Take a look at the amazing water museum and Children's ecological center we visited --- This is a crazy rare thing in Russia, especially because it is FREE for kids to explore the learning center. This is an amazing exception in Russia, very refreshing to see :) First off, the water museum, which gave a visual history of water in St. Petersburg:
The historical museum is inside the old brick water tower
Historical water vessels
"I am looking --- But I can't quite see"
Transliteration: "Va-ter klo-set"
Across from the museum is the Children's Ecological Center, where we got to see how kids can learn about the water cycle, filtration, and the Baltic Sea area. They have lots of games, experiments, and fun activities that teach you about water, how it effects our lives, and where it goes after it runs down the drain:
