The Susun Factory. Mint
Museum at the Mint. Once it was the only place where it was officially allowed to mint coins in Russian Siberia.
Be sure to take a guide. The cost of his services is symbolic, but the result of his work surpasses all expectations.

The Church of Peter and Paul
Go to the village Chingis, which is partially located on the island. Chingis was one of the first settlements on the territory of modern Novosibirsk region.
There is a white-stone temple on the island, which is the main attraction of the village, and not far from the ferry crossing there is a mysterious stone stove over 100 years old.

Café "Selena"
A stop for lunch in Iskitim. Locals recommend this particular café for its simple but tasty dishes. The menu includes cutlets, sausages, wieners, chicken and meat chops with any side dish you choose, soups, desserts.
Gaining strength, there are two more sites ahead. And both are abandoned.

Marble quarry in Iskitim
Second abandoned marble quarry. Not as authentic as in Peteni, but there is still a place to crawl and take pictures.
There are many abandoned buildings and businesses in Ikitim as a whole, right in the middle, but many of them are behind fences and some are under guard.

Mongolian and Buryat cuisine "Khan Buz" cafe
If you don't distinguish manty, boza and posi (these are the dishes on the menu) from each other, you should prepare yourself. Not far from Novosibirsk there is an authentic restaurant of Mongolian and Buryat cuisine.
