First-year students from Moscow schools visited the large-scale exposition "Journey Across Russia" at the National Centre RUSSIA as part of tour groups. The children were introduced to the natural riches of our country and the achievements of federal districts. The schoolchildren particularly noted the interactive items that they could touch and activate.

A young visitor to the National Centre RUSSIA, Margarita Molofeyeva, shared her impressions of the concluding area of the exposition "Journey Across Russia." There, the first-year students entered their names on an interactive panel and signed electronic hearts, which became part of a large electronic heart dedicated to Russia.

"I liked it most where we signed the hearts and they appeared on the screen, it was really great," noted Margarita Molofeyeva.

In the location dedicated to the Sochi Olympic Games, the children cheered for the Russian team as an entire class, controlling an interactive object with the volume of their voices.

Exposition visitor Yekaterina Khomutova appreciated the opportunity to enter inside a KAMAZ, presented in the zone of the Volga Federal District. It is an exact model of a real vehicle with a 5D cinema inside, where one can feel the off-road ride.

"Wonder and joy! I really liked everything a lot!" shared Yekaterina Khomutova.

In the Volga Federal District zone, schoolchildren virtually painted a traditional Dymkovo toy, transforming an enlarged model of a horse into their unique art object.

"It was cool, we had to choose a pattern and color, and click on the horse," said Margarita.

In the locations dedicated to the North Caucasus, guests of the National Centre RUSSIA examined unique ancestral towers of the region and visited the liana forest of Russia, where they swung on swings among whimsical plants and even experienced the microclimate of the forest area.

"Music was playing, and there was a green light shining from above, and water was sprayed, I really liked that too," said Margarita.

Traveling through the Urals, the children met the main character of Ural legends, the Mistress of the Copper Mountain, and learned all about mountain gemstones.

The exposition "Journey Across Russia" showcases cultural, natural, and historical attractions, main achievements, and innovative developments of all the federal districts of the country. Entry to the exposition is free as part of tour groups formed through prior registration on the website russia.ru in the "Events" section.
