History Museum of the city of Irkutsk them. AM Sibiryakova

Museum

The History Museum of the city of Irkutsk them. AM Sibiryakova is a treasure trove for anyone eager to delve into the rich tapestry of Siberian history. Established in 1782, it proudly holds the title of the oldest museum in Siberia and serves as a gateway to understanding the region's past.
It's a good Museum, the staff is super friendly and patiently explains stuff. They really give you a good insight into the early life in Russia. They have a lot of things from that bygone era .The only issue that i found was everything is in russian and the staff doesn't really know English either. I can't explicitly blame then for it because having lived there not many people speak in English. But if you know a bit of russian and want to kill sometime learning I'd recommend it

I liked learning about the city, but not great
Tole C — Google review
(Translated by Google) The museum is for those who are not familiar with the history of the city or know it superficially. I wasn’t bored, since I was talking with the curator almost the entire time of the inspection, but... The materials and exhibits that were presented there were clearly not enough for me. In almost every room I would like to add something, correct something. I liked the models of temples, churches, the Ascension Monastery, the panoramas of the fort are excellent. Of the original exhibits, of which there are very few, I liked a lady’s dress from the early 20th century; I was surprised by the ID of the railway worker’s wife; a hundred-year-old ophthalmologist’s suitcase, as if it had just been brought from the ophthalmologist’s office😂; schoolgirl's lunchbox; ladies' cane for straightening skirts. The general impression, like last time, is that the museum is relatively young and the museum luminaries have given here everything that is worthless to them. (Original) Музей для тех, кто не знаком с историей города или знает её поверхностно. Мне скучно не было, так как почти все время осмотра беседовала с хранителем, но.. Тех материалов и экспонатов, что там представлены для меня было явно недостаточно. Почти в каждом зале я хотела бы что-то дополнить, исправить. Понравились макеты храмов, церквей, Вознесенского монастыря, панорамы острога отличные. Из подлинных экспонатов, которых ну ооочень мало, понравилось платье дамы начала 20 века; удивило удостоверение жены железнодорожника; столетний чемодан офтальмолога, как будто его только что принесли из кабинета окулиста😂; ланчбокс гимназистки; дамская трость для того, чтобы поправлять юбки. Общее впечатление, как и в прошлый раз, музей относительно молодой и корифеи-музеи отдали сюда всё, что самим негоже.
Наталья С — Google review
(Translated by Google) They try very hard, but it’s somehow uninteresting. The guides don’t really know anything, only their program. And the program is very meager; the entire chain of events of historical moments is not traced. Yes, there is an exhibition of ancient artifacts, yes, then the Buryats suddenly appeared (in clothes of the 19th-20th century), and then the prison, then Bering, then the 19th century. But it is not clear when there was a fire, when the Buryats began to live, where they came from here, who these ancient people were, when the Glazov coast developed, and in general how the city districts were formed, by whom and when the architectural monuments were built. It seems like there is a piece of this, a piece of that... But the overall picture doesn’t add up. Now, if I don’t know the history of the city at all, then from a visit to the city history museum (!), I probably won’t learn anything except the founding date (169th year - what, from what date, what is this number), that some people have been here not very famous, and it is unknown when and what events took place during their visits, I do not learn anything about the fire, about the researchers of Lake Baikal, the North, the builders of the Circum-Baikal Railway, or about their significance in the life of the city. Well, it’s not enough. Komon. What if I want to know more? The museum seems to give the answer: look, we have branches, but what to see in these branches? I don’t know if they would even hang a portrait of Ya. Pokhabov, even if it was an imaginary one. Eh. (Original) Очень стараются, но как то неинтересно. Экскурсоводы ничего толком не знают, только свою программу. А программа очень скудная- не прослеживается вся цепочка событий исторических моментов. Да, есть экспозиция древних артефактов, да, потом Буряты внезапно появились(в одеждах 19-20го века), да потом острог, потом Беринг, потом 19й век. Но не понятно, когда был пожар, когда стали жить Буряты, откуда они тут взялись, кто эти древние люди, когда развивался Глазовский берег, да и вообще как формировались районы города, кем и когда построены архитектурные памятники. Вроде есть кусочек того, кусочек того... Но общей картинки не складывается. Вот если я не знаю историю города совсем, то из посещения музея истории города(!), пожалуй ничего и не узнаю, кроме даты основания(169й год- чего, от какой даты, что это за цифра), что здесь бывали некоторые люди не очень известные, и неизвестно когда-какие события происходили при их посещениях, не узнаю я ничего о пожаре, о исследователях Байкала, Севера, строителях КБЖД, ни о значении их в жизни города. Ну как то маловато. Комон. А если я захочу узнать больше? Музей вроде как дает ответ: ищите, у нас есть филиалы, но что смотреть в этих филиалах? Не знаю, хоть бы портрет Я.Похабова повешали, хоть бы воображаемый. Эх.

