The artist Ilya Repin's museum-mansion
Repino, a beautiful village named in honour of famous Russian artist Ilya Efimovich Repin, lies on the Karelian Isthmus, on the coast of the Finnish Gulf. In 1899 Repin purchased a plot of land where he would live in a small house on the bank of the Finnish Gulf. The area’s sandy dunes, beaches and pine tree park remain some of the most beloved places around for people to rest and relax. Nowadays Repin’s estate, The Penates, has become one of few museums which not only houses many of the talented artist’s works, but also preserve the atmosphere of what life was like for creative intellectuals at the beginning of the 20th century.

Roebuck and mushroom hunting dishes
Khutor Muyshkino, a small settlement located 25 kilometres outside of Kaliningrad, is a popular destination for those looking to spend their holiday in nature, golfing and fishing. Many tourists call Mushkino “The Deer Farm” as it is home to a large European red deer and roe deer breeding farm where more than 1,000 animals live under semi-free conditions. The place is particularly popular among hunters, who flock there in hopes of shooting a deer or boar. The head chef at one of Khutor Mushkino’s local restaurants prepares gourmet dishes for the hunters from the animals they catch. In RTG’s new programme learn how to prepare a venison curry with cranberries and a rustic potato and mushroom pie.
