Awesome shooting range! You can shoot with everything from pistol to sniper. The instructor only speaks Russian but he's good at explaining for non-russian speakers without words. Museum is nice but don't expect to spend more than 2 hours max (excluding shooting range visit). 1 star off because the staff gave a million excuse to avoid giving us the discounts they have for students.

Mind-blowing. A must visit for enthusiasts or people looking to gain more knowledge.

Very interesting place. Lots of history about Kalashnikov, Mosin-Nagant, and many other small arms. In the basement, there is a shooting range the likes of which I had never seen. I got to shoot about everything they had. Great day.

Nice museum on the inventor of the AK-47. Shooting range in the basement. For a few dollars you can try the famous gun (plus a few others)

the famose weapon museum in Izhevsk. if you want to shoot something by using like AK47, remember to take your drive license, no matter it's foreign or local.

Personally I am not interested in wepones but it was Interesting to see how the popular RK family was developed over time

It was so great if you are in ishevsk you should go ons there its a real hero's history

What a marvelous Cathedral. Stunning from inside and outside. It was such a blessing to be present there.

18th century church with 19th and 21 century touch because It was erected between 1897 and 1915, demolished by the Soviets in 1937 and then It was rebuilt to Charushin's original designs in 2004-2007.

Stunning.... well kept..crown of a very welcoming city.

It's amazing. Love it so much

Such a beautiful place.

Good place

(Translated by Google) A beautiful and majestic cathedral. Any time of the year. Positive energy, I highly recommend visiting. There is beauty and tranquility inside, well-groomed surroundings. I always come in when I'm in Izhevsk. Thanks to those who restored such a treasure (Original) Красивый и величественный собор. В любое время года. Позитивная энергетика, очень рекомендую к посещению. Внутри красота и умиротворение, вокруг ухоженная территория. Захожу всегда когда бываю в Ижевске. Благодарность тем кто восстановил такое сокровище

It is a small place for foreigner but it is a big place for Izhevsk. They takes unneceserry extra money for see some animals but also you can see good animals btw they are looking good

A very nice place to walk around and watch big animals.

Well organized zoo with a lot of great variety of animals along with detailed explanations for each and every animals habitat scientifically. All details are available in Russian and English, as well as for visually impaired people. A must-see zoo when you are in Izhevsk.

I was amazed to see different species of animals together. The Zoo has species of animals from Asia to Africa. A perfect place for children to visit. It was a very charming experience. Highly recommend people to visit and enjoy the nature.

I don't like places like this. I've been there once with a little sister of mine, but I wouldn't go there alone. No way. I don't wanna pay to see how other beings are suffering. For me it's almost the same as slaughterhouse but it's just more stretched in time,

Not a fan of zoos. Animals looked weak and the monkey enclosures were very cramped. What are those African monkeys doing here? Meerkats' enclosure was very small.

It's nice but doesn't really have all the animals, Just few animals are available there like lion, lioness, tiger e.t.c

Clean n beautiful

(Translated by Google) This morning we visited the literary museum of M.I. Tsvetaeva. It is marked incorrectly on Google, it is located on Kazanskaya Street, house 61. The cost of visiting is 250 rubles/person, free for schoolchildren. I really liked the museum’s exposition, and the interesting introductory story from the museum employee, who with great enthusiasm and kindness told us the main events of Tsvetaeva’s life. We were alone, so we were able to look at almost everything in some detail. Thank you to the museum staff for doing such an important job! (Original) Сегодня утром посетили литературный музей М.И.Цветаевой. В Гугле отмечен неправильно, находится на Казанской улице, дом 61. Стоимость посещения 250 руб/чел, школьникам бесплатно. Очень понравилась экспозиция музея, и интересный вводный рассказ сотрудницы музея, которая с большим воодушевлением и добротой поведала нам основные события жизни Цветаевой. Мы были одни, поэтому нам удалось довольно подробно рассмотреть практически всё. Спасибо сотрудникам музея, что занимаетесь таким важным делом!

(Translated by Google) The museum is small, but there are many original manuscripts and documents. The guides are very good. they talk interestingly about the life and work of M. Tsvetaeva.

(Translated by Google) A little sad museum, because the earthly life of the great poetess ended here. A modest house in which she lived for 10 days before her death. In front of the house there is a monument. Modest decoration of the home, a peasant’s house. I advise you to combine it with a visit to the supposed burial place of the poetess. Nearby there is a park dedicated to the poetess. I advise everyone who will be in the city to visit this museum (Original) Немного грустный музей,ведь здесь закончилась земная жизнь великой поэтессы.Скромный домик в котором она прожила 10 дней перед смертью.Перед домом находится памятник.Скромное убранство жилища,домик крестьянина.Советую совместить с посещением предполагаемого места захоронения поэтессы.Рядом есть сквер посвященный поэтессе.Советую всем которые будут в городе посетить данный музей

(Translated by Google) I really liked it. A small house, and there is the whole story of Tsvetaeva! This museum is worth a visit. (Original) Очень понравилась. Маленький домик, а там вся история Цветаевой! Стоит посетить этот музей.

(Translated by Google) A must visit for all fans of Tsvetaeva’s work. Others may be disappointed. A place of sorrow, the atmosphere is sad, I do not recommend it for sensitive people.

