The Beer Museum is at the foot of Karl Marx street, tucked into a courtyard. It depicts the local Chuvashian brewing history (the Chuvash have the most beer history in Russia). It is the only beer museum in Russia. There's a bar on the top floor with many brands - mainly Buket Chuvashia but also some Yantar.

There is a little harbour from which you can make different trips, just across the Volga or longer ones. We went to the Jurino, a village with a beautiful church and a little palace, of which the palace was in a great need of reparations though, but you could still see that it had been very, very beautiful. However, now I was sometimes a little bit afraid that there would fall stones from the roof, because it was almost becoming a ruin... Guiding in Russian was included into our trip.

Enjoy its beauty!
You can also swim in it in the summer, (though people say the water isn't very clean, but when it's really hot I just don't care, I love swimming). There is a central beach in Cheboksary, behind the old part of the city, pretty long and with a lot of people swimming there when it's hot. If you cross the Volga (there are boats and a bridge, if you go by car or you can take a bus) the beaches on its opposite shore are even more beautiful, and much calmer (since there are not so much people).

It's a park in memory of the victory in the second worldwar. You can have a look at the monument (throw a coin behind your neck, and make a wish if you want:)), and it is beautiful there and a you get a good view of the city.

A small museum in the village where the third comonaut, Andrian Grigorievitch Nikolaev, grew up. I'll tell more here, soon.

This is not a custom, but just a cultural fact. In Cheboksary and its surroundings (Chuvasia) people do not only speak Russian, but there is also the Chuvash language (related to Turkish, according to what I have heard) which I think was the language originally spoken here. Today everybody seems to speak Russian (in the cities everybody do it but I can't tell 100% for sure about the countryside, since I've spent too little time there) and practically all older people and many (or all?) adults also know Chuvash language. However, though it is tought in school nowadays, all children haven't learned the Chuvash language since childhood, and it's like a foreign language for some of them. You can see text in Chuvash (together with Russian text) everywhere in Cheboksary: Street-names, on the trolleybus-stops, on shops...

Favorite thing: If you come to Cheboksary in the summer go down to the bay! A lot of people are relaxing there, drinking beer or lemonade or eating icecream, or going to the beach or even paddling around in the small boats you can rent (which however are not so safe and no good idea to put kids in).

I was in Cheboksary for 6 weeks during the summer 2002 on a language course, and that was my first visit to Russia. I hope I will have time to write the rest of that story here later on. Cheboksary...
My Cheboksary experience was just plain strange. But first let me tell you about the train ride. It was one of those classic Russian train rides you hear about from other travellers. True, it's one......
