Fioletovo is a cozy village where Russian Old Believers, known as Molokans, have preserved their unique culture for over 200 years. Together with the locals, we will learn to make pelmeni and other traditional dishes, enjoy a meal featuring the famous Molokan sauerkraut, pancakes, and tea from a samovar, and discover their way of life and traditions.

During a stroll through the village, we’ll immerse ourselves in the atmosphere of a true Russian winter and visit the house where Maxim Gorky once stayed.

A trip to Fioletovo to visit the Molokans is a wonderful opportunity to experience the life of Old Believers, relax, and enjoy delicious food, beautiful nature, and unforgettable memories!