(Translated by Google) An interesting museum, near the Embankment, Shishkinsky Ponds, Spassky Cathedral. Well-kept territory. On the day of our visit, a musician played an interesting instrument in the yard - a bila (or flat bells). The house is compact, 2-story. Furniture, utensils, musical instruments. A large collection of authentic works of the owner of the house and his contemporaries. A very interesting excursion. (Original) Интересный музей, рядом Набережная, Шишкинские пруды, Спасский собор.

(Translated by Google) Memorial House-Museum of I.I. Shishkina is a historical and cultural monument of federal significance. The house was built by the father of the famous artist Ivan Vasilyevich Shishkin in 1835; the future landscape painter Ivan Ivanovich Shishkin (1832–1898) spent his childhood and youth there. Here he began to draw, showing extraordinary abilities from childhood; he came here in his mature years, drawing inspiration from the Kama forests and open spaces. For more than a hundred years, the house belonged to the family, and since 1940 a museum began functioning in it. Since 2004, the House-Museum of I.I. Shishkin is a structural subdivision of the Yelabuga State Museum-Reserve. The Elabuga Museum of the Artist is of global importance; it is the only house-museum of I.I. Shishkin and exhibits only authentic objects of decorative and applied art, graphics and painting of the 19th century. The exhibition occupies two floors of the Shishkin mansion. The museum has 16 exhibition halls. The first floor has been restored as it was during the life of the family, there are large and small living rooms, the father’s office, a travel room, a pantry and a dining room; on the second floor there is a room for the artist’s sisters, as well as Ivan Ivanovich’s bedroom and studio. In the halls of graphics and painting, authentic etchings and paintings by Shishkin are exhibited, including his earliest work “Harvest” (1850s). The exhibition presents not only the belongings of members of the large Shishkin family, but also personal items of the artist himself. Good quality oak furniture; many musical instruments; famous porcelain by Gardner and Kuznetsov; variety of floor, wall and mantel clocks; elegant porcelain figurines; bronze chandeliers and candelabra - all of them represent an example of middle-income merchant life. Having visited Shishkin’s house, you are immersed in this atmosphere of the last century. touching with history. (Original) Мемориальный дом-музей И.И. Шишкина — памятник истории и культуры федерального значения. Дом был построен отцом знаменитого художника Иваном Васильевичем Шишкиным в 1835 году, в нём прошли детские и юношеские годы будущего пейзажиста Ивана Ивановича Шишкина (1832–1898). Здесь он начал рисовать, с детства проявляя незаурядные способности, сюда приезжал в зрелые годы, черпая вдохновение в прикамских лесах и просторах. На протяжении более чем ста лет дом принадлежал семье, а с 1940 года в нём стал функционировать музей. С 2004 года Дом-музей И.И. Шишкина является структурным подразделением Елабужского государственного музея-заповедника. Елабужский музей художника имеет мировое значение, он является единственным в мире домом-музеем И.И. Шишкина и экспонирует только подлинные предметы декоративно-прикладного искусства, графики и живописи XIX века. Экспозиция занимает два этажа особняка Шишкиных. В музее 16 экспозиционных залов. Первый этаж восстановлен таким, каким был при жизни семьи, здесь находятся большая и малая гостиные, кабинет отца, дорожная комната, буфетная и столовая; на втором этаже комната сестёр художника, а также спальня и мастерская Ивана Ивановича. В залах графики и живописи экспонируются подлинные офорты и картины Шишкина, среди которых самая ранняя его работа «Жатва» (1850-е гг.). В экспозиции представлены не только вещи членов многочисленной семьи Шишкиных, но и личные предметы самого художника. Добротная дубовая мебель; множество музыкальных инструментов; знаменитый фарфор Гарднера и Кузнецова; многообразие напольных, настенных и каминных часов; изящные фарфоровые статуэтки; бронзовые люстры и канделябры — все они представляют образец купеческого быта среднего достатка. Побывав в доме Шишкина погружаешься в эту атмосферу прошлого столетия. Соприкасаешься с историей.

(Translated by Google) I recommend watching it! The ticket costs 400 rubles, a postcard as a souvenir is 20 rubles. The house is interesting with a collection of his pencil drawings and some paintings. His wife's paintings are also presented (Original) Рекомендую к просмотру! Билет стоит 400 р, открыточка на память 20 р. Дом интересный с коллекцией его рисунков карандашом и немного картин. Также представлены картины его жены

(Translated by Google) A good museum. The collection is small but capacious. The ticket costs 400 rubles. (Original) Хороший музей. Фонд небольшой, но ёмкий. Билет 400р стоит.

Great water park. Stayed in the room. Payment for the room includes a visit to the water park, which is very convenient - there is no queue and a visit to the Ferris wheel. I did not like the attitude of the guard on the street. Arrived by car. He asked the guards where to park, the guards replied that now some big people are now in the hotel so they won’t be able to park. After they arrived at the reception they asked what was the problem with parking. They answered that there were no problems and found a place. Listening to lies was not pleasant at a hotel of this level.

Very nice water park with a beautiful view of Kazan. The food is okay but the beer is fairly priced and nice & cold.

