Welcome to the Valenki tour
                            The window into old Russia!


Valenki (as the felt shoes are known in
Russian) are a potent symbol of Russia.
The items are often referred to as a
« Russian miracle »
The seamless, convenient and extremely
warm foot wear was appreciated by
everyone, from the Tzars to the
peasants.
The valenki is a less known
characteristic of Russian culture than,
for example, a Kremlin, Vodka or Bears


Terms and conditions
An excursion to Valenki museum takes
about 1 h and includes a photo session
in the Museum. One can touch all the
museum items.
Cost: 1-3 people 3700 rubles. 1000
rubles for each extra participant.
After the work is completed this will
become a valenok of less than my foot
                 size!
A snap shot of old Russia.
A valenki house- valenki is cosy like home ...
Felt means …transport!