Nicely decorated Orthodox Church in a tranquil compound, away from traffic noice. Every ceiling and wall painted or mounted with carving. An active place of worship with an valuable relic in a glass case. Directions: take trolley bus number 3 from front of Irkutsk Art Museum on Lenin Street. Alight after the traffic circle, cross the street, and walk back towards the city center. After about 50 meters, look for a steel fence between a block of apartments and a modern glass building. Just after the fence, turn right and walk towards the river. You can cut through the apartments to get to the Nunnery.

Another beautiful cathedral. Youalso might have a look at the monument of the Russian Columbus who made a trade way between Rusland and Alaska.
Arno B — Google review
(Translated by Google) An unambiguous historical attraction of a regional scale: in addition to the charming Church of the Sign, the curious will find in the monastery the burial places of famous people: the navigator Shelikhov, the Russian writer Valentin Rasputin and the Decembrists who died in Siberian exile. In the park in front of the monastery there is a monument to Admiral Kolchak. Minus: do not try to get here on foot from the Angara embankment. Due to the lack of crossings, you will have to risk your life and cross a very busy highway! Be careful and use the bus or taxi! (Original) Однозначная историческая достопримечательность регионального масштаба: помимо очаровательного Знаменского храма любопытствующий найдет в монастыре захоронения известных людей: мореплавателя Шелихова, отечественного писателя Валентина Распутина и скончавшихся в сибирской ссылке декабристов. В сквере перед монастырем установлен памятник адмиралу Колчаку. Минус: не пытайтесь попасть сюда пешком со стороны набережной Ангары. Из-за отсутствия переходов через развязку придется рисковать жизнью и перебегать очень оживленное шоссе! Будьте осторожны и пользуйтесь автобусом или такси!
Peter W — Google review
(Translated by Google) It is located somewhat far from the center of Irkutsk. Although it is not flashy, it is a quiet and simple monastery. Inside the monastery, there is the tomb of the Decembrists and a small tomb of Catherine, the wife of Trubetskoy, one of the leading figures in the Decembrist Rebellion. If the time is right, you might be lucky enough to hear the bells of the spire. (Original) 이르쿠츠크 중심지에서 다소 떨어진 곳에 있습니다. 화려하지는 않지만 조용하고 소박한 수도원입니다. 수도원 안에는 데카브리스트의 무덤과 데카브리스트의 난의 주역중 한 사람인 트루베츠코이의 아내 예카테리나의 작은 묘지가 있습니다. 시간대가 맞다면 운 좋게 첨탑의 종소리도 들을 수 있습니다.
Алексе́й — Google review
(Translated by Google) It is the oldest monastery in Siberia and was founded in 1689. They say there are many Decembrist tombs, but I couldn't check them in detail. Perhaps because it is a bit far from the center, just being here makes me think of many things. (Original) 시베리아 지역에서 가장 오래된 수도원으로 1689년에 세워졌습니다. 데카브리스트의 무덤이 많다고 하는데 자세히 확인해볼수는 없었습니다. 중심지에서 조금은 벗어나 있어서 그런지 이곳에 있는것만으로 여러 생각이 들게 합니다.

Pamyatnik Admiralu Kolchaku

Mentioned on 
2 lists 
Monument
Sights & Landmarks
Pamyatnik Admiralu Kolchaku, located at the intersection of Karl Marx and Lenin streets, is the former headquarters of Admiral Kolchak's counter-revolutionary army during the civil war. This monument is a significant historical site associated with Admiral Kolchak, who led the White Army in an effort to protect Tsarist Russia.
(Translated by Google) A picturesque place. The only monument to Kolchak in Russia for sure.... Nearby there is a beautiful temple. One caveat.... it’s quite difficult to get to it on foot... there are no pedestrian crossings through the roundabout. The traffic is very intense. Recommendation for those walking along the embankment to cross the suspension bridge at shopping centers and on the right side, go around the roundabout or hire a taxi. (Original) Живописное место. Единственный памятник Колчаку в России точно....Рядом находится красивый храм.Один нюанс....пешком до него довольно сложно добраться...нет пешеходных переходов через развязку на кольце.Движение очень интенсивное.Рекомендация гуляющим по набережной перейти через навесной мост у торговых центров и по правой стороне обходить кольцо или нанять такси.
Валентина М — Google review
(Translated by Google) He was the leader of the White Army trying to protect Tsarist Russia and was arrested in Irkutsk while fighting against the Red Army, the Bolshevik Revolutionary Army led by Lenin, and was executed by firing squad. During the days of the communist Soviet Union, he was branded a reactionary and his name could not even be mentioned, but times have changed, and now the statue stands tall like this. It is in front of the Znamensky Monastery. The battle between the White Army led by Kolchak and the Bolshevik Red Army was also made into the movie The Admiral. (Original) 제정러시아를 지키려는 백군의 지도자로 레닌이 이끄는 볼쉐비키혁명군인 적군에 맞서 싸우다 이르쿠츠크에서 체포되어 총살로 생을 마감한 인물입니다. 공산주의국가인 소비에트연방 시절에는 반동분자로 낙인 찍혀 이름 조차 언급하지 못했을 인물인데 시대가 바뀌어 이렇게 동상이 우뚝 서있습니다. 즈나멘스키 수도원 앞에 있습니다. 콜착이 이끄는 백군과 볼쉐비키 적군간의 전투는 영화 <제독의 연인(The Admiral)로도 제작되었습니다.

