Dacha is an exclusively Russian concept. No European language has an equivalent for it. It’s impossible to call it a country house as it’s not a country house. It’s impossible to call it a summer cottage as it’s not a cottage. The only way is to use transcription and call it just “dacha”. Russian dacha is known for more than 300 years There are more than 12 communities with dachas near Krasnoyarsk. And they are the favorite places for citizens to move to in summer season. A cozy house, banya (bathhouse), vegetable garden and marvelous flowers are the typical attributes of any dacha.

Here you will meet a friendly host, listen to his stories about this lovely place, admire a great harvest, taste traditional dacha dishes – such as shashlik, potato, pickle and pancakes. If you want to take a steam bath with birch broom – you are welcome! Also you can try to cook Russian cuisine yourself!
