    Pup Zemli

    A landmark that often gets overlooked. Which, of course, is no wonder: it is very easy to miss this belly button.
    The monument has no secret meaning, but the name speaks. The navel of the earth is the center. The word combination is also used here in this sense: the center of culture of the Perm region.

    Tserkov' Ikony Bozhiyey Materi Tikhvinskaya V Kungure

    There are many temples and cathedrals in Kungur. This is one of them. For a long time it was under restoration, but now the doors of the temple are open to visitors again.

    Museum of Merchant History

    Nearby there is a museum of local lore, and many tourists choose to visit it, but often more interesting is what is hidden from the eye and is in the shade. The Museum of Merchant History is exactly that case.
    Here you will learn about Kungur trade and industrial business, leather and footwear business, see the interior of the merchant's lounge, as well as other interesting expositions and antique items.
    Weekends are Monday, Tuesday.

    St. Nicholas Church

    Another massive and majestic temple in Kungur, but unlike the previous one, it is white stone. The architecture of the building as a whole also differs.

    Kungurskaya Ledyanaya Peshchera

    The pearl and the main attraction of Kungur. The Kungur ice cave and the village of Ermak located at its entrance.
    On a tour around the cave you will be told about Ermak. About occasional, but so necessary meeting of Ermak and this cave. Will tell a legend about queen Victoria's ladder, and also about hermit's grotto. At the end of the cave you will find the lake of three deceptions.

    Cafe "At Timofeich's"

    There is a cafe near the cave. That's where we'll go. We eat fast and go on the road. There are two more interesting locations ahead of us.
    The interior of an institution is executed in the present Russian style, we will eat in a log hut and even with bears!

    Ethnographic Park Chusovaya river history

    A park that went from being one man's hobby 40 years ago to a huge cultural center. It opened its doors to visitors almost 20 years ago.
    Numerous handicraft and blacksmithing workshops, a carousel park, wooden churches and five historical expositions, the main of which is dedicated to Yermak, are presented to your attention.
    It is better to book an excursion in advance and for a specific time, so you can not worry that the park will close or there will be no empty seats. You can do it here.

    Memorial Complex of Political Repressions "Perm-36"

    A complex dedicated to the victims of political repressions. If in the park on the Chusovaya river there is an atmosphere of celebration and fun, here there is an atmosphere of grief. A monument of great pain.
    Such places are very important so that people do not forget about such events and do not make mistakes again.
    The excursion and its time is also better to agree in advance. You can do it here.
    Opening hours: WT-WS: 9:00 - 18:00