I expected more from this place - to be honest. It is mostly very crowded because not only people from Hotel Riviera come there (for Hotel guests its free entrance) but also people from outside come. A lot of families with small kids - for the kids it surely is a kind of water-wonderland. You have to wait quite some time to get your turn on the different slides they have - although they are a nice fun. They also offer massage, Finnish sauna, Russian banya and Hamam (but all of them not hot enough for my taste). Real good thing is that you ha e a basin that has a connection to the outside - which is especially nice in winter times. You can get food and drinks at some different places too - but don't expect real high quality kitchen. Best time to go there is after 20.30PM - the place is open until 23.00PM - in the evening there are less people and kids.

Hotel is located riverside, you can see Kazan Kremlin from your hotel. One of the largest Gym with all equipment and trainers to guide you. Staff is humble and professional. They might have to give English training to all the staff members.

The hotel guest has a free pass to water park with a number of pipes, basins and sauna. You always know how to spend your evening. Open until 23:00.

I'll always remember this place . Every thing is well organised. Many games . There are restaurants. Bar. Hookah. Sauna . I think you'll find there every thing you ever wanted . Just remember to take a waterproof camera with you . I recommend this park for every one.

This park is very fun and well kept. However, I was expecting more of a thrill from the water slides, but overall they were ok.

Don’t miss to visit the Petropavlovsky Sabor (St Peter and Paul Cathedral). Just recently completed a complete renovation and shines in new splendor. From the main entrance you have the most beautiful sunset over the roofs of Kazan.

The cathedral is under maintenance. The outer walls of the cathedral are beautiful. There is one room museum on the ground floor. The ticket price is 100 Rubles.

Ah oh, it's repairing now

Beautiful Cathedral in Kazan.

Real Russian place

So beautiful

(Translated by Google) The Peter and Paul Cathedral is the oldest architectural monument. It was built in 1723-1726. The temple is fabulously beautiful, bright, painted. It catches the eye from afar, and from close up - you can't take your eyes off it. It has an interesting history. If you are in Kazan for the first time, I highly recommend visiting. The temple is truly an adornment of the city. (Original) Петропавловский собор - древнейший памятник архитектуры. Был построен в 1723-1726 гг. Храм сказочной красоты, яркий , расписной. Издалека приковывает взгляд, а вблизи- глаз не оторвать. Имеет интересную историю. Если вы впервые в Казани, очень советую посетить. Храм действительно является украшением города.

In the evening worth visiting, the way it is being lightened looks great with that big tree in the middle

An impressive example of modern urban architecture is truly world-class. Located near the historic center of the capital of Tatarstan. A semicircular enfilade of columns hovering over the square surrounding the complex of buildings. And its center, which is crowned with a fantastic tree stretching into a reflection of the blue sky ... Bravo!

Amazing! Awesome! Cool!

Great monument, with very unique style. Definitly worth visiting :)

Good to see at night and morning too

Fantastic architecture

It's nice and brandnew. Build in the form of French Baroque.

Best street in Kazan Ends at the beautiful kremlin complex

Super.

(Translated by Google) The apartment we rented was a minute's walk from the Arbat and the Kremlin. On the first day we dropped our bags and went to look. There weren't a lot of people, which was nice. No one intruded, and we avoided horses and donkeys for photos. The lively scene only captivates you and you have time to turn your head in different directions. There are many establishments from inexpensive to quite expensive. There is something and someone to take a photo with. They gave brochures, but not intrusively. There is a lot to take a walk and see. On the last day we took the metro to the Ring shopping center - Tukay Square, and walked back and rested, leaving tomorrow. On the first day, we also saw people relaxing on benches🤦 it was already at ten o’clock in the evening, the police were not seen. Everything was civilized, quiet and calm with my daughter. Anyone who loves an active life has seen a couple of hostels right on Bauman. (Original) Снятая нами квартира находилось в минуте ходьбы от Арбата и от Кремля. В первый же день побросали сумки и пошли смотреть. Людей не толпа, что порадовало. Никто не навязывался, а лошадей и ослов для фото мы обходили. Оживленная захватывает только и успеваешь крутить головой в разные стороны. Много заведений от не дорогих до достаточно дорогих. Есть с чем и с кем сфоткаться . Дали брошуры, но не навязчиво. Погулять и посмотреть есть на что. В последний день доехали на метро до ТЦ Кольцо это площадь Тукая, а назад шли и отдыхали завтра уезжаем. В первый день видели и людей отдыхающих на лавочках🤦 это уже в часов десят вечера, полицию не видели. Были с дочерью все цивильно, тихо и спокойно. Кто любит активную жизнь видела пару хостелов прям на Баумана.

(Translated by Google) The central pedestrian street of the city. It starts from Tukay Square and ends directly at the Kremlin, leading to Millennium Square. A pretty street paved with paving stones; with fountains, lanterns and benches, quaint new monuments. Here you will find many bars, restaurants and souvenir shops. After the Kremlin, this is probably the next item on the list for everyone who comes to Kazan. (Original) Центральная пешеходная улица города. Начинается от площади Тукая и заканчивается непосредственно у Кремля, выходя к площади Тысячелетия. Симпатичная улочка, вымощенная брусчаткой; с фонтанами, фонарями и скамейками причудливыми новыми памятниками. Здесь вы найдёте множество баров, ресторанов и магазинов с сувениркой. После Кремля это, наверное, следующий пункт в списке для каждого, кто приезжает в Казань.

