Kostroma is part of the famous “Golden Ring” of Russia.
The President placed a wreath by the Memorial of Eternal Glory and talked with veterans of the Great Patriotic War.
He attended a rehearsal of the play “Eternally Living” by Viktor Rozov at the Ostrovsky State Drama Theatre of Kostroma.
After the theatre, Vladimir Putin went to an exhibition of folk crafts and trades of the Kostroma region, and then went to the Holy Trinity Ipat’ev monastery. Here the history of the Romanov royal family began – in 1613 the founder of the dynasty Mikhail Romanov was blessed at the Ipat’ev Monastery.
