Interesting, educative and delicious: what to see on the way to the Farmers Fair
The RUSSIA EXPO is a huge location, where something interesting can be found literally at every step. That's why a well-thought-out itinerary won't hurt.
Here's a hint how to see some of the best expositions in a couple of hours, and also to please yourself with delicious products.
If your trip to the exposition starts from the Main Entrance, be sure to look into one of the most technological pavilions made to look like a particle accelerator. Near the Main Arch of VDNH guests are greeted by the exposition "Achievements of Russia". An audiovisual show with an atmospheric immersion into a fast-paced journey through the country's major achievements awaits you.
Next, you should walk around Pavilion No. 1, one of the most important and monumental buildings of VDNH, where the exposition of the "Movement of the First" and the presidential platform "Russia - Land of Opportunity" is now presented. Then, after admiring the famous fountain "Friendship of the Peoples of the USSR", go to the bright, modern Pavilion G "VK Meeting Place". There you can play computer games, visit a virtual meeting with idols, create a clip and even get your own individual playlist, selected according to your heartbeat.
Afterwards, it's a short walk to Pavilion No. 34 of the "Cosmonautics and Aviation" Center. There, the free exposition "Russian Space: Creating the Future" is available for the guests of the RUSSIA EXPO; you will have to enter from the back side of the pavilion. Space exhibits, interactive simulators, virtual attractions, photo zone "Gagarin's Capsule" are waiting for you. You can watch the work of the ISS, attend masterclasses and even make friends with an alien.
And to end the route you should go to Pavilion No. 48, where the wine and food fair is located. Here you can taste exquisite drinks and delicious products from all over the country: cheeses, sausages, pastries, honey and chocolate. If you visit the fair before the end of this week, you will definitely try beef brisket, pork ribs, chicken wings and smoked African clarias catfish, as well as famous cheeses from Tatarstan and unique puffed halva.
We would like to remind you that the guests of the RUSSIA EXPO can also quickly and comfortably get to the fair by a free bus. The route is: from the North Entrance Arch (Pavilion No. 75) to Pavilion No. 48. Schedule: from 10:00 to 13:00, from 14:00 to 20:00. Traffic interval: every 15 minutes.
The session was conducted by Sofia Kovalevich, Programme Director and teacher at the Young Journalists School.
The meeting took place on 23 April at the National Centre RUSSIA: as part of the "What to Read?!" Literary Club.