(Translated by Google) Bauman Street - Kazan Kremlin! A lively place, you can spend half a day there looking at the architecture and monuments. There are many excellent restaurants and cafes with national cuisine! Very beautiful ! The street on one side leads to the observation deck and the Kremlin, which is incredibly beautiful and contrasting! On the other hand, the Cathedral of the Epiphany - it has a steep lookout over the entire Arbat, at the top it will take your breath away! (Located next to the monument to Chaliapin) -Don’t buy souvenirs there for no reason, in stores like (Bechtele or in the markets of Kazan for example - half the price)!!! -Well, the second minus is that the whole Arbat is mostly souvenir! A couple of theaters, a couple of shops and cafes, but in general (if you don’t talk about architectural monuments along the way) everything is souvenir shops, at first it’s interesting, but after half the street the sameness begins to irritate (Original) Улица Баумана - Казанский Кремль! Живое местечко, можно провести там пол дня рассматривая архитектуру да памятники., много отличных ресторанов и кафе с национальной кухней! Очень красиво ! Улица с одной стороны выходит к смотровой площадке и кремлю ., что невероятно красиво и контрастно! С другой стороны собор Богоявления Господня - у него крутая смотровая на весь Арбат., на верху дух захватывает ! (Находится рядом с памятником Шаляпину) -Сувениры там не берите не за что , в магазинах типа (Бехтеле или на рынках той же Казани - в два раза дешевле)!!! -Ну и второй минус, весь Арбат, по большей части - сувенирная! Пару театров, пару магазинов и кафе, но в общей массе (если не говорить об памятниках архитектуры по пути) все - это сувенирные лавки, сперва это интересно, но уже через пол улицы начинает раздражать однотипность

(Translated by Google) Walk alone, with friends, with family. Lots of cafes, restaurants, entertainment venues. Old Kazan, cultural heritage sites. Souvenir shops and sweets. Craft beer, national cuisine, moonshine museum... entertainment for every taste)) (Original) Прогуляться одному, с друзьями, с семьёй. Множество кафе, ресторанов, развлекательных заведений. Старая Казань, объекты культурного наследия. Сувенирные лавки и сладости. Крафтовое пиво, национальная кухня, музей самогона... развлечения на любой вкус))

(Translated by Google) Beautiful pedestrian street full of shops, restaurants and museums. Certainly the most popular in all of Kazan, it is connected to the Kremlin (Original) Bella via pedonale piena di negozi, ristoranti e musei. Sicuramente la più gettonata di tutta Kazan, é collegata col Cremlino

The tower, once part of the city's kremlin and known for its lean, was straightened in the 1930s and 1990s. Its construction date is uncertain, with some suggesting the 18th century, while legend claims it was built in a week by Ivan the Terrible's artisans. Scholars debate its purpose, with some questioning the need for a military watchtower in a peaceful region. The tower's architecture, influenced by Tatar design, suggests it may be older than the 18th century. Over time, its top symbol changed from a double-headed eagle to a red star and now a Muslim crescent.

The tower, once part of the city's kremlin and known for its lean, was straightened in the 1930s and 1990s

There is a tale abot this tower. It says that Tzar Ivan the terrible built it as a request from princess Suyumbike when he proposed her. The tower is supposed to be higher of the highest mosque.

A leaning tower with a fascinating legend associated with it. It offers panoramic views of the city from its top.

It is a symbol of the old city of Kazan, a historical place and a museum.

Nice tower. The interesting thing is that it actually leans like the Leaning Tower of Pisa!

An interesting place to visit even during the night time.

Kul Sharif Mosque is located in Kazan, Tatarstan, Russia. It's one of the largest mosques in Russia and a symbol of Tatar culture and Islamic heritage. The mosque features stunning Islamic architecture, with its characteristic blue domes and tall minarets. Completed in 2005, Kul Sharif is situated within the Kazan Kremlin, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The interior is beautifully decorated with intricate patterns, calligraphy, and vibrant colors, reflecting the rich artistic traditions of Tatarstan. The mosque can accommodate up to 7,000 worshippers and serves as a cultural center, offering educational programs and hosting events. It is a popular destination for both tourists and locals, showcasing the harmonious coexistence of different cultures in the region..

Kul Sharif Mosque, located within the walls of the Kazan Kremlin in Russia, is not just a symbol of Tatar culture and Islamic heritage, but a majestic architectural wonder that tells a story of resilience, faith, and revival. Originally constructed in the 16th century, the mosque was tragically destroyed during the siege of Kazan by Ivan the Terrible in 1552. After centuries, it was beautifully reconstructed and reopened in 2005 as a tribute to its historical significance and the spiritual heart of Tatarstan. The modern mosque blends traditional Islamic motifs with modern design, making it a breathtaking fusion of old and new. With its sky-blue domes, towering minarets, and intricate calligraphy, Kul Sharif Mosque stands as one of the largest mosques in Russia and Europe. The interior is equally stunning, with a massive chandelier, marble columns, and stained-glass windows that filter soft light across the prayer hall. Visitors are welcomed to explore its museum, prayer areas, and observation balcony that offers panoramic views of the Kremlin and the Volga River. Whether you're interested in history, architecture, or spiritual serenity, Kul Sharif Mosque is a must-visit destination that leaves a lasting impression on the soul.

