The Department Store at the National Centre RUSSIA offers high-quality products from across the country, including items crafted by traditional artisans. Visitors can purchase clothing, accessories, jewelry, home goods, natural cosmetics, and sweets. Here's a list of the most popular items.

With the arrival of colder weather, people crave comfort and warmth. Perhaps that's why gingerbread has become one of the most sought-after purchases. Russian regions are famous for their gingerbread, offering a variety of choices: stamped, with sweet fillings and unusual add-ins, or featuring unique ingredients. Gingerbread is the perfect addition for cozy tea gatherings.

Lace products from Yelets and Kukarka are also popular among department store visitors. Yelets lace is one of the most delicate and airy, with silk threads adding an extra touch of lightness and elegance. Kukarka lace is known for its harmonious combination of different weaves, resulting in particularly intricate designs.

Kokoshniks are another top favorite, available in velvet, leather, or satin, and offered in richly decorated or minimalist styles. Kokoshniks featuring natural motifs are especially in demand. Additionally, visitors love stylish handbags from Kaliningrad and accessories from Tver.

The Department Store's assortment is constantly updated. The New Year market is set to launch soon, promising even more unique finds.

The National Centre RUSSIA was established by order of the President of the Russian Federation, Vladimir Putin, to preserve the legacy of the International RUSSIA EXPO and to showcase the achievements of the country and its citizens on a permanent basis. Federal government agencies, state companies, corporations, and regions take part in the Centre’s work. 

The first event at the National Centre RUSSIA was the International Symposium "Inventing the Future," which welcomed more than 6,000 guests from 101 countries.
