The Irtysh Region: Where to Go for a Perfect Weekend

Omsk, Muzeynaya Street

Muzeynaya Street opened its doors to new horizons at the “Lyubinsky.Travel” showcase. Eighteen municipal districts of the Omsk Region, cultural venues, and local tour operators gathered to share their best weekend itineraries and highlight the summer festival lineup — from the bustling city to the quiet countryside and back.