The Kul Sharif Mosque, established in 2005 at the heart of Kazan within the Kazan Kremlin, serves as a poignant symbol of Tatarstan's cultural resilience. Built on the site where a mosque stood in the 16th century, demolished during an attack on the city, the Kul Sharif Mosque pays homage to its historical significance. Financed through donations from over 40 thousand individuals and organizations, the mosque's architectural grandeur includes ornate decorations, Quranic verses etched in marble, and intricate details like Czech glass light fixtures. With a unique design featuring intersecting squares, a symbolic dome, and towering minarets, the mosque stands as a testament to Tatarstan's rich heritage. Inside the complex, the Museum of Islamic Culture of the Volga Region offers a captivating exploration of Islamic history. Additionally, the mosque complex features the Museum of Ancient Manuscripts and a library. Visitors can admire depictions of tulips, ancient Bulgarian symbols, and carpets donated by Iran within the mosque's interior. The mosque, accommodating up to 1,500 worshippers, stands not only as a place of prayer but also as a cultural hub. Free entry to the mosque includes access to its rich history, while tickets are required for the museums. Operating daily from 9 am to 6 pm, the mosque observes a special dress code, providing capes for those in need. Friday prayers from noon to 2 o'clock contribute to the mosque's significance as a religious and cultural landmark. The emphasis on preserving Tatarstan's history and Islamic culture is underscored by the enduring presence of the mosque and its enriching museums.

Definitely a must if you visit the city. Elegant and beautiful architecture with the unique blue color. The place is a bit crowded and touristy. The lighting at night is very nice also. Worth the visit.

Amazing mosque stands on top of the hill overlooking kazan. The mosque can be seen from the majority of the city. Blue and white contrasts looks great in day and night time. Truly great to see anytime. With the right clothing you can go in and check out the inside

For each masjid is a place to calm your heart and soul in a world of problems and concerns. It can accommodate 6,000 worshipers. Its inauguration on July 24, 2005, marked the beginning of celebrations dedicated to the Millennium of Kazan.

Though I'm not a Muslim, I must admit that this is a real work of art! A must see when in Kazan! Actually, it's impossible to miss it if you visit the Kremlin.

Beautiful monastery.

(Translated by Google) We are coming for the second year. The impressions are nothing but enthusiastic. Purity. I want to slowly walk, watch and listen. We went up to the bell tower. We paid only 100 rubles. It must be said that the climb is not for everyone: there are very steep stairs. The climb is still okay, but the descent... The view from the top is stunning: you can see the entire surrounding area. We also visited the monastery museum. (Original) Приезжаем второй год. Впечатления только восторженные. Чистота. Хочется неспешно ходить, смотреть и слушать. Поднимались на колокольню. Заплатили всего 100 рублей. Подъем надо сказать не для всех: есть очень крутые лестницы. Подняться еще ничего, а вот спуск… Вид сверху потрясающий: видна вся окрестность. Так же заходили в монастырский музей.

(Translated by Google) The monastery was impressive. And its history from the 16th century and architecture. The churches are all operational, there is a church shop. It was interesting to look at the vaults of the walls, ceilings, masonry, and frescoes. In the Church of St. Nicholas the Wonderworker we were allowed (admission paid) to climb the bell tower. It's not an easy climb, but from above you can see most of the island. Amazing temple. There is no doubt that the preserved and restored monastery will have a beneficial effect on the general history of Rus'. (Original) Монастырь впечатлил. И его история с 16 века и архитектура. Храмы все действующие, работает церковная лавка. Интересно было рассматривать своды стен, потолков, кладку, фрески. В церкви святого Николая Чудотворца нам позволили (вход платный) поднятся на колокольню. Непростой подъем, но с высоты видно большую часть острова. Удивительный храм. Безусловно, что сохранённый и отреставрированный монастырь благотворно отразится на общей истории Руси.

A beautiful place, not just for Muslims I'm an atheist but I appreciate wonderful artwork and buildings, this is a beautiful building with amazing items on display, Ps :if you need the public toilet they are old fashioned Muslim type very uncomfortable with back /leg or arthritis problems

A colourful and well planned place. You can spend an entire day here. Everything looks picture perfect.

Best place for visiting in Yoshkar-Ola. The colour of contrast is so good. A city of Mari El that's why this Republic is of Red City. Beautiful

It's pretty new, and not really interesting.

Good

Wonderful place

Yoshkin Cat is a popular cultural symbol in Russia, particularly associated with the town of Yoshkar-Ola. The figure of the Yoshkin Cat is often depicted as a whimsical cat character, sometimes portrayed in various humorous or playful ways. This character has become an emblem of regional pride and is featured in souvenirs, art, and local celebrations..

Great place. Made a lot of pictures with my son there. I always visit this place with all my friends who come to Yoshkar-Ola.

Make a wish, and Yoshkin kot will make it true!

Great place to take pictures

Super!

Nice

Empty and quiet museum, local history of old times and Soviet years

Great!

(Translated by Google) An excellent museum, a place where you can see the whole of Chuvashia with its rich history. You can take pictures in interesting costumes👍. (Original) Отличный музей ,место, где можно увидеть всю Чувашию с ее богатой историей.Можно сфотографироваться в интересных костюмах👍.

