Ryazan is very interesting city for tourist visits, but tourists don't seem to be particularly welcome here. Of course, there is an incredible number of interesting places that are worth visiting, but the tourist infrastructure itself - hotels, travel organization, improvement of places for walking and recreation, all this, unfortunately, in the city is still very far from ideal. And the city itself somehow does not look cozy and comfortable.
So, what to see in Ryazan? First of all, it is better to go to inspect its main attraction - the Ryazan Kremlin and the complex of the Transfiguration Monastery. The Kremlin ensemble, formed in the 16th - 18th centuries and consisting of walls, towers, ramparts, 8 churches, a bell tower and civil buildings, is very interesting not only for pleasant walks and mental relaxation, but also for pilgrimages and educational excursions.
The museums are located in the following buildings of the Kremlin - in Oleg's palace (historical exposition), in the Singing building (an exposition dedicated to everyday life and holidays of the Russian people), in the Hotel Cherni and in the Consistorsky building. Be sure to also visit the Kremlin's Assumption Cathedral - one of the largest Russian churches.
I would also advise you to go to Ryazan to the most romantic place in the city - Cathedral Park. This is a great place for walking, from here, from Trubezhnaya embankment, a magnificent panorama of the Ryazan Kremlin opens, there are also many architectural and historical monuments - to Sergei Yesenin, the heroes Patriotic War 1812, granite stele to Heroes Civil War, the Church of the Savior-on-Yar, Ilyinsky Cathedral and the Chapel of the 900th Anniversary of Ryazan.
Then you can wander around the historical center of Ryazan. It is limited to four streets - Lenin, Kremlin Val, Griboyedov and Yesenin, which is essentially a regular rectangle. Here you will see traditional Russian streets with a large number of old houses - former houses of nobles, merchants, banks, gymnasiums and hotels. Of greatest interest among them are the Gostiny Dvor, then the one-story house of Morozov, in which the great Russian writer Saltykov-Shchedrin once lived and the building of the Noble Assembly of the Ryazan province. Also along the way you will come across monuments - Evpatiy Kolovrat, Sergei Yesenin, M.E. Saltykov-Shchedrin and many others. 
Take a walk along Pochtovaya Street - this is a kind of local Arbat. A great place for pleasant and unhurried walks - benches, paving stones, many different restaurants and cafes. Both residents of Ryazan and tourists are considered to be a wonderful place for recreation.
Be sure to go to the city's Central Park. It is conventionally divided into the Lower Garden - Drunken Park and the Upper Garden - Natashkin Park. These gardens are located on both sides of Lenin Street. Among local residents the gardens are in great love, which is probably why the inhabitants gave them such peculiar names. This territory has been a park for a very long time, once all of it was the manor park of Gavrila Ryumin. There were ponds with swans and ducks, and there were fountains. But even now the park looks very decent. The most interesting place in the Lower Garden there is a sculptural composition "Mushrooms with eyes". Obviously, it reflects the essence of a well-known folk saying. 
In the Upper Garden (or Natashkin) you can see the monuments to Sergei Yesenin and Volodya Ulyanov with his mother, playgrounds and the Rock Garden. It is not known exactly in honor of which Natasha this park is named - according to one version, some Natalya committed suicide here from unhappy love, and according to the other - in honor of the famous Russian actress Natalya Klimova, who is a native of these places.
It is impossible, of course, having visited Ryazan, not to visit its pride - the museum of the history of the Airborne Forces. This museum is located right in the building of the Airborne Forces School named after General V.F. Margelova. This is a unique museum, it has no analogues in the whole world. In general, Ryazan is considered the birthplace of the Airborne Forces, so it would be unforgivable not to visit this distinctive museum. 
If you have free time, then do not regret it and take a fascinating journey along the Oka on a pleasure boat. The pier is located near the Ryazan Kremlin. On the way, you will see the ancient city from the water and admire its picturesque nature.
The museum-reserve of Sergei Yesenin in Konstantinovo is described in detail in the previous review, and I invite you to visit the St. John the Theological Monastery in Poshupovo Ryazan region... This ancient monastery, the foundation of which dates back to the XII-XIII centuries, is located very close to Ryazan. It is small in size, but well restored, very well maintained and beautiful as a picture. First of all, visit the temple of St. Seraphim of Sarov, where the relics of the last abbots of the monastery are kept. Then be sure to visit the Assumption Cathedral - there is a stunning faience iconostasis of amazing beauty. I don't even know where else you can find such value. 
