The Embroidered Map of Crimea, created for the tenth anniversary of the Crimean Spring, was presented at the Exposition. It was crafted by more than 50 masters of folk arts and crafts from 25 municipal districts of the republic and Sevastopol.

The map was made during half a year, said merited master of folk arts and crafts of the Republic of Crimea, the author of the idea and one of the creators of the map Svetlana Sergeeva. It was first presented on the peninsula on March 18 - the day of Crimea's reunification with Russia.

"The map shows the sights of the Crimean districts and ornaments of the peoples who live on the peninsula. Its size is 3.5 by 2.75 meters. The total area is about nine square meters. We started the work last year and completed it by March 18," said Svetlana Sergeeva.
