We will meet at the Petrozavodsk railway station under the clock on the main building from the platform (according to the arrival time of train No. 18 Moscow — Petrozavodsk).
We go to a restaurant for breakfast to immediately set ourselves up for a great adventure.
The buffet is at your service — here everyone will find a treat to their liking.
Let's get on the buses and go on an adventure!
The first stop is the Kizhi Museum—Reserve. This is not only a famous island, but also presentation and exhibition centers and huge funds that are located in the capital of the Republic of Karelia - in the city of Petrozavodsk.
Throughout the year, exhibitions dedicated to the historical and cultural heritage of the region are exhibited here.
Here we will not only get acquainted with the expositions of the museum, but also take part in a master class on Karelian crafts.
We have lunch and, accompanied by our guide, go for a walk along the Onega embankment. Believe me, there is something to see here!
The Petrozavodsk Embankment is a real open—air sculpture museum.
The sculptures are gifts to the city from the twin cities of Finland, Germany, the USA, France, Norway and Sweden.
The acquaintance with the city ends, and we take buses to the Cloudberry base (about 1 hour on the way), where we spend the outgoing year and celebrate the new year.
The recreation center "Cloudberry" is located among the centuries-old ship pines on the picturesque shore of the Syamozer, one of the largest and most beautiful lakes in Karelia.
Here you can forget about the intense rhythm of urban life, enjoy the clean northern air, relax your soul and feel inner peace.
Let's go check in and have dinner.
After dinner, we rest a little, and in the late afternoon we participate in a master class on cooking Karelian wickets. We not only sculpt, but also taste.
Kalitka is perhaps the most "national" and very favorite dish of Karelian and Vepsian cuisine. This is an open patty stuffed with potatoes, porridge or red fish, made from rye (or a mixture of rye and wheat) flour.
There is still a little time left before bedtime, we can walk around the recreation center or go to our rooms.
Tomorrow we will have a busy day, so we need to rest properly and gain strength.
