Classic Russian Day Out
Embark on a journey to experience the classic Russian lifestyle. Day out includes a visit to the State Tretyakov Museum, boating in the Patriarch's Ponds, and a traditional Russian dinner at Chemodan Restaurant.
- Begin your day at the historical State Tretyakov Museum, admiring the exquisite Russian art. Explore the rooms filled with pre-revolutionary art, and let the paintings tell the stories of the old Russian lifestyle.
- After that, move to the realm of Russian literature at the Patriarch's Ponds. You will learn why this place is so important for all the admirers of Mikhail Bulgakov's 'Master and Margarita'. Weather permitting, rent a boat and enjoy some time on the water in the golden autumn scenery.

- For the boat ride, ensure to check the timings and whether boat rentals are available on that day. Wear comfortable footwear as you might need to walk around the pond.

Some tips:
- State Tretyakov Museum can be quite crowded, especially on weekends, so try to go there early. Explore the museum at your own pace and don't rush, there's a lot to see.
- At Patriarch's Ponds, remember that boats are available for rent only during daylight hours. As September could be a bit chilly, don't forget to dress warmly.
