"The old merchant village of Vyatskoe is situated in Nekrasovsky district - one of the most environmentally friendly and historically significant areas of Yaroslavl region, 30 kilometres away from Yaroslavl city by Lyubimskaya Road, and 300 kilometres away from Moscow. Vyatskoe is first mentioned in the official records in 1502. In the 18th century two Russian Orthodox churches were constructed in the village – the Church of the Resurrection and the Church of the Assumption.
The fascinating history of these places, favorable geographical location, richest natural resources make this region an attractive land. The surprising beauty of the nature of central Russian plain with a web of rivers and lakes (of which there are 38 here), with expanses that please an eye in any season of the year, with soft climate - all this make these places interesting to study in summer and winter alike."
