No comments · Posted by Sergei Rzhevsky in Culture, Travel
The Museum of Wooden Architecture and Peasant Life, located on the bank of the Kamenka River on the outskirts of Suzdal in the Vladimir region, is one of the most visited museums in the town.
Here you can see rare monuments of wooden architecture of Vladimir-Suzdal land. The museum is not large, it has only 17 wooden buildings: churches, a merchant’s house, peasant houses with interiors of the peasant way of life, windmills, granaries, wells.
Every year, on the second Saturday of July, the Cucumber Festival is held on the territory of the museum. Museum of Wooden Architecture in Suzdal on Google Maps. Photos by: Vasilii Nikitinskii.
