The New Year mail service has been launched at the National Centre RUSSIA
Exchanging
holiday postcards is a cherished tradition loved by residents of our country.
It is especially heartwarming when wishes travel thousands of kilometers to
bring joy to the recipient. The National Centre RUSSIA now offers an
opportunity to send New Year’s letters to loved ones.
Ahead of
the New Year, the National Centre and Russian Post launched the project
"New Year Russia. Dreaming Together." Now, all visitors to the
National Centre can send messages with warm wishes to any corner of the world.
A special mailbox is located on the second floor of the National Centre, where
you can also find vibrant New Year postcards. The project has already gained
interest among visitors, who are happily sending messages to various parts of
our vast country.
"Some
of our postcards have traveled abroad: to India and Germany. I believe the
geography will expand. People really enjoy this project and participate with
great enthusiasm. Even children! Just now, kids from Chuvashia came by — many
were shy, but in the end, they wrote their wishes because they wanted to
delight their moms, dads, grandmothers, and grandfathers. Most children were
signing postcards for the first time and felt a bit lost, but together we
succeeded. The wishes turned out to be very touching and kind," shared
Alexandra Iskhakova, an employee of the National Centre RUSSIA.
You can
send postcards not only to relatives and friends but also to yourself — to bring
joy to your future self with a heartfelt message from the past. The project
"New Year Russia. Dreaming Together" will run until January 20.
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 National
Centre RUSSIA is located at 14 Krasnopresnenskaya Embankment, Moscow. The
Centre is open from 10:00 to 20:00 every day except Monday.
To mark the start of All-Russian Space Week, which begins on 4 October, the National Centre RUSSIA shares the stories of people involved in space exploration.
Host Alexei Slushchev and philosopher Konstantin Matsan discuss how ideas about human values have developed and whether they can influence our lives today.
In addition to souvenirs, a tea collection and healthy sweets, visitors to the Department Store showed particular interest in books.
