A special pride of Suzdal is the museum of wooden architecture with eighteen authentic buildings of the XVIII-XIX centuries, created by Russian carpenters with almost no tools, only an axe; it is this skill that makes the exhibition rare and truly impressive. In the center of the city there is a museum complex Spaso-Eufimiev Monastery, an architectural ensemble whose roots go back to the XIV century - the monastery was founded in 1352, and its walls store a centuries-old history of monasteries and crafts. No less important is the Suzdal Kremlin with monuments of the XIII-XVII centuries, harmoniously inscribed in the urban landscape and demonstrating the development of ancient Russian architecture.
