A Little Extra<br />

Alley of Artists – This is a local crafts area in<br />

the Alley of Artists. It is an open-air exhibition<br />

and sale of local crafts, some of which are<br />

unique even for Russia.<br />

You can also have your portrait painted<br />

(gouache or coal) in just 15-20 minutes!<br />

What to pay: The prices are very low and<br />

depend on an item, but don't forget that it's<br />

not a shop, so bargaining is very much allowed!<br />

Pets<br />
