooked according to the recipes of the 19th-20th centuries. We will finish our meal by tasting tea from a hollow samovar.

Смотровая площадка
How about a leisurely stroll around Sergiev Posad?
Let's climb Pancake Mountain or, as the locals say, "Blinka". The area used to be famous for its pancake houses. You can imagine, to regale oneself with local pancakes was as important as to bow to the relics of Sergius of Radonezh!
Alas, nowadays we can't treat ourselves to it, but we can easily admire Trinity-Sergius Lavra in all its beauty from above.
