Torzhok: small town with a rich history
Torzhok is an ancient town in the Tver region and a favourite of the capital's directors. Twelve films have been filmed here! Filmmakers are captivated by its character and bright nature, from alien to ostentatious gloss. The presenter, Anatoly Kharitonov, will go to the museum of golden sewing, where he will find out why rich Novotorks carried a poodle of beauty. He will cook cutlets at a local restaurant, which were loved by the great poet Alexander Sergeyevich Pushkin. He will race through ancient streets in a "buggy" and try on the ringed armour of a druzhinnik.
We would like to thank the Torzhok city administration and Kristina Roganova, Tver region tourism ambassador, for their help in organising and conducting the filming.