If possible, also go to the village of Solotcha, located 20 kilometers from Ryazan. It is in this place that the territory of the famous Meshchersky Reserve begins, it is not for nothing that Solotcha is called the “gateway to Meschera”. There is stunningly beautiful nature here, it is not for nothing that this place is considered a resort area. But the most amazing place here is, of course, the Solotchinsky Monastery. It is incredibly ancient - it was founded in 1390 by himself Grand Duke Oleg Ryazansky, and during the campaign against Kazan, Tsar Ivan the Terrible stayed there with his retinue.

Last year we carried out the project "Travel along Yesenin Street" and came to the conclusion that the inhabitants of our city know and remember the name of our famous compatriot poet Sergei Alexandrovich Yesenin, they preserve the memory of him in the name of the street and try to preserve this memory for future generations of Ryazan residents.
S.A. Yesenin. We also decided to carry out another
one project in memory of our famous fellow countryman.
We enjoyed traveling and decided to go to
path, this time through the places of the city of Ryazan, which are associated with the name of Ser-
gay Alexandrovich Yesenin. Of course, we will not only have to travel, but also sit in the library for reference literature, and
to work with sources of information on the Internet, and, of course, we will take a lot of photographs in order to show others the results of our work.
Since we have to carry out the work on the project after lessons,
we will work in a group together with the 6B grade.
Forward!
We set off from this place, where a kind of symbol of the city of Ryazan is installed.
“And we have mushrooms with eyes in Ryazan. They are being eaten, they are looking. " This saying is so popular that it can be called a kind of Ryazan brand. Despite its local nature, the proverb is widely known
on and outside the city. Well, in Ryazan, one has only to say: "And here in Ryazan ...", and any city dweller will immediately pick up and finish the phrase. But even the old-timers cannot tell the story of the origin of this strange proverb, let alone explain the meaning. And such a mystery is generated
there is even greater interest in this unusual proverb.
In 2013, the Ryazan authorities decided to materialize their banner
This proverb, and in the city park near the Philharmonic a monument "Mushrooms with eyes" appeared.
The sculpture consists of three large mushroom not just "with eyes", but with real human faces. And the largest mushroom can even boast of its long, beautiful beard. Around the pain
of these mushrooms, small mushrooms are located, already without eyes. The most attentive observers will be able to find a snail, a frog, a lizard and a ladybird among the mushrooms. There is a bench around the monument - you can sit next to the mushrooms and take a photo as a souvenir.
This is the place from which we set off on a journey through the Yesenin places of the city -
yes Ryazan!
The village of Konstantinovo is one of the most amazing places on the Oka River. The great Russian poet Sergei Yesenin was born here on October 3, 1895. The poet's childhood and youth passed in the village of Konstantinovo.
The village of Konstantinovo is located on a high picturesque bank, from where a magnificent view of the Zaoksky distance opens. Here you will see the house of the poet's parents and remember his beautiful poems, forget about the bustle of the city and enjoy the beautiful Russian nature.The most important attraction of the village of Konstantinovo and the entire Ryazan region is the House-Museum of Sergei Yesenin.Work on the reconstruction of the memorial appearance of the peasant estate of the parents of the great Russian poet Sergei Alexandrovich Yesenin began after the order of the government of the RSFSR on the opening of the memorial House-Museum of S.A. Yesenin in Konstantinov, in August 1965 in connection with the upcoming anniversary date - the 70th anniversary of his birth.This decision was preceded by a long period of formation of public opinion on the perpetuation of his great singer in the memory of the people. A fair assessment of his creative heritage, his role in the spiritual and cultural life of the country.
And it began like this ...
In Konstantinovo, immediately after the death of Sergei Alexandrovich Yesenin, fans of his poetry began to come, reaching the village, most often on foot. In the Yesenin house they were greeted by the poet's mother Tatyana Fedorovna Yesenina, the local librarian Maria Dmitrievna Vorobyova. Thousands of entries appeared in the notebooks introduced for reviews with the wishes to open a museum of the poet in Konstantinov.
