how we travel and why we travel - this is what our ministry is in charge of.
First of all, it is about impressions: when we arrive on vacation, it should be
comfortable, interesting, safe, and delicious. This is a big job, which
involves a lot of people", - said Maxim Reshetnikov.

There are a lot of cool regional stands at the Exposition, very good expositions of industry colleagues. And one of the expositions is our pavilion, where we talk about tourism under the wonderful slogan "Feel Russia".
