One of Kostroma’s quirkiest exhibits is located about 20 km from the centre. An experimental farm founded in the Soviet times where the moose has been domesticated (as much as that is possible). Way back in Tsarist times there were moose domestication advocates, yet it was not until 1963 that this moose farm was founded. Today the moose wander the grounds of the farm and produce milk and antler velvet.
Many Golden Ring tours make a stop here, but if you are not on one, a taxi from Kostroma is your best bet; it should run you about 600Rbl if ordering two one way taxis, or 800 - 1000Rbl round trip if the taxi waits for you. Open daily 10:00 - 15:00.
