Borscht, black bread, kvass... What are your favorite Russian dishes? What kind of culinary culture does the vast Russia have? What kind of national dietary history do their museums collect?

In late November 2024, treasures from the Moscow Kremlin Museum will bring 'delicious' memories to the National Museum of China, launching the exhibition exchange journey for the 'China-Russia Year of Culture.'

The Moscow Kremlin Museums are a treasure trove of Russian culture and history, and a symbol of the Russian state. The collection 'visiting' the National Museum of China this time includes both everyday utensils that reflect the dietary traditions of the Russian people and dazzling fine art pieces from royal banquets. You will see the Russians' appreciation for traditional ingredients and learn how the Russian nation's warm and hospitable character is reflected in their hospitality. You will directly experience the influence and transformation of climate, religion, history, and foreign cultures on Russian cuisine, until the daily diet is sublimated into the art of living, becoming a condensed national culture.
