A trip to Russia is always a good idea!

Enjoy Russian Students from Italy and Great Britain, a trip to Kizhi

We do love when students share the experience about Enjoy Russian school cultural program. This summer more than 70 students have visited famous Kizhi island, an open-air museum which is located in Karelia. 

Its landscape makes you feel at your granny’s cozy country house where you can walk on the grass, stroke a horse and get on the swing. The Museum has been researching, preserving and popularizing culture of the native peoples of Karelia for more than 40 years. The gem of this collection is the 22 domed Church of the Transfiguration of Our Savior.

Almost every testimonial touches upon Kizhi excursion. 

"Yesterday we went to Kizhi Island, one of the most interesting place near Petrozavodsk city. ☀️ beautiful nature and amazing people!" says Isabella Martina from Italy.

"The cultural program was also beautiful. We went to Kizhi Island, with whom I feel in love at first sight, and we learnt how to cook typical Karelian kalitki", says Clara. 

Can you imagine how beautiful the island could be in winter? Come to Russia to find out!
