Grand Maket Russia is one of the most unusual museums in St. Petersburg. Here, in just a day, you can see a vast country, as the objects – mountains, buildings, cars, trains, people – are all 87 times smaller in size than the originals. The inhabitants of this magical country are from simply being extras. Each has a role, a vital story of their own: on the river a fish protection inspector is lying in wait to catch poachers; a builder is painting walls in an apartment, a passenger is hurrying to catch a train… There is humor to be found here too: in the taiga you can see a yeti, and in the courtyard of a building you can see a more sawing through the branch he’s sitting on. Of course, you can walk the length of this tiny country from west to east in five minutes. But it’s best not to hurry, and to use “the local transport.” The model is constructed in such a way that a passenger train leaving St. Petersburg will travel through the entire country to the Far East. We invite you on a journey!
