About the event
The main attraction of this hike is Kizhi.
A trip to Kizhi is not so much a visit to a museum as a full immersion into a bygone era. Every day begins and ends with a bell ringing. There are many bells here, and each has its own history and its own unique sound. The largest bell weighing 800 kg was cast in the 19th century. The ringing ensemble fills the island with magical bell music every day.
Anyone can get acquainted with the life of the bygone time, try themselves in folk crafts and see how master woodcarvers create real works of art from an ordinary bar of aspen.
Kizhi is open to everyone who is not afraid to touch its unusual beauty. The island continues to transform, replenishing every year with new historical monuments and interesting buildings.

Itinerary
По размерам Кижи невелик: всего километр в ширину и около 5 км в длину. Тем не менее именно здесь был построен Кижский погост – комплекс из двух церквей и колоколен. Погостом на Руси называлась важная территориальная единица, имеющая административное и общественное значение, ведь деревень и сел было много, а церквей – намного меньше. До нашего времени дошло не так много классических деревянных церквей, но при строительстве Кижского погоста использовались умения и знания, укрепившие искусно обработанное дерево и подарившие ему особенно долгую жизнь. В 1966 Кижи получил статус архитектурного и исторического музея под открытым небом
