Наконец-то посетили музей "Куликово поле". Приехали в пятницу, народу было немного. Воспользовались услугами экскурсовода потому что какая не была бы продвинутая выставка, вживую послушать очень полезно! Всё очень понравилось: выставка супер, сам музей очень интересный. В общем, приезжайте, Туле есть чем гордиться).
