Nizhny Novgorod
Visiting the Goldfish
Residents of the Nizhny Novgorod region revere Rybka - she has become a real talisman of these places. And this story began a long time ago: the land in Boldin and the surrounding area belonged to the family of the poet Pushkin for four centuries, and now this village is a cultural monument of federal significance.
Here is the nationally known literary-memorial and natural museum-reserve of A.S. Pushkin “Boldino”, where visitors will learn about the three Boldino autumns in the poet’s life, which significantly enriched their native literature. After all, it was in Boldin that Pushkin wrote almost all of his famous fairy tales. The first was “The Tale of the Priest and His Worker Balda”, the second autumn on the Boldino land turned out to be the most fruitful for fairy tales - “The Tale of dead princess and about the seven heroes" and "The Tale of the Fisherman and the Fish." During his third visit, the poet wrote “The Tale of the Golden Cockerel.”
In memory of this legacy of the poet, another museum was opened in Boldin - dedicated to Pushkin’s fairy tales. The museum has many fascinating exhibitions: “The Tale of the Fisherman and the Fish”, “Thirty-three Heroes”, “The Tale of Tsar Saltan”.
The main part of the exhibits - magnificent panels and silk stained glass windows, dolls-characters of Pushkin's fairy tales, embroidery and products with cloisonne enamel - were created by children in the workshops of the Author's Center for Artistic Crafts in the city of Dzerzhinsk, Nizhny Novgorod Region.

In the courtyard of the tower there is a huge stone: “If you go to the right, you will lose your horse, if you go straight, you will end up in the tower to the Snow Maiden.” There is also a hill here, from which in winter you can slide down on a wooden sled - modern, but exactly repeating the ancient sled. Opposite the tower is a belfry: be sure to go there, ring the bells and appreciate their crystal melody.