(Translated by Google) I really liked the museum, I recommend it to everyone for an initial acquaintance with the history of the Chuvash people. I didn’t take the excursion, and I really regretted it, because... There are not enough plaques with historical information. Individual excursion - 1000 rubles, I sincerely advise you to group with other tourists and still book it. I heard snippets of stories from two guides - they told the history of the republic very interestingly and with passion. The exhibition about the embroidered map of Russia is also interesting. It was interesting to look at the embroidery samples and try to guess what region it was. I also recommend a museum for children interested in archeology and extinct animals - there is a hall with the remains of mammoths, ancient animals and even people. (Original) Музей очень понравился, советую всем для первичного знакомства с историей чувашского народа. Я не брала экскурсию, и очень пожалела об этом, т.к. табличек с историческими справками маловато. Индивидуальная экскурсия - 1000 рублей, искренне советую сгруппироваться с другими туристами и всё-таки ее заказать. Слышала обрывки рассказов двух экскурсоводов - очень интересно и со страстью повествовали историю республики. Выставка о вышитой карте России также любопытна. Интересно было разглядывать образцы вышивки и пытаться угадать, что это за регион. Также советую музей для детей, увлекающихся археологией и вымершими животными - есть зал с останками мамонтов, древних животных и даже людей.

(Translated by Google) As is usually the case in regional cities, everything that can be collected is collected and placed in one place. In places, unexpected exhibits. Unfortunately, there is no QR code system where you could get information about the exhibits. Where did these 25 thousand rubles come from and right there is a lottery ticket with a win of 200 billion. I just checked in that I was there. You can't figure it out without a guide. There is a lack of a souvenir shop. I would like to buy a souvenir for a reasonable price. (Original) Как обычно бывает в областных городах, собрано всё что можно собрать и помещено в одно место. Местами неожиданные экспозиции. К сожалению нет системы куар кодов, где можно было бы получить информацию об экспонатах. Откуда эти 25 тысяч рублей и тут же билет лотереи с выигрышем на 200 миллиардов. Просто отметился что был. Без экскурсовода не разобраться. Не хватает магазинчика с сувенирами. Хотелось бы купить на память сувенир за разумные деньги.

(Translated by Google) Wonderful museum. Located in the historical part of the city. Interesting and varied exhibits. It's better to book a tour. For young children, the section on the nature of Chuvashia will be interesting. There is no interactivity in the modern sense of the word: no buttons, touch screens, or other things that you can touch. But this in no way detracts from the educational opportunities of this museum. Among the exhibits there are many interesting things and documents that will be of interest to both adults and children. (Original) Замечательный музей. Расположен в исторический части города. Интересные и разнообразные экспонаты. Лучше заказать экскурсию. Для маленьких детей будет интересен раздел природы Чувашии. Интерактива в современном понимании слова нет: никаких кнопочек, сенсорных экранов и пр. штук, которые можно потрогать. Но это ничуть не умаляет образовательных возможностей этого музея. Среди экспонатов много любопытных вещей и документов, которые будут интересны и взрослым и детям.

(Translated by Google) Very interesting and informative. The museum has three halls. The first hall is dedicated to the Stone, Bronze and Iron Ages. In addition to archaeological exhibits, you can see many maps and diagrams of burial mounds and burials, approximate dating and belonging to a certain material culture. The second hall is from the Middle Ages of Volga Bulgaria. Many exhibits related to the history, costume and life of the Chuvash people. Further - about the coexistence of peoples in the era of Tsarist Russia. The third hall is Soviet history and the nature of Chuvashia. The cost of an adult ticket is only 190 rubles. I highly recommend this museum. The only thing that, in my opinion, is a little missing is the historical period of the arrival of the ancestors of the Chuvash to these lands. That is, the first hall is the "bronze" of proto-European cultures and the "iron" of the Volga-Finnic cultures. And then - immediately the second hall and Volga Bulgaria without any special explanations - where from, when and how long did the "new" migrations to these territories take place) (Original) Весьма интересно и познавательно. В музее три зала. Первый зал посвящен каменному, бронзовому и железному веку. Кроме археологических экспонатов можно увидеть много карт и схем курганов и захоронений, примерную датировку и принадлежность к определенной материальной культуре. Второй зал - от средних веков Волжской Булгарии. Много экспонатов, относящихся к истории, костюму и быту чувашского народа. Далее - о совместном сосуществовании народов в эпоху царской России. Третий зал - советская история и природа Чувашии. Стоимость взрослого билета - всего 190 рублей. Очень рекомендую этот музей. Единственное, что, на мой взгляд, немного упущено - это исторический период прихода предков чувашей на эти земли. То есть первый зал - "бронза" протоевропейских культур и "железо" волжско-финнских культур. А потом - сразу второй зал и Волжская Булгария без особых пояснений - откуда, когда и как долго происходили "новые" миграции на данные территории)

(Translated by Google) An excellent monument, but very small, we need to erect a larger monument to such a great man, king, commander! Only under him did Russia begin to expand and develop. There are not enough monuments to Ivan the Terrible in the city of Kazan😊😊😊! (Original) Отличный памятник, но очень маленький, нужно поставить памятник побольше такому великому человеку, царю, полководцу! Только при нем Россия стала расширяться и развиваться. Нехватает памятников Ивану Грозному еще в городе Казань😊😊😊!