Specific work on preparation for the opening of the museum began with a working visit to Konstantinovo in the first half of August 1965, a commission that included writers, museum specialists, architects, artists and, most importantly, direct witnesses of the time of Sergei Alexandrovich Yesenin's stay in Konstantinovo - sisters poets Ekaterina Aleksandrovna and Aleksandra Aleksandrovna.
A commission created at the Writers' Union of the RSFSR to perpetuate the memory of S.A. Yesenin was headed by the poet Sergei Vasiliev and the famous literary critic Yu.L. Prokushev, who earlier convinced the leadership of the Ryazan region to petition the Government of the RSFSR to open S.A. Yesenin Memorial House-Museum of the poet.
In the house of S.A. Esenin at this time housed an exhibition on the theme "The life and work of S. A. Yesenin", performed by the Leningrad Pushkin House(Academy of Sciences), and was village library... And around - a sad to the point of tragedy picture of the ruin and neglect of Yesenin places. It was necessary to start from scratch. To recreate the atmosphere of the poet's family, corresponding to the time of his stay in this house, to find out everything that is connected with the life and work of the poet in the village of Konstantinovo. Here help needed provided by the poet's sisters. At that time, some of the household items were stored in the attic of the house and in the yard, the lost items had to be replaced with typological ones, finding out what the partitions in the house were, how the household items were located, how the curtains on the windows looked, with what lace trim. The poet's sisters also spoke in detail about how the thatched hut, which had not survived on the parent's estate, looked like temporary housing immediately after the fire that happened in Konstantinov in August 1922, and advised to restore this hut to the opening of the museum, a temporary hut, trees on the estate , The Cherry Orchard. They recalled with particular warmth that the only surviving apple tree on the estate was planted by their father Alexander Nikitich in 1921.
Then it was necessary to find out everything connected with the life and work of S.A. Yesenin in the village of Konstantinovo. According to Ekaterina Aleksandrovna Yesenina, S.A. has repeatedly visited the manor house of Lydia Ivanovna Kashina, the last landowner of Constantine, which was located nearby. Yesenin. But it housed a consumer services complex, the rooms inside the house were redesigned for production areas, furniture was not preserved. The history of this house was a blank spot. Little was known about the fate of the mistress of this house, her family.
The territory of the former manor house was also disfigured. On the site of the park cut down during the war, there were brick farmsteads and other outbuildings. A particularly depressing impression on all of us was made by the dilapidated building of the Church of Our Lady of Kazan directly opposite the Yesenins' house: the bell tower was demolished, the walls of the refectory were dismantled, and grain was stored in the altar. The buildings adjoined the church: a garage for tractors, a large weighing station, where cars arrived one after another. On the site of the bell tower there was a warehouse of fuels and lubricants, which clearly posed a serious fire hazard for the memorial house-museum. Indeed, in August 1922, the Yesenins' house and the nearby house of priest Ivan Yakovlevich Smirnov burned down. Of course, it was difficult to navigate at once in such a cluttered area next to the Yesenins' estate. It was decided to limit the creation of a museum on the Yesenin estate. Concrete work has begun on the creation of a memorial museum of S.A. Yesenin.
Over the course of several days, chairs, a Gabyu wall clock in a wooden case, two chests, a mirror, a large bucket samovar, an oak table with carved legs were repaired in Ryazan, an icon of the Kazan Mother of God was restored. The craftsmen considered it a great honor to do the work for the museum, they did everything carefully, almost free of charge. They quickly recreated a cupboard, found wooden beds that existed in Konstantinov during the poet's lifetime. From Leningrad, from the Pushkin House, they brought the famous lamp with a green shade, in the light of which the poet worked in his parents' house, as well as a lock of hair cut off for memory after the death of the poet.
And on the morning of October 2, 1965, the country's first museum of S.A. Yesenin as a branch of the Ryazan Regional Museum of Local Lore. Several thousand people gathered in front of Yesenin's house, despite the fact that Konstantinovo could only be reached by a dirt road. The bright morning sun filled the kitchen, the front of the House of the Poet, with a reddish, solemn light through the window on the east side. The first honorary visitors entered: famous poets Alexander Prokofiev, Sergey Vasiliev, Nikolay Rylenkov, Kaisyn Kuliev, Alexey Markov, Stanislav Kunyaev, Sergey Vikulov, Alexander Filatov, poet Yulia Drunina, literary critic Yuri Prokushev, sculptor Alexander Kibalnikov and other figures of literature and art. The first honorary guides - the poet's sisters Ekaterina Aleksandrovna and Aleksandra Aleksandrovna - spent the first historical excursion on the House-Museum of S.A. Yesenin. For several hours the poets read poetry in front of the house. Suddenly flown in from the Oka floodplain northern cold wind hurricane force did not prevent the completion of this first Yesenin poetry festival in Konstantinov. The following year, in the summer, a stream of tourists literally swept the "low house with blue shutters."
