    You will spend the day visiting completely different, but very interesting and unexpected places.
    A tower on the bank of the Oka river, a fairy-tale wooden house and a mystical empty manor are waiting for you. Be sure that your phones or cameras will be replenished with dozens of great pictures. Such a trip will definitely be of interest to photographers and artists in search of inspiration.
    In order to visit the museum included in the itinerary, you need to travel on a weekday.

    Усадьба Приклонских-Рукавишниковых

    Beautiful, majestic and very picturesque deserted estate, also an excellent location for photo shoots or captivity. The mystical atmosphere is created by red bricks, high columns, oval vaults.
    The dominant feature of the entire location is the ruins of the church, built in classical force.
    Wander around the estate, you can even go inside some buildings, but be careful, the building is old and of course it is gradually being destroyed.

    Шуховская башня

    Unique, the world's only hyperboloidal multi-sectional power line support, which is a carrier mesh shell. Nowadays, it acts as an art object. The tower has been reconstructed and today is almost in perfect condition.
    You just get beautiful pictures here. The perfect geometry of the tower will look great on your social networks.

    Summer Dacha N.A.Bugrova

    A colorful house, as if descended from the pages of a children's fairy tale book. There are so many attractive details here that the building can be viewed endlessly.
    " Usually there's a museum in the cabin, but it's got a variable schedule. Find out if you can visit by phone: 8 831 364 1285
    Also, the museum is not open on weekends.
    If you can't visit the museum, don't get upset. A stroll around the neighborhood will be just as enjoyable.