(Translated by Google) Monuments are a good thing, but not of this historical figure, and certainly not on Chuvash soil, which suffered during his campaign against Kazan. It would be better if they erected a monument to Khan Kubrat (Original) Памятники - вещь хорошая, но не данной исторической личности и уж точно не на чувашской земле, которая пострадала в ходе его похода на Казань. Поставили бы лучше хану Кубрату памятник

(Translated by Google) A tiny monument (30 centimeters) to Ivan 4, for some reason placed in a glass box. There is an information board, but I didn’t read it and still don’t know why this monument stands in Cheboksary (Original) Крошечный памятник (30 сантиметров) Ивану 4, почемуто помещенный в стеклянный ящик. Есть информационный щит, но я не читал его и так и не знаю почему этот памятник стоит в Чебоксарах

(Translated by Google) Cheboksary is the last place where it would be appropriate to erect this monument. I propose to the authors of the initiative to erect a monument to Hitler in Moscow. (Original) Чебоксары -- последнее место, куда было бы уместно ставить этот памятник. Предлагаю авторам инициативы поставить памятник Гитлеру в Москве.

(Translated by Google) Cheboksary is one of the last places where this monument should have been erected (Original) Чебоксары - одно из последних мест куда стоило поставить этот памятник

(Translated by Google) Great monument, just small (Original) Отличный памятник, только маленький

(Translated by Google) It is blatant impudence to erect this monument. (Original) Вопиющая наглость ставить этот памятник .

Good)))

(Translated by Google) A great place, a very educational excursion, a very pleasant guide Irina. Adult ticket - 350, schoolchildren - 170, preschoolers free. There are working dry closets on site. (Original) Шикарное место, очень познавательная экскурсия, очень приятный гид Ирина. Взрослый билет-350, школьники-170, дошкольники бесплатно. На территории работающие биотуалеты.

(Translated by Google) It is wonderful that such masterpieces associated with our history are gradually being restored. Of course, the region has much less funds than Moscow, but about a third of the castle has already been restored. Heating and lighting have been installed in all rooms, this has already stopped the process of destruction from moisture, which was further accelerated in the 80s, when Mosfilm, for the filming of the series, “thought of” flooding the castle basements with water. Interesting excursions are held starting from 11 o'clock in the afternoon. And yes, like any self-respecting castle, there is a ghost here! :) We got there from the M12, so we sailed on 2 ferries, first through the Sura, then through the Volga, this adds an additional flavor to the trip. (Original) Замечательно, что постепенно восстанавливают такие шедевры, связаные с нашей историей. Конечно, средств у региона намного меньше чем у Москвы, но примерно треть замка уже восстановили. Проведено отопление и освещение по всем комнатам, это уже остановило процесс разрушения от влаги, который был дополнительно ускорен в 80-х, когда Мосфильм для сьемок сериала "додумался" залить подвалы замка водой. Интереснийшие экскурсии проводятся, начиная с 11ти часов дня. И да, как всякий уважающий себя замок, здесь есть приведение! :) Добирались со стороны М12, поэтому плыли на 2х паромах, сначала через Суру, потом через Волгу, это добавляет дополнительный колорит поездке.

(Translated by Google) I recommend visiting this place. A real ancient castle under restoration. A very warm welcome. A competent guide with good humor told the history of the castle in an interesting and informative way. It was time to take a walk on our own. It's worth a trip for 2-3 days. (Original) Рекомендую посетить это место. Настоящий старинный замок в стадии восстановления. Очень радушный приём. Грамотный и с хорошим юмором экскурсовод интересно и познавательно рассказал историю замка. Было время прогуляться самостоятельно. Дня на 2-3 стоит съездить.

(Translated by Google) Unfortunately, I don’t remember much. I did. , 4 years old. at the beginning of 1970, I was with my parents. Dad worked there for a short time, doing housework. And I only remember well the marble columns inside the castle. Round, black marble. And there was some kind of spirit. Majestic (Original) К сожалению я мало что помню.Мне было. ,годика 4.в начале 1970 я был с родителями.Папа недолго там работал, по хозяйству.А я только хорошо помню внутри замка мраморные колонны.круглые из черного мрамора .И какой то дух был.Величественный

(Translated by Google) We had a fun time! Near the Volga River. Holidays with children are safe, the depth is shallow. In the morning there are guided tours of the castle. (Original) Время провели весело! Рядом река Волга. Отдых с детьми безопасный, глубина мелкая. В первой половине дня в замке проходят экскурсии.