We got to Konstantinov as best they could: on foot, on passing trucks, on dirt roads from the Divovo station and the town of Rybnoye, by motor ships and boats along the Oka River. If in 1965 the House-Museum was visited by about twenty thousand people, then in the next - already twice as many. Passenger ships from Moscow began to dock at the Konstantinovo pier. They swam slowly, slapping on the water with plates of wheels, becoming three in a row. Perhaps the most sincere admirers and adherents of S.A. Yesenin went ashore from the paddle steamers "Sergei Yesenin" and "Mikhail Prishvin" to see the harmony of the amazing Yesenin images, everything that once helped Sergei Alexandrovich to create them.
The path-path along which Sergei Yesenin ran to the Oka at one time, climbed the hill to the House-Museum of the poet past a dilapidated church with an ugly heap around scrap metal, caused a feeling of bewilderment and bitterness. Only in the parents' house these negative emotions were extinguished, and the visitors were imbued with the magic of Yesenin's poetry. Something had to be done. The regional newspaper Priokskaya Pravda published an article, and immediately after the newspaper's speech, measures were taken to liquidate the ill-fated warehouse.
And in the summer of 1967, the veil of mystery began to rise over the manor house of the addressee of the lyrics of Sergei Yesenin, Lydia Ivanovna Kashina. Anna Andreevna Stupenkova, who was in Kashina's house as a child, came to Konstantinovo, her mother served there as a housekeeper. Vividly, with a certain amount of artistry, she told how she witnessed Sergei Yesenin's first visit to a house with a mezzanine. On a frosty sunny day at the end of 1916. A.A. Stupenkova spoke in detail about the purpose of the premises of the house, about her last meetings with the former mistress in the 1920s. Her message that Lidia Ivanovna Kashina after 1918, when she was evicted by the peasants from the manor house, lived in Moscow and worked in one of the Soviet institutions, was encouraging: perhaps someone from Kashina's relatives or friends is still alive. Meeting such a person would open another page creative biography poet, would help to obtain new unknown materials for the creation of a museum in this house.
During 1968 and the first half of 1969, the Ryazan Special Scientific Restoration Workshop carried out a large amount of restoration work, and on October 3, 1969, a literary museum was opened in the house without reconstructing the memorial domestic interior. After this, the next step in the reconstruction of Yesenin memorable places, we breathed more freely - it was where to receive sightseers.
By this time, S.A. Yesenin, given its great cultural significance, an asphalt road was built. Regular buses began to run regularly to Konstantinovo. The Ryazan Excursion and Travel Bureau has arranged to send bus excursions to the museum.
In the spring of 1972, a decision was made to transfer the building of the Kazan Church to the museum. Architect Sergei Vasilievich Chugunov in a very short time developed the design documentation for its restoration. The All-Russian Society for the Preservation of Historical and Cultural Monuments began to allocate money annually for production work to restore the building of the Kazan Church, and since 1975, exhibitions of artists have been held in this building.
The years passed. The museum workers began to restore the manor park of L.I. Kashina according to the project developed by the Moscow Institute "Lesoproekt". In 1982, the museum was visited by the Chairman of the Council of Ministers of the RSFSR M.S. Solomentsev, who, as it turned out during the excursion, was fascinated by the work of S.A. Yesenin. He agreed with the proposals to reorganize the literary-memorial museum-reserve in State Museum-Reserve S.A. Yesenin. The resolution of the Council of Ministers of the RSFSR took place on March 7, 1984. According to this government decree, the boundaries of the museum-reserve, the general scheme of its further development, developed by the Moscow Institute "Spetsproektrestavratsiya", were approved. This was the path from the memorial House-Museum to the State Museum-Reserve of S.A. Yesenin.
All-Russian festivals dedicated to S.A. Yesenin, on the poet's birthday in the village. Konstantinovo - All-Russian holiday of poetry, dedicated to the Day birth of the poet.
