The National Centre RUSSIA offers tours that provide deeper insight into the culture, traditions, and future of our country.

The "Make a Wish" tour invites guests to explore the rich traditions of various Russian regions and discover the unique cultural legacy of the country, the dreams of science fiction writers, and the achievements of inventors.

The tour begins at the main entrance, where visitors are greeted by eight beautifully decorated New Year trees adorned with symbols of the federal districts. Here, guests can admire the lace patterns and gingerbread of the North, Russian matryoshkas, golden embroidery of the Caucasus, Ural gemstones, and other vibrant ornaments. The guide will share stories about the crafts passed down through generations and the wealth of Russia's multicultural heritage.

The journey continues in the exposition halls of the Centre. Visitors will explore the Library of the Future, learn how science fiction writers envisioned tomorrow, visit the Hall of Inventions, and conclude their tour at the "Legacy for the Future" exposition, which showcases works by young artists from different countries.

The children's tour "The Future Begins Today" will captivate young guests with a journey through time and space. In the "Time of the First", Library of the Future, Hall of Inventions, and "Legacy for the Future" exposition, children will meet Alisa, a girl from the future, discover the dreams of science fiction writers, solve the mysteries of science and technology, and see the world of tomorrow through the eyes of artists from Russia, Brazil, Iran, India, China, and Ethiopia.