(Translated by Google) A simple metal cross with an information sign is located on a small cape at the confluence of the Ushakovka and the Angara. From a historical point of view, the memory of this place is undeniable. Disadvantages: it is not easy to get here (especially in winter), and there is a boat station and enclosures with guard dogs nearby, who will be happy to bark at you all the way there and back, and at the cross itself. PS. and why do they always forget that Pepelyaev was shot along with Kolchak? (Original) Незамысловатый металлический крест с информационной табличкой расположен на небольшом мысу у места впадения Ушаковки в Ангару. С исторической точки зрения памятность этого места несомненна. Минусы: сюда непросто добраться (особенно зимой), и рядом лодочная станция и вольеры со сторожевыми собаками, которые вас будут рады облаивать и на протяжении всего пути туда-обратно, и у самого креста. PS. и почему всегда забывают, что вместе с Колчаком был расстрелян Пепеляев?

(Translated by Google) A good monument to a bright, complex and controversial (during the Civil War) man. It is located opposite the site of a possible execution (documentation from that time is not very reliable). Nearby is a monastery. (Original) Неплохой памятник яркому, сложному и неоднозначному (в период Гражданской войны) человеку. Находится напротив места возможного расстрела (документация той поры не очень достоверна).

Александр ( — Google review
(Translated by Google) A controversial monument, especially for Irkutsk, but the sculptor is exceptionally talented and fully infused into the image of Kolchak the idea of the controversial nature of what he had done. The location is good - there is a church nearby, a local diocese. If the idea of reconciliation takes root in Russia without paralyzing the country, it will be good. (Original) Небесспорный памятник, особенно для Иркутска, но скульптор - исключительно талантлив и вполне вложил в образ Колчака идею небесспорности совершенного им. Удачное месторасположение - рядом церковь, местная епархия. Если идея примирения приживётся в России, не парализуя страну, это будет хорошо.

Tiny Museum about the historic tea trade from Asia to Irkutsk & Moscow situated upstairs from the Tourist Information Office. Some interesting historic artifacts. All of it in Russian though. The nice lady there did her best to explain some of the things on display in very limited English. A bit like the "Museum of City History that is the building across from the tourist office it's probably not worth a specific visit but if you're passing by or visiting the tourist office it's worth a quick look.

The House Museum of Prince Sergey Volkonsky in Irkutsk offers a glimpse into the life of the exiled Decembrist prince and his wife, Maria. Visitors can explore the family dining room, original staircases, drawing room, and an exhibition room with portraits of Maria and other Decembrist wives. The museum also hosts musical performances that recreate the social life experienced by the exiled Decembrists and their wives.

Siberian history and champagne Went there for a tour for Siberian history on exiles and their wives. Wasn't really too interested. When the performers were singing opera, I wasn't too interested too, then they popped the champagne and we found that many people on our tour were quite old and didn't want to drink it. So the few younger people on the tour all had a few refreshing glasses! Yippee.

This museum ist just about fashion of the Dekabrists time and about the noble Volkonskiy family. Absolutly no information about the Dekabrist movement, their ideas and goals, no political information at all. So if you want to know about the banned nobles in Sibiria and the privileged life and the good things they did for the region, it might be a good museum. But a comparison to the banned poorer people and any political information are missing. There is also hardly anything in English, as in most Russian museums. But even in Russian, the explanations are very old fashioned, as far as I could understand them. This is history as it was thought in the 1st half of last century.

History Museums
The Irkutskiy Oblastnoy Istoriko-Memorial'nyy Muzey Dekabristov, located in the ancient city of Irkutsk, is a small yet comprehensive museum that offers a glimpse into the lives of the Decembrists. Housed in an 18th-century Archangel Michael log church, this museum showcases items and appliances used by the nobles who were exiled from the capital to Siberia.
Brilliant Museum telling the story of the history of the Decembrist movement in Russia. It is made up with the rubetskoy House-Museum and the Volkonsky House-Museum12. From my research the Trubetskoy House-Museum is situated in the former home of Prince Sergey Petrovich Trubetskoy, and showcases personal belongings, documents, and artifacts. The Volkonsky House-Museum is in the former residence of Prince Sergey Grigorievich Volkonsky and offers a glimpse into the life of the Volkonsky family and their contributions to the Decembrist movement. Both museums provide a rich historical context for the Decembrist movement something I had only the vaguest knowledge of. It is a must see.

