Our journey begins with a sightseeing tour of Irkutsk.
Irkutsk is the capital of Eastern Siberia, the "Siberian Paris", as it was called, the city of merchants and Decembrists.
Churches, mansions, old houses.
We will introduce you to the history of our city.
After exploring the Siberian city, the group goes to Listvyanka village.
The village of Listvyanka is located at the source of the Angara River and stretches along the shore of Lake Baikal for 5 kilometers.
The village got its name because of the large number of larch trees growing around.
Listvyanka can rightfully be called the gate of Lake Baikal, for many tourists it is here that the acquaintance with the great lake begins.
On the way, we will visit the ethnographic open-air museum complex "Taltsy".
The museum recreates the cultural and everyday life of the Siberian village of the 17th and 19th centuries.
Here you will see the estates of wealthy peasants, the Spasskaya Tower of the Ilimsky ostrog, the Parish Council, the parish school, the temple of the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God of the 17th century.
What is especially interesting is that each courtyard of the museum has its own exposition, you can go into each house and plunge into the atmosphere of those times.
Lunch is waiting for us in the restaurant on the territory of the museum.
Then we continue on our way to Listvyanka.
We will stop at the source of the Angara, the only river that flows out of Lake Baikal, and see the Shaman Stone, covered with myths and legends.
After check-in at the hotel, free time.
Dinner on your own (in the village of Listvyanka there is a wide variety of cafes and restaurants).