(Translated by Google) Good afternoon We rented room 26 with a balcony, paid 4,000 rubles for a room for 1 night, which was quite a bit, considering the poor condition of the balcony, which we were warned about at the reception. I liked the room, high ceilings, many windows, a gorgeous view from the balcony, clean and not even the slightest smell of mold, although it is present in some parts of the castle. I also liked that despite the fact that the next day only the two of us signed up for the excursion (on 10/25/23 the cost was 350 rubles per person), it was carried out for us personally, since we were hotel guests. Special thanks to Lidia Alekseevna for conducting an exciting excursion for us. They allowed us to check out an hour later, since the excursion was scheduled for 13.00 and check-out was at 12.00. Of the minuses: long road to Yurino (3 hours. From the wishes: more friendly staff at the reception and security. (Original) Добрый день! Снимали номер 26 с балконом, номер на 1 ночь заплатили 4000 р, договастенько, учитывая аварийное состояние балкона, о чём нас предупредили на ресепшене. Номер понравился, высокие потолки, много окон, шикарный вид с балкона, чистенько и даже не малейшего запаха плесени, хотя в некоторых частях замка он присутствует. Также понравилось, что несмотря, что на следующий день на экскурсию записались только мы вдвоём (на 25.10.23 стоимость 350 р чел), нам её персонально провели, так как мы были постояльцами гостиницы.Отдельное спасибо Лидии Алексеевне за проведённую для нас увлекательную экскурсию.. Позволили выселиться на час позже, так как экскурсия была назначена на 13.00,а выселение на 12.00. Из минусов: долгая дорога до Юрино (3 часа. Из пожеланий : более приветливый персонал на ресепе и охраны.

Very small expensive . Not a place for adults something like mini aqua park ... For kids

The Cipollino restaurant is pretty good for pizza

Fun

(Translated by Google) Atoll is a water park for children and adults. We visit this water park partly because... close to home, inexpensive and quite a lot of slides for children 8-13 years old. The water park itself is small, which allows you to completely let the kids go and let them ride and swim on their own. The instructors keep order all the time, the whistle does not stop for a minute. The water park has a spa area: Russian bath, sauna, hammam; pools with cold, cool and comfortable water. There is a small cafe. On the one hand, everything is very compactly located. And it's convenient. On the other hand, there is only one jacuzzi, there is little space in the wave pool, although the shopping center itself has plenty of space, but it is filled with shops. (Original) Атолл - аквапарк для детей и взрослых. Часть посещаем данный аквапарк, т.к. недалеко от дома, недорого и достаточно много горок для детей 8-13 лет. Сам аквапарк небольшой, что позволяет полностью отпустить детей и позволить им самостоятельно кататься и купаться. Инструкторы все время следят за порядком, свисток неумолкает ни на минуту. В аквапарке есть спа-зона: русская баня, сауна, хамам; бассейны с холодной, прохладной и комфортной водой. Есть небольшое кафе. С одной стороны, все очень компактно расположено. И это удобно. С другой, джакузи только одна, в волновом бассейне мало места, хотя в самом ТЦ полно площади, но она заполнена магазинами.

(Translated by Google) We liked the Atoll water park. Atoll is not the largest water park, but it is very cozy and comfortable. We had at our disposal an area of ​​slides and pools, showers, locker rooms, a spa area, steam rooms and 3 pools of different temperatures, and a cafe. We took a 3-hour pass on a weekend for two (an adult and a child), and paid 1,800 rubles. Plus we ate in a cafe for 255 rubles. We had a great time, the child is happy. We'll come again. We highly recommend visiting. (Original) Аквапарк Атолл нам понравился. Атолл не самый большой аквапарк, но очень уютный и комфортный. В нашем распоряжении были зона горок и бассейнов, душевые, раздевалки, зона spa, парные и 3 бассейна разных температур, кафе. Мы брали абонемент на 3 часа в выходной день на двоих (взрослый и ребёнок), отдали 1800 руб. Плюс поели в кафе на 255 руб. Прекрасно провели время, ребенок счастлив. Приедем ещё. Очень рекомендуем к посещению.

(Translated by Google) Today we were with children, we really liked it. The water park is not big, but the kids and I had fun. We had so much fun, even the children didn’t want to leave the water park. The staff at the water park are very polite. My family and I decided to come and relax more often. (Original) Сегодня были с детьми, нам очень понравился. Аквапарк не большой но нам с детьми было весело. Нам столько было весело, даже дети не хотели выйти из аквапарка . В аквапарке персоналы очень вежливые. Мы решили с семьёй почаще приехать и отдохнуть.

(Translated by Google) Fine. The 2-year-old child liked it, although for kids there are essentially only 2 small pools and not everything worked. I don’t find a shared locker room convenient; as a result, no one washes in front of the pools. There are few instructors, no one really pays attention. The pools and locker rooms are clean. The prices at the bar are reasonable, the taste is also normal (a small burger is 120 rubles, fries are 80 rubles). Taking into account the cost of about 1300, you can go once or twice a year. (Original) Нормально. Ребенку 2 г. понравилось,хотя для малышей по сути только 2 маленьких бассейна и то, не все работало. Совместная раздевалка по мне не удобно, по итогу никто не моется перед бассейнами. Инструкторов мало, никто особо не следит. Чисто и в бассейнах и в раздевалках. В баре цены адекватные, вкус тоже нормальный (бургер небольшой 120 руб., картофель фри 80р.)С учётом стоимость около 1300 раз-два в год можно съездить.

River, Steps, sailing, boat trip, Museum historic must visit during your stay at Nizhny Novgorod

Quite impressive and spectacular. There is a picturesque view from the top of the stairs.

Be active and climb the stairs. Enjoy the view over the great Volga

Very nice view on a Volga and Oka rivers. You can see 20 km ahead because the monument is placed on a very high hill.