(Translated by Google) Irkutsk, the ancient city representing Siberia, cannot be discussed without mentioning the Decembrists. At its center is the Decembrist Memorial. Young officers from Russian nobles who fought a war against Napoleon, who invaded Russia with an army of 600,000, and entered Paris in pursuit of the fleeing French army, experienced freedom and equality there, and returned through national awareness and led the abolition of serfdom. He attempted a revolution with the goal of establishing a constitutional monarchy or republic, but ultimately failed and was deprived of his noble status and was exiled to Siberia, where he spent more than 10 years of forced labor in the Nerchinsk mines. After being pardoned, you can see traces of his settlement and life in Irkutsk. You can also feel the tearful sorrow of the women who gave up their noble status and followed their husbands to Siberia, a penal colony. I think that the fact that Irkutsk today can be called the Paris of Siberia was possible because of the Decembrists and their wives who built schools, hospitals, theaters, etc. and had infinite love and devotion for farmers and native people. You can feel through the Decembrist Memorial that the city of Irkutsk is not simply a gateway to Lake Baikal. (Original) 시베리아를 대표하는 고풍스러운 도시 이르쿠츠크는 데카브리스트를 빼놓고는 논할 수 가 없습니다. 그 중심에 데카브리스트 기념관이 있습니다. 60만 대군을 이끌고 러시아를 침공한 나폴레옹과의 전쟁을 치루고 도주하는 프랑스 군을 추적하여 파리까지 입성한 러시아의 귀족 출신의 젊은 장교들이 그 곳에서 자유와 평등을 맛보며 민족적 자각을 통해 돌아와 농노제 폐지와 입헌군주제 또는 공화정을 목표로 혁명을 시도하였으나 결국 실패하고 귀족 신분을 박탈당한 체 시베리아로 유배되어 네르친스크 광산 등에서 10년 이상 강제노역을 한 후 사면되어 이르쿠츠크에 정착하여 살았던 흔적을 볼 수 있습니다. 또한 귀족신분을 포기하고 남편을 뒤따라 유형지인 시베리아로 온 부인들의 눈물겨운 순애보를 느낄 수 있습니다. 오늘날 이르쿠츠크가 시베리아의 파리로 불릴 수 있게 된 것도 데카브리스트들과 아내들이 학교와 병원, 극장 등을 세우고 농민과 원주민들에 대한 무한한 사랑과 헌신이 있었기에 가능했다고 생각합니다. 이르쿠츠크라는 도시가 단순히 바이칼호수로 가기 위한 관문이 아니라는 것을 데카브리스트 기념관을 통해 느낄 수 있습니다.

(Translated by Google) Viktor Tsoi (Цой, Виктор Робертович) I happened to see Viktor Tsoi's mural on Instagram about Irkutsk and decided to visit. This painting was painted on the exterior wall of a building inside the “Art Factory Dorenberg” and is located relatively close to the Znamensky Monastery. Since it is not a tourist attraction widely known to Korean travelers, not many people visit and it was not easy to find, but the staff at a nearby auto repair shop kindly gave me a ride in the car, so I was able to get to my destination comfortably. Dorenberg is like an artist's village, with work spaces and exhibition halls inside and an outdoor stage outside, where various events such as film festivals and craft beer festivals are often held. I think it's well worth a visit. (Original) 빅토르 최(Цой, Виктор Робертович) 우연히 이르쿠츠크에 관한 인스타그램에서 본 빅토르 최의 벽화를 보고 꼭 방문하기로 결심을 하였습니다.

There is also an exhibition space, and preparations for the party are in full swing as it opens today. In addition to artists' residencies, some buildings are used as offices for various design professions. Does that outdoor space become active at night? Looks perfect for an outdoor party. There is Victor Choi graffiti in building number 5. A wood-fired pizza shop in the basement of the same building. Came in for blood.

Lisikhinskiy Park is a pleasant location for strolling and exercise, although it lacks sufficient amenities for children aged 3 to 4 years, such as sandboxes, a small slide, and a carousel. Additionally, the park could benefit from designated areas for biking, rollerblading, and scootering. However, the park's recent reconstruction has enhanced its aesthetic appeal with increased greenery and well-placed flower beds and benches for relaxation.

