The lecture will transport listeners to the era when railroads changed the nature of tourism. Travel became a way to see museums, exhibitions, and cities for the sake of experiences. Fashion historian and collector Tatyana Efremova will explain how cultural tourism was born and what people took with them on long journeys. In the second half of the 19th century, railroads reshaped the usual rhythm of life. Travel became faster, more accessible, and clearer; people began to travel not only out of necessity but also for new experiences. Lecturer Tatyana Efremova will discuss where and why 19th-century travelers went. The focus will be on routes, cultural programs, the first travel agencies, hotels, and restaurants for different budgets. Listeners will learn what people used on the road, what helped the first tourists navigate cities, choose attractions, and preserve experiences, and what souvenirs they brought home. The lecture is part of the exhibition "The History of Tourism and Travel: From the 19th Century to the 20th Century." For places to go with children in Moscow, check our website.
