While we were at the springs, we also visited a small museum and saw a painting of Peter the Great. He was 6 feet 8 inches tall, which was really big for people in those days. No wonder everyone looked up to him and followed his orders!


There was a beautiful small church there, too, and we got to go inside and take some pictures. The Russian Orthodox churches have a lot of paintings of religious figures or icons. The icon colors were still very bright on all of the paintings, in spite of the fact that they were very old.






This couple gave us a tour of the church.