(Translated by Google) Unique, I couldn’t imagine that a museum of this level could exist in Irkutsk! Interesting, multi-faceted and pleasant environment. My friend and I really enjoyed the excursion, we learned a lot of new things and are fans of herbal remedies and prevention)). Particularly memorable were the expositions of India, Persia, Russia, aromatic oils from all over the world, and of course the stand with the selection of auspicious stones and herbs according to the horoscope))). Thanks to the guide Tatyana the Mudra! We will definitely come back again! I tell my friends and acquaintances about the opening of the year! (Original) Уникальный, не могла представить, что такого уровня музей может быть в Иркутске! Интересный, многогранный и приятная обстановка. Нам с другом очень понравилась экскурсия, узнали много нового и зафанатели по травяным сборам и профилактике)). Особенно запомнились экспозиции Индии, Персии, России, аромамасел со всего света, и конечно же стенд с подбором благоприятных камней и трав по гороскопу))). Спасибо экскурсоводу Татьяне Премудрой! Непременно вернёмся снова! Рассказываю друзьям и знакомым, как об об открытии года!

(Translated by Google) This is less of a museum and more of a specialized store selling herbal teas and extracts. It is not within walking distance; you need to take a long bus ride towards the airport. Therefore, if a person is specifically inclined towards a museum, he will be disappointed by the paucity of “exhibits”. But here you can buy different teas from the shores of Lake Baikal. (Original) Это скорее не музей, а специализированный магазин по продаже травяных чаев и экстрактов. Находится не в пешей доступности, нужно долго ехать на автобусе в сторону аэропорта. Поэтому если человек настроен именно на музей - он будет разочарован скудостью "экспонатов". Но зато здесь можно купить разные чаи с берега Байкала.

(Translated by Google) Finally visited this place. I had a good walk around the museum, two options for the excursion: quick and long. I took it quickly and didn’t regret it. the guide gave a quick overview of the exhibits on display, answered questions, talked about herbs and plants, stones and other minerals. It was good and educational. In the end I bought various things for the house. From a piece of obsidian to a couple of varieties of tea from Baikal herbs. I liked it. You have to understand, this is a private collection! Cool. I recommend! (Original) Посетил, наконец-то, это место. Хорошо погулял по музею, два варианта экскурсии: быстро и долго. Взял быстро, не пожалел. экскурсовод провел экспресс обзор представленных экспозиций, отвечал на вопросы, рассказывал про травы и заводы, про камни и прочие минералы. Было неплохо, познавательно. В конце накупил разного в дом. От куска обсидиана, до пары сортов чая из Байкальских трав. Мне понравилось. Надо понимать, это частная коллекция! Круто. Рекомендую!

Specialty Museums
The Ice-Breaker "Angara" Museum in Irkutsk is a tribute to the hero ship of Russia, known for its icebreaking work and Arctic exploration. Built in 1895, it was the first icebreaker on Lake Baikal, connecting the Trans-Siberian Railway. The museum also features the Sukachev estate with a permanent memorial and art exposition dedicated to Sukachev's life and work.
Really cool to see interior of the ship, you can basically explore all the machines. There is also a 7 minutes video that talks about ship history. Everythin is in Russian, but stuff is nice and kind.
Roberto C — Google review
An interesting museum in a great city. Look past the fact that this isn’t the richest museum and it isn’t the richest city and you’ll find a ship with a very interesting history presented in an interesting way. For the minimal fee you’ll see the engine room and a collection of black and white photos from the ship’s heyday, as well as the dark years before it was floated again and restored. Oh, and a very entertaining dubbed video replete with low budget re-enactments. In summer there’s a great coffee shop next door, and a waterski park. The views of the damn and the city skyline are great all year.

Khrustal'naya Skazka is a winter wonderland that promises an unforgettable experience for families and thrill-seekers alike. With its stunning ice slides built over water, visitors can enjoy ample space to relax and have fun. While this year features only one slide open, the atmosphere remains lively with various paid attractions like sledding, a train ride, and even Baba Yaga's house!

In general, a place for children of course. Adults (couples) will find it a bit boring. But there is a skating rink and go-karting nearby, which is definitely more fun.

