The Region Everyone Must Visit
Kenozerye is a forest and lake region, the place where in the
middle of the XIX century the Russian epos was written - 83 heroic
epics, local old men still remember fragments of ancient Russian legends
which were told by their grandparents for many centuries. Kenozersky
national park is situated in the south-west of the Arkhangelsk region.
There are about 300
lakes in the park. The biggest are Kenozero - 90 km2, Lekshmozero -
54 km2. People have been living near them for a long time. The Slavs
brought farming to this land: here appeared cozy villages, fields,
"holy" groves existing since pagan times, coniferous forests, ancients
crosses at the crossroads... And famous chapels, of course.
