The complex is dedicated to traditions and hardships of life in Russia.
The Area consists of an exhibition pavilion - anomalous zone, ritual and household structures. The Area allows tourists to feel the possible closest contact with the magic Russian hinterland. And this magic is not of a divine nature, but it is ridiculous and routine, and it is not in a miracle, but appears in a touching ability of people to adapt to circumstances. Funerals, weddings, mushroom picking, christenings – all these traditions and much more you can see here.