(Translated by Google) We went in the evening, when it was already dark, the illumination was impressive: the towers sparkle, almost all the slides and ice sculptures are illuminated 🤩 But, if you have a gentle, unsportsmanlike, but ambitious child, you most likely will not like it - the slides are very steep, it’s scary to slide down for the first time even for an adult! For this reason, our evening was completely ruined - the whole evening my daughter whined that she wanted to go for a ride, but because of fear she couldn’t, that we had come in vain, she didn’t like everything. In the end, she decided to slide down with me, but she was SO scared that then she became hysterical. I didn’t persuade, I explained that this was normal, that you were scared, I would have been one hundred percent at your age. I didn’t go, but the roller coaster beckoned, it was clear that this was the main action. In short, we were exhausted))))))) The problem with the Crystal Tale is the lack of an intermediate version of the slide... there are only very cool ones for adrenaline lovers or very childish ones that will be of interest to children under 3 years old. I really liked the concave ice pools with balls, from which you can get out with a rope 👍 you can buy an ice cube on the spot for 100 rubles if you forgot yours. (Original) Ходили вечером, когда уже стемнело, иллюминация впечатлила: башни сверкают, почти все горки и ледяные скульптуры подсвечены 🤩 Но, если у вас нежный, неспортивный, но амбициозный ребенок, вам, скорее всего, не понравится - горки очень крутые, 1й раз страшно скатиться даже взрослому! По этой причине наш вечер был напрочь испорчен - весь вечер дочка ныла, что хочет прокатиться, но из-за страха не может, что мы зря приехали, ей все не нравится. Под конец она решилась скатиться вместе со мной, но ей было ТАК страшно, что потом случилась истерика. Я не уговаривала, объясняла, что это нормально, что тебе страшно, я бы в твоём возрасте сто проц. не поехала, но горки манили, было ясно, что это основное действие. Короче, мы намучились ))))))) Проблема Хрустальной сказки - отсутствие промежуточного варианта горки... есть только очень крутые для любителей адреналина или совсем детские, которые будут интересны детям до 3х лет. Очень понравились вогнутые ледяные бассейны с шариками, из которых можно выбраться с помощью верёвки 👍 на месте можно купить ледянку за 100 р., если свою забыли.

Prince Vladimir Temple

Mentioned on

Russian Orthodox church
Sights & Landmarks
Churches & Cathedrals
Nestled in Irkutsk, the Prince Vladimir Temple stands as a remarkable Orthodox monastery that dates back to 1888. Established to commemorate the 900th anniversary of Russia's baptism by Prince Vladimir, this architectural gem was funded by merchant Litvintsev. While it may not boast extravagant features, its pristine white facade and serene interior create a tranquil atmosphere that invites reflection. Although somewhat off the beaten path for travelers, visiting this historical site is truly worthwhile.
(Translated by Google) The church isn't fancy, but it doesn't look shabby either. The pure white exterior and interior have a calm atmosphere, enough to make you feel reverent. It is a place that is not well known to travelers, but it is worth a visit at least once. It is a few tram stops from Kazan Church. Above all, the icons of the family of Russia's last emperor, Nicholas II, were impressive. (Original) 교회는 화려하지 않지만 초라해 보이지도 않습니다. 순백색의 외관에 내부도 차분한 분위기여서 경건한 마음이 생길 정도입니다. 여행자들에게 잘 알려지지 않은 곳이지만 한 번쯤 가 볼 만한 가치가 있습니다. 카잔교회에서 트램으로 몇 정거장 떨어진 거리에 있습니다. 무엇보다 러시아의 마지막 황제 니콜라이 2세 가족들의 성화(икона)가 인상적이었습니다.

(Translated by Google) Far from tourist routes. The cathedral is more than 150 years old. Once upon a time there was a monastery. After restoration, it continues to be restored. The walls inside have not yet been painted. It's calm and quiet inside. There is construction going on around the cathedral. The construction fence doesn't add much to the decor, but the building is beautiful. (Original) Далеко от туристических маршрутов. Собору более 150 лет. Когда-то был монастырь. После реставрации, продолжает востанавливаться. Стены внутри еще не расписаны. Внутри спокойно и тихо. Вокруг собора идет стройка. Строительный забор не сильно украшает, но здание красиво.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful place, friendly staff, tasty and interesting dishes, but that’s where the positives end. This establishment has karaoke. My wife and I went to see what karaoke was like. We entered the hall, we liked the atmosphere, we asked how much it cost to sing a song, we were told 500 rubles per person for 2 hours. We decided to think first and choose the song we would like to sing. We went up to the restaurant area. We found 5 different songs and went back to the karaoke room. The DJ didn’t have these songs, so he suggested downloading the apps and choosing from what was available. We sat down at a table there, downloaded applications, we could barely get internet, and connected to the local Wi-Fi. There were a lot of songs in the proposal, but nothing suited us. We politely said that we could not find anything suitable and began to get ready to leave. A security guard came up to us and said that we were charged 1000 rubles for visiting the karaoke room. We refused to pay because no one told us about this in advance. What about visiting the hall and staying in it for more than 10 minutes, it costs money, and not for the fact that you sing songs. They began to threaten us, put moral pressure on us, that if we did not pay the bill, we would call the police, and that they allegedly told us the prices in advance. For security reasons and further proceedings, we had to pay the bill, since our plane was about to depart. We made an overnight transfer in Irkutsk. I really don’t recommend this establishment, they deceive and profit from tourists. She showed us the rules of the restaurant after visiting the karaoke room when they presented the bill. (Original) Красивое место, доброжелательный персонал, блюда вкусные и интересные, на этом плюсы заканчиваются. В этом заведении есть караоке. Я со своей женой пошли посмотреть, что представляет из себя караоке. Зашли в зал, атмосфера нам понравилась, спросили сколько стоит спеть песню, нам сказали 500руб с человека за 2 часа. Мы решили сначала подумать и выбрать песню которую хотели бы спеть. Поднялись в зону ресторана. Нашли 5 разных песен и спустились обратно в зал с караоке. Этих песен у диджея не оказалась, он предложил скачать приложения и выбрать из того что есть. Мы там же сели за столик, скачали приложения, интернет еле ловил., подключились к местному вайфаю. В преложении песен было много, но нам ничего не подошло. Мы вежливо сказали, что не смогли подобрать ничего подходящего и начали собираться уходить. К нам подошёл охранник и сказал, что с нас за посещение караоке зала 1000руб. Мы отказались платить, так как заранее нам об этом некто не сказал. Что за посещение зала и нахождения в нём более 10 минут, стоит денег, а не за то что ты поёшь песни. Нам стали угрожать, морально давить, что если не оплатите счёт то вызовем полицию, и что нам якобы заранее сообщали расценки. В целях безопасности и дальнейших разбирательств, пришлось оплатить счёт, так как у нас был скоро вылет самолёта. Делали ночную пересадку в Иркутске. Очень не рекомендую это заведение, обманывают и наживаются, на туристах. Правила ресторана нам показалу уже после посящения караоке зала когда предьявили счёт.