The museum currently has the following exhibitions:
- The Yesenins' estate
- Museum of the poem "Anna Snegina"
- Church of the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God
- Zemskaya school
- Literary exposition
- Spas-Klepikovskaya second-class teacher's school
The Yesenins' estate.
In the center of the village of Konstantinova, opposite the church of the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God, is the Yesenins' estate. Here, in 1871, the poet's grandfather Nikita Osipovich Yesenin built a house where Sergei Alexandrovich Yesenin was born on September 21 (October 3 - in a new style), 1895. Over time, the dilapidated grandfather's house was demolished, and in its place in 1909 a new, smaller one was built. It is with him that Yesenin's poetic image of the "golden log hut" is associated. In 1965, a museum of the famous Russian poet was opened in this simple village hut. Over time, a whole complex appeared in Konstantinov - the State Museum-Reserve of S.A. Yesenin. But his heart is still the "low house" of the Yesenins, restored in 2000.
The exposition of the house takes us back to the 1920s, when, being a poet glorified throughout Russia, Sergei Yesenin came to his parents' house to rest here with his exhausted soul.A spacious entrance leads to the warm part of the house, where, among the peasant utensils and tools, the sickle and half-cut of Tatyana Fedorovna Yesenina, the poet's mother, stand out.It is worth entering the residential part of the house - one cannot but pay attention to the small kitchen with a snow-white Russian stove and household items. On the table flaunts a bucket "grandfather's" samovar - a witness to many tea parties in the Yesenin family.Opposite the kitchen is a hallway with a Dutch oven. The poet slept on a wooden bed near a hot stove when he came to his parents' house in the cold season.
The largest and lightest room is the upper room. In the red corner - icons of Tatiana Fedorovna, her pectoral cross. On the wall next to the stove are family photographs and Sergei's certificate of commendation, which he received at the end of the zemstvo school. The "wooden clock" also counts the time, as if an oak table with a kerosene lamp under a green lampshade was waiting for the poet, in the light of which Sergei Yesenin often worked.From the upper room we find ourselves in the room of the poet's mother. Here are her clothes and the famous fur coat - "shushun", in which Tatyana Fedorovna often went out on the road and, peering into the distance, was waiting for her son.
Museum of the poem "Anna Snegina".
Next to the church of the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God is the estate of the last Konstantinovskaya landowner Lydia Ivanovna Kashina. Sergei Yesenin met the owner of the estate for the first time in the summer of 1916. At this time he was already the author of his first poetry collection "Radunitsa". Lydia Kashina became one of the prototypes of the main character of the poem "Anna Snegina". Sergey Yesenin visited Kashina's house more than once, since he had friendly relations with the hostess. In 1918, after the nationalization of the estate, the poet helped Lydia Ivanovna move to Moscow, he himself stayed in her Moscow apartment. After the revolution, Kashina's country house was used for the needs of the village, and in October 1969 a literary exposition was opened in it. On the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the poet's birth in 1995, the rooms of the house housed expositions of the museum of one of Yesenin's poem - "Anna Snegina".
Museum expositions occupy the first floor of the “house with a mezzanine”. The exhibits tell us about the life of the Kashina family, its guests, fellow villagers of the poet. Manuscripts, photographs, household items help to draw parallels between the inhabitants of the house and the heroes of the poem, tell about the life of the Constantine people during the years of the revolution. Among the exhibits are the memorial grand piano of Lydia Ivanovna, her miniature chest of drawers, a box and other items. Autographs of Sergei Yesenin's poem "Anna Snegina" accompany visitors to the museum in almost every hall. They can be used to trace the poet's attitude to the First World War and the revolution, the mood of the villagers in the "harsh, terrible years", the relationship of the heroes. The exposition presents the first collection of poems by Sergei Yesenin "Radunitsa", personal belongings of the poet: inkwell, paperweight, ashtray, notebook cover, etc.
The mezzanine of the house houses temporary exhibitions from the museum's funds.Museum of the poem "Anna Snegina" through acquaintance with the house where the poet was, immerses the reader in the atmosphere of the events described in one of the best poems by Sergei Yesenin
Church of the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God.
