* Let's start our journey from Izhevsk, a city that began its history in 1760 with the ironworks of Count Peter Shuvalov. We will visit the Armourers' Square, near the ancient arsenal and find out why the most famous citizens were called crocodiles. In the very center of industrial Izhevsk, we will find a corner of untouched antiquity, and try the national Udmurt dishes, which were prepared by local housewives a hundred and two hundred years ago when they were waiting for dear guests. There is no way for a traveler on a long journey without luck. Let's take a look at the only blacksmith girl in Udmurtia to forge a happy horseshoe for a good trip. With useful artifacts, we will send horses to the Ural Mountain – it was from here that the famous cavalryman, the maiden Nadezhda Durova, set off on her campaign. The heroine of the Patriotic War of 1812 left her father's house and sewing to fight alongside men in battle. Descendants of the Hussars still live in Durova's native Sarapul. Together with a dashing cavalryman and a gypsy singer, we will throw a party in an ancient city. Dinner is based on original recipes from an old cookbook. On the third day, we go to visit the factory head's estate. A boy, Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, was born in his house. He was destined to become a great composer. Pyotr Ilyich's fame outlived his genius for centuries, and the piano that his mother gave him still sounds in his house. In memory of the visit to the famous manor, we will create an elegant souvenir with our own hands. Returning to our time, we will meet a beautiful plane with a lucky star on its tail. There is a sign that everyone who flew on it is lucky!
