Unexpected discoveries in Yaroslavl

We have breakfast on the Volga river embankment. It's beautiful, majestic and calm here. Maybe it's also because there are a lot of churches and monasteries around here. The food is delicious, kind, well cooked. And so that our breakfast doesn't go smoothly into lunch, we open up and move on.

The Kotorosl River flows into the Volga. And here on its bank, near the botanical garden named after K.D.Ushinsky, there is the Planetarium. In the planetarium it is possible to order excursions from the simplest for children, to the deepest for people who are fond of astronautics. The cultural and educational center is dedicated to Valentina Tereshkova, the first woman who flew into space. In clear weather you can look through a telescope.

On the river Kotorosl, when it flows into the Volga, there is an island called Damansky. And there is an amusement park. You can get to the island by the bridge, there you can rent bicycles, ride boats, catamarans, swings, merry-go-rounds, there is a room for laughter and many different entertainments, especially for children. You can safely spend the whole day there and you will not notice, besides there is a cafe on the territory, so that no one will be hungry. We went for a walk and a boat ride. Of course, we took pictures.

Not far from the island, also on the Volga embankment, we decided to have lunch. The menu is interesting, the interior is unusual and beaten around the Russian furnace. Deliciously prepared dishes will surprise even a gourmet. They were served steplessly, but quickly.

The local art museum is famous far beyond Yaroslavl. That's why we couldn't stay here and not visit it. It is located in several buildings.
In the museum you can see works of Russian, European and Eastern art. It also hosts exhibitions and concerts of classical and contemporary music. Wonderful works of Old Russian painting, of which the most famous icon "The Savior of the Almighty" of the XIII century is. There are also sculpture, carving, casting, paintings by D. Levitsky, I. Repin, K. Bryullov, I. Levitan, K. Korovin, V. Perov, I. Aivazovsky, B. Kustodiev. Sculpture, collections of porcelain and glass. Numismatics. If it were our will, we would have been there more than one day.
Monday is the day off for visitors.

There is a museum of amusing sciences in Yaroslavl, where it is interesting not only for children, but also for adults. Entertaining physics and chemistry, molecular cuisine. And this is not all. Take a guide, and you will definitely like it.

And so, after an active knowledge of science and art, I wanted something of a kebab. Let's go here and be happy with the result. We had dinner, took a shish kebab with salad and appreciated the dish. It's very good that you can order such a dinner for a change.

We'll spend the night in Yaroslavl, so after dinner we go to the hotel.
