You could see ancient Rus in the 10th-15th centuries and take a peek at old-fashioned wedding rituals, or see military drills from the Time of Troubles. Petrine Russia held lessons on how to load a cannon, while hussars gave lessons on the art of handling a sabre. In the 20th century, guests dressed in historic costumes, stood side by side with demonstrators in honor of Gagarin’s flight to space in the 1960s, and enjoyed the taste of a real Soviet Eskimo ice cream in the 1980s.
