The Other famous St. Petersburg Kunstkamera Museum — Cabinet of curiosities — also began with a private collection, but of a different kind. Adopting foreign experience, Peter I became interested in the natural Sciences and made a "Cabinet of curiosities" with the anatomical and natural curiosities. The king was especially interested in anomalies of development: the Cabinet of curiosities assiduously collected are different from the norms of animals, plants and people. Impressionable better pass the pickled babies, but instead to take a look at the Mongolian Yurt, the layout of the traditional houses of Indonesian people, Minangkabau, painted Japanese Kokeshi dolls, rattles lenkiski shamans and other ethnographic wonders from around the world.

Armory Crowns, powers, scepters, thrones, the barm is in the Armoury chamber of the Moscow Kremlin gathered the lush symbols of the Russian autocracy and luxury of Imperial times. The Kremlin is a real treasure that emerged under Vasily III as a gun shop and gradually turned into a storage unit, received from foreign ambassadors or created in Russia. In a modern building, built by a favorite of Nicholas I Konstantin Ton, the Armoury moved in 1851. The oldest exhibit is the cap of Monomakh, which was crowned Tsar of all Russian rulers from Ivan I Kalita to Peter I. Girls probably will not get past room # 6, which exhibited the coronation outfits: dress of Elizabeth as if made of pure silver and gold (in fact, from brocade — brocade with gold or silver threads).

The Museum has a no-No, doubt the theory of evolution? The road to you in the Darwin Museum, everything is visual, not wriggle. The largest science Museum in Europe is not just a sad collection of stuffed animals and bones. Founder of the Museum Alexander Kots lovingly collected and presented the exhibits so that they talked about evolution without words. Askance looking boy-Neanderthal. Tigers and leopards represent a geographic variation, a showcase of foxes — individual variability. The joy of a baby chimpanzee like a smile younger brother. The most valuable exhibits of the Museum — extinct animals and birds, for example, a stuffed passenger pigeon and a skeleton of a flightless bird the Dodo.

Yasnaya Polyana of Tula Among forests and fields, sheltered Museum-estate Yasnaya Polyana where he was born and spent most of his life Leo Tolstoy. The estate is unusual: the decor is simple and modest, instead of classic lawns are vegetable gardens and, most importantly, there is absolutely not a Museum, the atmosphere of freedom that was so important to Tolstoy. "Prospectu", birch alley, which is repeatedly mentioned in "War and peace" and other books, go to the house of the writer. Inside it looks like the owner is about to return for dinner — even the table is set. Outside the illusion persists: in the stables are horses, roam the neighborhood geese and ducks, you can go to kucherskiy the house, where before the coachman waited for the owners, and now kept the harness and kinda different utensils.

"Experimentanium" "Experimentanium" was invented to prove that science is not boring. So you even need to touch the exhibits and take it all apart, to run, twist and pull. The Museum was created as a child, but adults, especially who grew up on the magazines "Young technician", will be delighted with him. You can see how a tornado is formed. To draw in the mirror. Park the car, hanging on four ropes. Take the test on the stability of the hands. Leave your mark on a bilateral contact with the wall. To be inside the bubble. Start the pendulums, to throw a coin into the black hole, to build arch bridge, catch hands electric shocks — when in one place so many interesting things, do not want to leave. Hence the only disadvantage to the "Experimentanium" — weekend crowded.