In the center of the village, not far from the Yesenins' house, on the banks of the Oka, there is a church of the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God. The first mention of a temple with the same name dates back to 1619. In 1779, at the expense of the owner of Konstantinov, Prince Alexander Mikhailovich Golitsyn, it was erected according to the project of the architect I.E. Starov Kazan stone church with a chapel of the martyrs Vera, Nadezhda, Lyubov and their mother Sophia. In the future, all the landowners of Constantine monitored the condition of the temple and tried to renovate and decorate it in time.The benefactor of the local church was also the priest Ioann Smirnov, who was forced to leave his ministry in the 1920s.
In 1937, the building of the temple was turned into a grain warehouse; collective farm machinery was placed on the territory of the church.In the 70s, the building was handed over to the museum as an architectural monument of the last quarter of the 18th century. Temple for a long time served as an exhibition hall.
In 1990, at the request of the inhabitants of the village of Konstantinov, the Church of the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God was returned to the Ryazan diocese.
In 2001, the bell tower, destroyed in the 50s, was restored. The refectory was painted again in 2007 (the refectory paintings were lost). In 2008, the four-sided murals were restored, which in 1905 were made by icon painters who stayed in the Yesenins' house.Since January 2004, the church of the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God has been a parish church. Divine services are regularly held there.
Zemskaya school.
Not far from the Yesenins' estate is the building of the zemstvo school. In 1879, the peasants and the local landowner S.G. Kupriyanov apply to open a school in Konstantinov, and the rural community donates 60 rubles for this. In February 1879, a school of its own appeared in Konstantinov. Many peasants gave their children to it; the father of the future poet, Alexander Nikitich Yesenin, also studied at the zemstvo school. In the summer of 1898, the school building was rebuilt. In 1904, Seryozha Yesenin crossed its threshold.Unfortunately, the memorial building has not survived to this day.
In 1994, the building of the zemstvo school was restored, and soon an exposition was housed in it.One of the two classes of the school is history. It tells the story of the zemstvo schools in the Ryazan province. The exposition presents photographs of rural schools, teachers, methodical literature, teaching aids, as well as children's books published for the people. Particularly interesting is the educational geographic map 1895 release, since she is the same age as Sergei Yesenin. All these exhibits give an idea of the system of primary public education in Russia at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries.
Another class is memorial. Its setting takes us back to 1904-1909, when Sergei Yesenin studied at the zemstvo school: a red corner with an icon of the Mother of God, slender rows of desks, portraits of Emperor Nicholas II and Empress Alexandra Feodorovna on both sides of a black chalkboard, floor counts, educational paintings on the subjects of the Sacred history. Visitors are attracted by large visual aids with Church Slavonic and pre-revolutionary Russian alphabets.In the corner is a clock once donated to the school by the trustee.I.P. Kulakov. In the window is a slate from the Yesenin family, old recipes and textbooks, school supplies. Nearby are photographs of teachers of the future poet Ivan Matveyevich and Lydia Ivanovna Vlasov, priest John Smirnov, who taught the Law of God, documents, including a certificate of Sergei Yesenin's graduation from the zemstvo school and a list of students "tested" (who passed final exams) in 1909. From the last document it is clear that Sergei Yesenin, despite his mischievous character, was a round excellent student.
In the year of graduation, the young poet starred with his fellow villagers on the site in front of the temple. This is the earliest photograph of Sergei Yesenin. In an enlarged form, it adorns one of the walls of the memorial class.In the classrooms of the zemstvo school, silence does not always reign. Very often schoolchildren come here for unusual "Yesenin" lessons to feel like classmates of the poet.
The life of Sergei Yesenin is closely connected with the Ryazan region: here the poet was born and grew up and returned here several times - first, during his studies from the nearby Spas-Klepiki for the holidays, then - from European and overseas capitals. Having left in July 1912 for Moscow, the poet always remembered his "small homeland" and never tired of singing it in poetry. On this journey you will visit native village Yesenin Konstantinovo, the places in which he performed, you will recognize Sergei Alexandrovich not as a hero of the series and scandalous publications, but as a close, domestic, dear person.

Hello. I visited the Yesenin places. The guide is a storehouse of knowledge of the life history of Sergei Yesenin. I learned a lot about the life and work of Sergei. The guide knows many poems by Sergei Yesenin. And the recordings of poems performed by Sergei Yesenin himself are indescribable impressions.
