On April 25, the 11 millionth guest visited the International RUSSIA EXPO. It was Olga Lutova from Orel, who came to the Exposition together with her husband Anatoly and two daughters — eight-year-old Valeria and 15-year-old Sophia.

"We came to the Exposition from the Orel region. We are very happy that we got here! Here we can see all the regions of our country, learn details about them, choose where we can go traveling," said Olga Lutova.

The guests received gifts from the RUSSIA EXPO Directorate and the Administration of the Tomsk region. Onstage, they were presented with a certificate for a four-day trip to "Emerald" Tomsk in a solemn atmosphere.

"Today there is a big event at the Exposition: a family from Orel became our 11 millionth visitors. Mother Olga, father Anatoly and two wonderful girls, Sonya and Lera, will receive a wonderful gift from the Tomsk region, for which a special thanks goes to the governor of this region, Vladimir Mazur. In addition, from today our guests can see major exposition updates. We welcome everyone to the RUSSIA EXPO!" emphasized Natalia Virtuozova, Director General of the RUSSIA EXPO.

During the trip the family will learn why Tomsk is called "Emerald", visit the most beautiful and iconic places of the city, taste local treats and take a photo with the famous 36-liter coal-fired samovar. The guests are also expected to visit the first rural park in the Urals, an excursion to the Animatronic gallery and a masterclass on creating a wooden Tin Man. Tomsk residents will surprise the family with a masterclass on molding emerald pelmeni dumplings, excursions to the Territory of Taiga eco-factory and to secret dungeons. The bright journey will end with an inspiring viewing of a theatrical production by the 2+KU Theater and a masterclass at the First Museum of Slavic Mythology.

"Today I heard from an Exposition tour guide that visiting Tomsk is like being in a fairy tale, — Governor Vladimir Mazur told the Lutov family. — Our city, the official student capital of Russia, breathes science, culture and Siberian antiquity. Tomsk has brought up many outstanding, talented people, one of whom is a graduate of the Tomsk Teachers' Institute, the author of the fairy tale 'The Wizard of the Emerald City' Alexander Volkov".

On April 6, the ten millionth visitor was solemnly welcomed at the venue, it was Konstantin Panfilov, who came with his wife from Yaroslavl. They received a certificate from the RUSSIA EXPO Directorate and Rosatom State Corporation for a trip to Murmansk to visit the world's first nuclear-powered vessel — the nuclear icebreaker Lenin and one of the universal nuclear icebreakers of Atomflot FSUE.

The Exposition crossed the threshold of five million guests on February 22. Alexei Maximov with his wife and two children came to VDNH for the second time.  The family from the city of Volzhsky, Volgograd region, received a trip along the Energy of Ladoga route from the RUSSIA EXPO Directorate, the Administration of the Leningrad region and the Igora Tour travel company. Thanks to the gift, the Maximovs saw the main symbols of the Volga region and got acquainted with the history of our country's small towns.
