Evenki complex

@ Even in the Evenk complex plague, labazy and Evenk utensils are demonstrated. Buryat Complex

This complex is a collection of felt and wooden yurts and a dugan - a cult Buddhist structure. The peculiarity of the Dugan represented here is that it is an example of not ancient religious buildings, but the revived Baikal cult construction, borrowed in part from Russian architecture, partly taken from Devajin-dugan, taken from the Gusinoozersky datsan. Inside there is the famous "Tunshi" panel, illustrating the Indian fairy tale about four animals that harvest fruits from a tall tree

Predbaykalsky complex

Here is the farmstead of the Cossack Buryat and the winter house of the rich Buriat S.B. Safronov built in 1900. The building was transported to the museum from the village of Kharety in the Nukut district of the Irkutsk region

All buildings are real, brought from the surrounding villages, there is also an exhibition of household equipment, smithy, a shop and even a rich gate storing the certificate of the birth year of one of the granddaughters of the owner.

Ulan-Ude Ethnographic Museum

Municipal Complex

@ Here are the houses of the old Verkhneudinsk: the town house with a mezzanine built in 1900 from the street Pochtamtskaya, 22, and a corridor-type house built in 1909 from Lenin Street, 67. The house with the mezzanine once belonged to the official: today there is an exposition of the traditional interior home of a prosperous citizen of the early 20th century. The two-storey building of the corridor house gives an idea of the buildings intended for renting furnished rooms

The museum

The ethnographic museum in Ulan-Ude was conceived not simply as a museum telling about the life of the peoples of Transbaikalia - it is also a playground for active recreation of young people with interactive and sports games; and space for family rest; and the place of traditional rituals: matchmaking, wedding events; plus thematic excursions and consultations on traditional wedding attire and holding similar events. In addition, the museum regularly hosts folk festivals, performances of folklore ensembles

Somewhere in the late 50's - early 60's of the last century in the USSR was a real boom in the opening of ethnographic museums in the open air. Soviet citizens began to travel more themselves and foreigners finally also began to come to our country - tourists had to show so much that the opening of new museums was inevitable.
