Russian "Tower of Pisa" and the City of Labor Valor
Today you have a long road to Nizhny Tagil, but to avoid tiring it, make a few stops at the most interesting sights. The first stop will be near the monastery, which was built on the site where the Soviet authorities hid the traces of a terrible crime. It was built relatively recently, in 2000. The next stop is by the tower, which is shrouded in legends and speculation. Here you will visit the museum inside this "falling" tower and find out what is true about it and what is a lie. In Nizhny Tagil you will have a fascinating walk through the most curious museums of the city.

The trademark of the Urals is the Russian Falling Tower. It was erected in the first half of the 18th century. To this day, there is still controversy about the tower, some argue that it was specially projected this way by order of Akinfy Demidov. Others believe that the tower was made slanted by ground waters that eroded the foundations.

Demidovs Museum
After lunch, go to the museum-estate "Demidov's Dacha.

Museum of Life and Crafts of the Mining Population
One more curious museum on the territory of the museum-reserve "Gornozavodskoy Ural".
Museum of everyday life and crafts of mining and smelting population of Nizhny Tagil "Gospodskiy dom" is a monument of architecture of the late classicism era.
In 1924, the famous work by Rafael "Madonna del Popolo", which is now in the Nizhny Tagil Museum of Fine Arts, was found in the Lord's House.
Today a large number of master classes are held here: "Magic Patterns on an Egg", "Twisting Doll", "Belt Weaving". But the most amazing thing that attracts visitors to the museum is the theatrical performances: "An Evening in the old house", "Journey to the world of crafts", "Christmas cave". If you prefer a more traditional pastime, visit one of the thematic excursions: "Crafts of Tagil land", "Folk games", "Bachka, kadka and ushat".
All excursions are carried out from Wednesday to Sunday and by preliminary appointment. You can choose which one suits you and make an appointment on website.
