  • Mohiniyattam is a classical dance form from the state of Kerala in India. Its name "Mohiniyattam" comes from "Mohini," the enchanting female avatar of the Hindu god Vishnu, and "attam," which means a dance. This dance is characterized by slow, flowing movements that express emotions and tell stories. The dancer wears a beautiful white and gold costume, which adds some elegance to the performance. The music is soft and melodic, played by such traditional instruments as the mridangam and the flute. One unique aspect of Mohiniyattam is its emphasis on facial expressions, or "abhinaya." Dancers use their eyes and facial movements to convey emotions and contact with the audience. This dance doesn't not only show the beauty of movements but also highlights the rich cultural heritage of Kerala. Today, Mohiniyattam continues to be performed at festivals and cultural events, captivating audiences with its charm and grace

Different styles and directions are used in dance, each of which has its own history and peculiarities. Indian dance is closely related to music and clothing.

Russia is a country with a long history, rich cultural heritage and generous nature.

Summer is the most favorable season for traveling in Russia. Even in a few trips it is impossible to see all the sights of Russia. One of the most popular tourist routes is the "Golden Ring" of Russia, connecting the ancient Russian cities: Vladimir, Sergiev Posad, Pereslavl-Zalessky, Suzdal, Yuryev, Kostroma, Rostov and Yaroslavl. The Kremlin and Red Square are the most famous and recognizable symbols of Russia, also the historical center of St. Petersburg and related monuments.

I personally believe what makes Russia special is its huge size, diversity in landscape and climate. You will never get tired of travelling in this country. I wish me myself (and also it’s advice to anyone willing to understand Russia properly) would cross the country on a train from East to West one day like it was done by a famous contemporary writer Alesandr Solzhenitsin when he returned from his exile stopping from time to time at the places he chose. The railway net in Russia is good and developed.
WELCOME to BEAUTIFUL RUSSIA!
