The interactive program "Yakyn Duslar" will immerse you in the world of the ancient culture of the Tatar people.
Every nation of the world is unique, and its soul is unique, hidden in spiritual creativity – folklore.
All tourists have the opportunity to touch the age-old culture of the Tatar people from the very first minutes of their stay in Kazan.
15:00 White Stone Fortress tour.
The Kazan Kremlin is the main attraction of the city, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
It is the official residence of the President of the Republic of Tatarstan and the state museum—Reserve, which is visited annually by thousands of tourists.
The white—stone Kremlin is the heart of the ancient city, embodying the culture of the West and the east.
The minarets of the main mosque of the city of Kul Sharif soared up here (visit) and the domes of the oldest Orthodox Cathedral of the Annunciation sparkle with gold.
On the territory of the fortress there is one of the symbols of Kazan — the famous "leaning" tower of Hanshi Suyumbike.
16:45 Kazan Shrine.
Visit to the Kazan Monastery of the Mother of God, whose history is inextricably linked with the acquisition, glorification and veneration in Russia of the miraculous Kazan Icon of the Mother of God.
This icon is one of the most revered in the Russian Church.
They pray to her, they make requests to her.
At the same time, few people wonder which way the miraculous icon traveled and where it came from.
Almost a hundred years ago, in 1932, Kazan lost one of its main sites, the Cathedral of the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God.
But now, years later, the cathedral was erected on the site of the miraculous image, "returned" to its historical place, in its former appearance.
And it is difficult to overestimate the spiritual significance of such a re-creation.

20:30 Optional, for an additional fee: Evening bus tour of the city "Lights of Kazan". The cost of the tour is 1,500 rubles per tourist (the tour will take place with a minimum of 10 people).