(Translated by Google) I highly do not recommend this establishment, they profit from visitors. We went to this establishment because it was close to the airport where we had a layover. We decided to go to karaoke there, we were told that the visit was paid, 500 rubles for two hours. We went out to think, picked out a few songs that we would like to sing, came back, and I immediately told the waitress that we first want to find out if there are songs that we want. She said that now the person who does this will come up to us and tell us. We waited, he came up, we gave him the list, he searched for a long time, checked, but there was nothing. He suggested we look at their assortment, we looked, but didn’t find anything interesting, and decided to leave. A security guard stopped us at the exit and began to demand that we pay 1000 rubles for staying in the premises. We explained to him everything as it was, that all this time we were just waiting for it to become clear whether there were suitable songs there, he called the waitresses, but they were all in cahoots, at the same time, they demanded that we pay. Otherwise they demanded that the police be called. We ended up having to pay for nothing at all in order to quickly leave the premises and catch our flight. (Original) Крайне не рекомендую это заведение, наживаются на посетителях. Зашли в это заведение, поскольку оно недалеко от аэропорта, где мы делали пересадку. Решили сходить там в караоке, нам сказали, что посещение платное, 500 рублей за два часа. Мы вышли чтобы подумать, подобрали несколько песен, которые хотели бы спеть, вернулись, и я сразу сказала официантке, что мы сперва хотим узнать, есть ли здесь песни, которые мы хотим. Она сказала, что сейчас к нам подойдёт человек, который этим занимается, и скажет. Мы дождались, он подошёл, мы дали ему список, он долго искал, проверял, но ничего не оказалось. Он предложил ознакомиться с их ассортиментом, мы посмотрели, но ничего интересного не нашли, и решили уйти. У выхода нас остановил охранник и стал требовать чтобы заплатили 1000 рублей за пребывание в помещении. Мы долго объясняли ему всё как есть, что всё это время просто ждали, когда выяснится есть ли там подходящие песни, он вызвал официанток, но они все были в сговоре, заодно, требовали, чтобы мы оплатили. В противном случае требовали вызвать полицию. Нам пришлось в итоге заплатить вообще ни за что, чтобы скорее покинуть помещение и успеть на рейс.

(Translated by Google) Nice atmospheric place. I got a table with fish in a jar. The tables are nearby, but zoned with curtains, bars and lighting. The staff is helpful. When I sat down at the table to read the menu, they immediately put me a glass of water with lemon without question. Nice! And given the hot weather, it’s urgent. Overall, cozy and tasty. By the way, there was so much salad on the plate that I thought I couldn’t handle it. If only it weren’t expensive... I definitely recommend it! (Original) Приятное атмосферное место. Мне достался столик с рыбкой в банке. Столики рядом, но зонированы занавесками, решётками и подсветкой. Персонал предупредительный. Когда я сел за столик прочитать меню, мне сразу без вопросов поставили стакан воды с лимоном. Приятно! А учитывая жаркую погоду, и насущно. В целом, уютно и вкусно. Салата, кстати, в тарелке было такое количество, думал, не справлюсь. Если бы ещё и не дорого... Рекомендую однозначно!

