Matryoshka is a worldwide known symbol of Russia and the most popular souvenir - a number of glazed wooden dolls of different size that can be put inside one another. Matryoshkas may be painted in various ways and look like a famous politician, a culture icon or an animation character. However, a classic Matryoshka doll looks like a woman dressed in a traditional Russian dress with colourful scarf and red cheeks. This activity will be the perfect opportunity to spend a good time in the Northern Capital, learning more about Russian culture, and bringing home a unique souvenir made by yourself.
