Far in East, at the foot of regal Altai mountains exists a hidden gem of culture and history. A small village called Poperechnoye froze in time offering an opportunity to steep in old tales and whispers, ancient traditions and life of centuries long gone. A guest house-museum “Art of ISBA” immerses the travelers into the culture of Old Believers, whose descendants are still present. This is not a museum where you can only look but no touch. Try your hand at using old household items, make a central clay stove work.
This 250 year old taiga village is the place to escape the rush of a city. Surrounded by mountains, with smells of the forest and sounds of the birds, it’s a chance to reflect and shake the tiredness from your bones. Healthy and fresh food from the garden, local culture and arts, natural wonders - all of it and much more is at your disposal.