Zapovednoye Pribaykal'ye, also known as Baykalo-Lenskiy, is a unique destination cherished for its warm and welcoming locals. Visitors are greeted with genuine friendliness and a sense of community that is truly heartwarming. The area's inhabitants have their own special customs and traditions, including a healing ritual involving the sucking of scabs to promote instant recovery. This extraordinary practice adds to the allure of this exceptional place on Earth.
The thing I love most about Baykalo-Lenskiy truly is the locals who come and greet you when you arrive. They were so friendly, after they greeted me they grunted at each other in their common language and began to suck on the various scabs on my body, they were instantly healed. I am very grateful for this. Without this healing my brother would still call me scabby and pick my scabs and put them in his Cinnamon Toast Crunch®.

Buddhist Stupa, located on Ogoy Island, is a serene and peaceful site that offers breathtaking views of Lake Baikal. This stupa was established in 2005 and has become a popular destination for tourists. Visitors often engage in traditional practices such as walking around the stupa, tossing coins, and tying ribbons. Despite being a tourist attraction, the area exudes tranquility and provides an opportunity for introspection.

(Translated by Google) Buddhist pagoda on ogoy island We visited by hovercraft, cost 4400 rub per person. South Island tour starts from 2:00 p.m. - 6:00 p.m. and takes 4 hours. Traveling by hovercraft is comfortable and fast. Few tourists, private, only 7-8 people on the whole trip. Walking distance is approximately one km. But the walkway is steep and the weather is negative. You must use a lot of strength. The view above is calm and beautiful. (Original) เจดิย์พุทธบนเกาะ ogoy เรามาเที่ยวโดย hovercraft ค่าใช้จ่ายคนละ 4400 rub ทัวร์เกาะใต้เริ่ม 14.00 - 18.00 ใช้เวลา 4 ชม. การเดินทางโดย hovercraft นั่งนิ่มสบาย และ รวดเร็ว นักท่องเที่ยวน้อย เป็นส่วนตัว ทั้งทริปมี 7-8 คน เท่านั้น ระยะทางเดินประมาณหนึ่งกม. แต่ทางเดินชันและอากาศที่ติดลบ ต้องใช้กำลังมากพอสมควร วิวข้างบนสงบ สวยงาม

(Translated by Google) The stupa was opened in 2005. Tourists come, run circles around it, throw coins, knit ribbons, I think this has nothing to do with their worldview and religion, rather it is a tourist site, but the place is very peaceful, it offers stunning views of Lake Baikal. (Original) Ступа была открыта в 2005 году. Приезжают туристы, наматывают вокруг нее круги, кидают монеты, вяжут ленты, думаю, это никак не связано с их мировоззрением и вероисповеданием, скорее это туристический объект, но место очень умиротворяющее, открываются потрясающие виды на Байкал.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful places, beyond words, they are so good! How pure, crystal, euphonious the air is! The aromas of herbs enter the very heart through the respiratory tract, enveloping you in a veil of happiness. This incredible state of silence, happiness, peace, satisfaction is collected on the tiny island of Ogoy, which is located on the Small Sea of ​​Lake Baikal Just don’t smoke or litter on the island, don’t spit or swear. Peace and goodness to everyone (Original) Красивые места, не передать словами, настолько они хороши! Как чист воздух, кристален, благозвучен! Ароматы трав через дыхательные пути входят в самое сердце, окутывают пеленой счастья Это неимоверное состояние тишины, счастья, мира, удовлетворения собрано на крохотном островке Огой, что находится на Малом море озера Байкал Только не курите и не сорите бычками на острове, не плюйте и не материтесь. Всем мира и добра

(Translated by Google) The stupa was installed under the direction of a Bhutan lama in 2005 and is dedicated to the most wrathful of the feminine energies of the Buddhist teachings. We were there in the winter, there was no souvenir shop there, which everyone writes about here. The climb is not difficult. (Original) Ступа установлена под руководством ламы из бутана в 2005 году и посвящена самой гневной из женских энергий учений буддистов. Были зимой, никакого сувенирного магазинчика там не было, про который все пишут здесь.Подъём не сложный.

(Translated by Google) Every year we come to Baikal, this is the second time 😊 and we come here all the time. A very strong place. Beautiful views from above, you can walk the entire island up and down... Very soulful! (Original) Каждый год приезжаем на Байкал, уже второй раз 😊 и все время приезжаем сюда. Очень сильное место. Красивые виды сверху, можно пройти весь остров вдоль и поперек... Очень душевно!

(Translated by Google) For me, as an Orthodox Christian, the place is not sacred. But the visit itself is interesting because of the story about Buddhism and the beauty of the place itself. (Original) Для меня как Православного место не является сакральным. Но само по себе посещение интересно и рассказом о Буддизме и красотой самого места.
