Bionic yurts, a virtual shaman and gastronomic diversity - all this was presented by the Republic of Khakassia on the Day of the Region at the RUSSIA EXPO.

At the exposition, the traditional dwellings of the Khakas people were presented in a modern format to show the connection between the past and the present. In one of the yurts guests can get their fortunes told by a virtual shaman, and in the second one they can learn about the history of the region, its attractions and mystical past.
