Brewery
In the village of Azovo there is a private brewery where lemonades, kvass and beer are made. When producing the latter, the brewers strictly adhere to the recipe of 1742: only water, malt, yeast and hops. According to the majority, the beer from this brewery is the most delicious in the whole Omsk region. Take a couple of bottles with you to taste the hoppy beverage during an evening break.
The brewery is open every day from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m.

Amrin gully
Amrinskaya Balka is a small freshwater reservoir where you can swim and camp. You can get there for free, but there's no tourist infrastructure yet. So you have to take everything for overnight stay with you. Nevertheless, this place is very popular with the locals, who come to the lakeside for fishing and recreation in good weather.
