Magnificent
museum.
Very
high
level
of
guides.
This
is
not
the
first
time
I
have
brought
students
from
grades
7-9
here,
and
not
for
the
purpose
of
simply
entertaining
or
gawking
at
unprecedented
objects.
A
visit
to
the
palace
provides
an
excellent
basis
for
a
more
meaningful
study
of
many
subjects
of
Russian
literature
(Karamzin’s
prose,
A.
K.
Tolstoy’s
novel
“Prince
Silver”):
it
allows
children
to
feel
the
spirit
of
old
Moscow,
even
pre-Petrine,
life.
And,
of
course,
the
figure
of
Tsar
Alexei
Mikhailovich
is
so
interesting
that
the
children
need
to
be
introduced
to
this
man.
An
incomparable
immersion
into
history
in
terms
of
usefulness
and
interestingness!
I
usually
bring
the
kids
on
a
full
excursion:
“The
State
Chambers
and
Private
Chambers
of
the
Kolomna
Palace”
-
duration
1
hour
50
m,
we
see
both
halves
of
the
palace:
both
the
men’s
and
the
women’s.
The
guides
were
different
each
time,
but
the
level
of
the
tour
is
always
consistently
high:
the
text
is
not
memorized,
you
can
feel
the
personality
of
the
employees,
who,
of
course,
are
not
random
people
in
the
museum
field.
The
guys
listened
with
great
interest
and
asked
questions
not
only
directly
based
on
the
guide’s
story,
but
also
on
related
topics
-
all
questions
were
given
detailed
answers.
From
the
negative...
This
time
our
trip
was
a
little
overshadowed
by
the
complication
of
the
system
of
entry
to
the
museum:
a
voucher
for
a
trip
for
a
group
is
normal,
but
each
child
must
attach
a
Muscovite
card
to
the
validator,
which
is
located
in
an
impenetrable
room
located
in
the
wrong
room
where
entrance
to
the
exhibition...
This
is
very
inconvenient.
Collecting
cards
from
all
children
or
sending
everyone
through
a
validator...
-
it
doesn’t
matter.
You
still
need
to
allocate
1.5
-
2
minutes
for
each
child.
And
no
friendly
staff
can
save
you:
cards
must
be
included!
Nevertheless,
I
recommend
everyone
to
visit
this
museum.
I
hope
that
I
will
bring
the
guys
here
on
a
regular
basis
in
the
future!
But
perhaps
we
won’t
go
on
a
tour
of
the
historical
part
of
the
museum-reserve
again:
it
is
uninformative
and
with
an
invariable
Orthodox
bias
(miracles,
icons,
visions,
discoveries...).
To
be
fair,
I’ll
clarify
that
we
chose
a
short
excursion:
“The
Tsar’s
Residence
in
Kolomenskoye
(without
visiting
museums)”,
45
minutes.
Although
the
children
are
happy!
