In spring 2016 I went on a trip to the Baikal lake.

We didn’t plan to visit the Talzy museum, even more correctly to say, would be, that we didn’t know of its existence. But, some locals advised us to visit it.

To visit it, we had to get a car from Listvyanka village on the Baikal for 25 minutes.

As for the museum itself – it has a very unusual format. The official name is architectural – ethnographic museum. It has wooden buildings from different periods and buildings from ancient times of the people who lived on the lake. It also has quite a large number of crafts exhibitions, all which on a large scale territory on the Angara River shore.

Whilst walking in the museum, I dived into the past. Here are the photos:

A very magical place, indeed.

Whilst being on my trip, I always wanted to go back there, to visit the past, about 150 years backwards.

At the end of our walk, we stumbled upon a small canteen on the territory of the museum. We were very much surprised. We managed to eat so much food just for over 250 RUB for two people! Te interior of the canteen was also surprisingly nice.

Of the whole Baikal trip, I have very warm and vivid feelings left about this museum.
