"Visiting the Royal Sheep"
The fabulous Tutaev is a city on seven hills, seven ravines and seven keys, and the wide royal Volga River divided the city into two parts, thereby determining its extraordinary fate and amazing history. Tutaev is an extraordinary two–in-one city: once upon a time there were two cities on the site of modern Tutaev – Romanov on the left bank of the Volga and Borisoglebsk on the right. In 1822, they were united into one, but since there has never been a bridge over the Volga (as there still is), both parts of the city largely retain their identity and characteristic individuality.
The route is available for students in grades 1-5 and children with disabilities of various nosologies in mixed groups (accompanied by an assistant or tutor), in the absence of contraindications to moderate physical activity.
