the exposition First in Russia - Land of Opportunity, which is located in
Pavilion No. 1. It is divided into eight thematic zones linked by the key
concept: "a dream is the beginning of any discovery" - of oneself,
inventions, society, country, and the future. Here the children were given
scarves and hats with the symbols of the Russian movement of children and youth

here is very beautiful and technological. I would like to express immense
gratitude to the organizers for such an excursion. I am very tired - but
tomorrow I will definitely have the strength to continue", - shared Vyacheslav
from Yasinovataya.
"Most
of all I liked the model of Moscow - they showed how our capital looks from
above, from a bird's-eye view. What surprised me the most about the Exposition
