Discover Altai’s culture by visiting historical museums, ethnoparks, and Russian Orthodox churches, as well as learning about Shamanic rituals, tasting traditional cuisine, and listening to throat singing. Participate in unique activities like sleeping in a house built on beehives, taking a traditional Russian sauna, helping construct an ecological trail, or learning how to cook pelmeni (Russian dumplings).
