The Silchenkov family from Ulyanovsk — sisters Anna and Ksenia, along with their mother Oksana — took a tour of the National Centre RUSSIA. Thanks to the " New Year Tree of Wishes " initiative, thirteen-year-old Anna Silchenkova traveled to Moscow. Her dream was fulfilled by the State Secretary — Deputy Minister of Defence of the Russian Federation, Anna Tsivileva. The guests visited the Great Moscow Circus, Red Square, and many other landmarks of the capital, concluding their cultural program at the National Centre RUSSIA.

Their journey through the National Centre began at the New Year trees decorated with symbols of the federal districts, representing Russia’s diversity. In the "Library of the Future" and the "Hall of Inventions," the guests explored the connection between science fiction literature and real discoveries, played interactive games, and sent a symbolic greeting from space to their friends.
