Without clogging, the magic of forest baths and lake region: How to relax in Karelya and makeup for spiritual forces

Karelia has always been a magnet not only for guests from abroad, but also by the Russian people. Apparently, one hand extended one hand – and now very close. It is enough to reach Petrozavodsk and buy a car from there and choose a place where you will spend your holiday.

Recently, “Sinrin Yoku. Japanese Art” Forest Baths “I started to take care of the forest therapy I read in Qing Lee. And my mini trip in Karelia was a great reason to experience a city anti-Stress practitioner for him. I didn’t make a summit, I didn’t go to the summit, I didn’t stop the summit, I didn’t summit, I didn’t peak, I didn’t summit it.

On the first day, I couldn’t sit still, so I went to explore the environment, I joined the tour on the Jeep. During Stops in Pitoresque places that resemble staff from the Twin Pixes series (unless there is a mountain here), Dr. Following Qing Lee’s suggestions, I applied a “forest bath”. My mission was to forget the Moscow step (we’re always in a hurry, that’s true). Slow down made me more careful. For example, last year, I discovered Lingonberry, which was protected under the snow and the traces of the monster that turned out to belong to a pig. Although I have been standing at the hotel recently and I have no time to open a package, there was an increase in power. Perhaps Lingonberries and Cloudberries were filled with fruit -free fruit drinks, or perhaps my “bathrooms” in the Karelian forest moved.

This edge was covered in many stories and legends that I was willing to hear and feel the findings with my own hands. Among the two trees, there is still a small wooden chapel and Damian of the 19th century, which is not far from “Zaonezhya ında in the village of Goroderezhskaya Medvezhyegorsky. It is nice to see that the efforts of the local residents reign. Even after the restoration, originality was preserved. After entering the prayer room, you have been convinced how the average growth of the Russians has increased since then.

Of course, after such adventures, you need a delicious meal. The election fell into the Runa restaurant. For me, many dishes of the chef Alexander Maron were a discovery. Since I was selective at dinner, I liked the combination of Karelian cuisine with the Middle East. The main menu is completed with seasonal products and materials obtained by local fishermen, hunters, mushroom selections and plant experts. Even drinks here are their own production. My favorites with Rostbif from Olayana, duck with lingonberry sauce, pike chops, crispy potatoes, clouds and lingonberries, bite sauce and thahina. In our company, seafood lovers, trout and mussel and coconut Love of the Holyhikitho’yu appreciated.

Being here cannot miss the opportunity to visit Kizhi Island. This monument of Russian wooden architecture has the status of the UNESCO World Heritage Site. The museum-restraint stands on the island, so you can only reach with water. The community consists of two churches and bell tower of the XVIII -XIX centuries, and fences in the form of traditional Graions. I heard that the Lord was built by a carpenter Nestor with a an ax without a single nail. In fact, it turns out that the nails will never appear the diaries of the diaries, and therefore connect to the legend.

The time here flies unnoticed because there is something to be seen from outside and outside the versatile churches. The main thing is to take the season into account. Even in April, the tundra is still cold, snow everywhere, so you need to take winter business. After returning to the hotel, I stayed on the shelf of the books and found a guide for Kizhi and Karelia Temple Complex and many foreign books about art. In general, I took a blanket and hot herbal tea with me and went to sunbathing with a book in my hand. And a Lake Onega Lake, still not far from me, is still covered with ice, created his mood.

Every morning it started with a strong coffee, a hearty breakfast and a crisp toast with a snack with lingonberry oil. To protect a meditative mood, I went to the hall where you can do yoga in hammocks during the day and watch the films in the projector in the evening. I came early to enjoy a large area, meditation and snowflakes. Hotel Sergey’s owner is alone here in a warmer season, but more activities. For example, the locals like to fish here and foreigners buy boats.

I tried to enjoy as simple things as possible: Karelian cuisine, forest baths, reading and relaxing lessons in the hall. Such a simple entertainment helped to restart the effectiveness and convenience of such mini -travels.
