Exhibition Centre and Perlovka - June 25


During the day we visited the All-Russia Exhibition Centre as it is called now, re-purposed after the Soviet break up and as such is a rather strange relic. There are many pavilions, most notable are for each of the republics.






















Most memorable feature of the exhibition site is the statue Worker and Kolkhoz Woman (Rabochiy i Kolkhoznitsa).







In the evening we went to see the house in Perlovka where Lila's grandparents used to live and she had spent much time there as a kid. Much had changed but still stayed the same.