Most recently, we visited the Yeseninsky places in the Ryazan region. The impressions are still fresh and very bright! The museum unites several objects. Everything is decorated with such a soul. An incomparable excursion, interesting, informative! Of course, the nature is very beautiful. Indeed, who knows, had Yesenin been born elsewhere, could he have become such a great poet? I recommend everyone to visit this excursion!
Ksenia is a competent, knowledgeable guide. She was able to satisfy diverse interests different people... She is sociable, punctual, knows her edge. Contact her and you will not regret
Olga is just magical! From the very beginning, she told us that she is not just a guide, but a kraelyub, and she very much managed to make us fall in love with these beautiful places. Do not take a guide on the spot - a waste of both time and money. Olga told everything in such detail that it does not fit in my head how you can remember so much information. She is very well educated not only within the framework of this walk, but in general she knows a lot - feel free to walk together in Ryazan itself and in its environs! P.S. Olga even gave us small gifts, which is doubly pleasant - a person not only does his job well, but does everything with love. Many thanks!
The day spent with Ksenia brought a lot of positive emotions to our family, including our 15-year-old son. Our journey was dynamic and emotionally easy. Special thanks to Ksenia for visiting Divovo and the stud farm. Despite the fact that the stables of Divov were destroyed, an almost destroyed minaret remained from the house, Xenia managed to recreate the image of this place, Nikolai Adrianovich Divov and his relatives. Thank you for the pleasant conversation, and not the monotonous story in Konstantinovo, for your love for Yesenin's work and the ability to present information in such a form that even viewing photographs in a literary museum turned into an exciting process of learning what we knew from childhood, as well as learning new ones. earlier we didn’t known details life and work of Sergei Yesenin.
On one of the warm, spring days, we decided to visit the Yeseninsky places of Konstantinovo.
The village of Konstantinovo - Yesenin's homeland is located 43 km from Moscow on the high bank of the Oka and stretches along the coast for 3 kilometers. People have been living in it for almost four centuries (the first mention dates back to 1619).
The Konstantinovo Museum Reserve includes several buildings: Yesenin's parental house, L.I. Kashina's house, a zemstvo school and a church
Yesenin's house in Konstantinovo conveys the atmosphere of everyday life, home decoration of the time when the poet visited his parents. The estate of the poet's parents is a simple peasant estate with simple peasant utensils. Yesenin's sisters took care of the safety home furniture, books, household items and now we can see them in the exposition of the house-museum.
On the territory of the estate there is an old wooden barn, there is a temporary hut, and at the far end of the estate there is a barn, which was used for drying firewood.
There is a wooden zemstvo school near the house. Sergei Yesenin studied here, and in 1909 he graduated with a Certificate of Commendation. And here, first of all, you see a classroom with desks and a blackboard, the poet's slate board, you see the school of that time.
In the very center of the village of Konstantinovo, there is the Church of the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God - an architectural monument of the 18th century. In this church, the priest I.Ya.Smirnov - Father John married the poet's parents, and then baptized Sergei himself. Young people and the intelligentsia often gathered in the priest's house, and creative evenings were organized. Now in the house of the priest I.Ya. Smirnov also has an exposition showing the interior of Yesenin's time.
Before the revolution, the owners of the village changed several times and the last owner was L.I. Kashin, which was often visited by S. Yesenin. Now the appearance of a manor house has been recreated in the Kashina's house and a “museum of the poem by Sergei A. Yesenin“ Anna Snegina ”has been created (L. Kashina is in some way a prototype of Anna Snegina). In this museum you can see Yesenin's manuscripts, works published during the poet's lifetime, the book "Radunitsa" with the author's autograph, as well as the furnishings of the manor house.
The entire surrounding nature can also be considered the museum's exposition, and almost the main one. From the high bank of the Oka, from the poet's favorite chapel, an unmatched view of the Oka and flood meadows opens up. The latitude is extraordinary. Sitting here, Sergei Yesenin drew his inspiration, the ideas of his poems were born here. It is here that the "country of birch chintz" ...
After visiting all the expositions, looking at the life of that time, photographs of the poet's relatives, you begin to better understand the poet's poems, our past.
Photos are just a reflection, a picture, it is best to visit this beautiful village yourself, stand at the monument to S. Yesenin in the courtyard of his house, wander along the paths where the poet's foot may have stepped.
Watch a short video about the poet's homeland and see the difference in the life of peasants and landowners, the beauty of the "country of birch calico."
