Craftsmen and artists from all over Russia offer a wide range of unique works including the world famous Khokhloma, Gzhel, Fedoskino and Dimkovskaya toys. In this 'town' you can walk along Craft Street and Artist Alley or visit flea, antique and silver markets. Vernissage is located in the beautiful historic area in Izmailovsky Park and near the Romanov Family Estate.
If you're looking for something made in Soviet times, there are lots of flags, symbolic badges, tableware, books, fur hats, pioneer ties and many others. For book lovers there can be editions dated back to the XIX century with old Russian orthography, for amateurs of exotics there is a carpet section, national wooden furniture, the northern peasant stuff.
