Ryazan is an ancient city with a distinctive history. On this route you'll find out why Kolovrat's horse is rearing while Oleg of Ryazan's stands calmly; who keeps a close watch over the city; where the “Swan Princess” from Vrubel's painting lived; and how Hollywood is connected with an inconspicuous house. And you'll simply enjoy an unhurried stroll through the old streets of the historic center.

Historical Background

The second floor of the merchant A. K. Moskvin's house was home to the Daryaly cinema. Its owner was A. M. Sultanov, who had moved to Ryazan from Tiflis Governorate. Sultanov lured the public to the Daryaly with low ticket prices and the first snack bar in Ryazan attached to a movie theater. They say it was Sultanov who introduced the people of Ryazan to real Georgian shashlik grilled over charcoal.
