Description

Type: Single-day activity
Duration: 2 hours
* During the tour, we will take a leisurely walk along the street of first dates, museums, student and business meetings. The most beautiful buildings in the 19th century were built on the Georgievskaya Embankment in Nizhny Novgorod. The houses on the Verkhne — Volzhskaya embankment keep their secrets. I will reveal the secrets of the street development, the architectural features of ancient mansions. You will learn the biographies of outstanding people, hear colorful stories from the lives of the richest and most influential citizens of the late XVIII – early XIX, get acquainted with the dynasty of Nizhny Novgorod merchants, patrons of Rukavishnikov. Sirotkin's house on the Upper Volga embankment is impressive! You will hear about the secrets of the Soviet military commander, scientists, designers, pilots, artists, writers and just interesting people. According to the 18th-century British thinker Edmund Burke, history is a union between the dead, the living and the unborn. After the tour, the old manors will become your relatives in their own way, and famous figures are not faceless book characters, but good friends.

Organizer
Меня зовут Марина. Я — коренная нижегородка, хорошо знаю и просто обожаю свой город за фантастические виды, изысканную архитектуру, занимательную и самобытную историю, богатую культурную жизнь и особую атмосферу. Я люблю проводить пешеходные экскурсии, поэтому они получаются авторскими, уникальными. Интересный рассказ экскурсовода способен создать вам замечательное настроение. Легкость и эмоциональность и юмор, на мой взгляд, никогда не будут лишними на любой познавательной экскурсии. Я провожу экскурсии по самым интересным маршрутам любимого города. Гости остаются довольны приятно и с пользой проведенным временем. Мои экскурсии нравятся и жителям Нижнего, и гостям, потому что информация разнообразная и нескучная. Здесь каждый найдет свою "изюминку". Про Нижний Новгород можно и нужно рассказывать ярко и интересно.
