The first children tourism festival Rossinka was held in Moscow on November 4-6.

By means of videos, photos, poems and songs children were telling to the audience of the same  about the most interesting things of their cities - the facts that one couldn’t read in ordinary guidebooks. The experience was so successful that it was decided to repeat the festival next summer. In June 2014 the city of Veliky Ustug, in favour of which most of children has voted,   will become the venue for the Second festival.
All in all 75 children from five cities - Chelyabinsk, Petrozavodsk, Veliky Ustug, Kolomna and Borovsk – of average age from 12 to 18 years took part in the festival that was organized by

the Regional Council of Russian Union of Travel Industry (RST) with the support of Ministry of Culture of Russian Federation, Russian Federal Agency of Tourism and Moscow Committee on Tourism and Accommodation facilities.

The largest delegation of schoolchildren has come from Chelyabinsk, it has presented the documentary about Ural at the festival. Petrozavodsk has shown the folklore presentation about the city while the team from Veliky Ustug was headed by its most important resident – Father Frost. Yet, the town of Borovsk - a small town in the Kaluga region - has turned out ot be the real tourist “discovery”. Exactly in it there is the house where in 1812 French commander  Napoleon has spent the night.
