    Spend the weekend with pleasure and get acquainted with the most interesting museum expositions of Minusinsk, Sayanogorsk and Shushensky. The first stop on the way will be a private museum, where cars, motorcycles, bicycles and other equipment of the USSR times are collected, then we'll head towards the museum-reserve "Shushenskoye", where we'll see the exposition devoted to Lenin's exile to Siberia, and in Sayanogorsk we'll touch the ancient times, looking at the artifacts found at the archaeological site.
    I recommend to go on a trip on Saturday, because on Sundays the museum "Automobiles and Motor vehicles of the USSR" does not accept visitors, and the local history museum Sayanogorsk closes an hour earlier.

    Next stop - Shushenskoe
    This is where Lenin lived during his exile to Siberia. The museum is dedicated to this event and to the life of a Siberian village of the late 19th century. It includes the exposition "Lenin's exile in Siberia" and "New Village", where manors of the late 19th century were recreated.
    In the memorial part of the museum most of the houses were built at the end of XIX century. In two of these houses Lenin lived during his exile.
    In the buildings the living conditions of Siberians are recreated, the occupations of peasants, crafts and trades are shown.
    You can visit the museum on your own or on tour.
