RussiaCheboksary can not be called an attractive place for a tourist holiday with children. But if you are in this city during your trip, here you can find several remarkable places where you can take your children. We have prepared a list and an overview of such places in Cheboksary with an indication of their opening hours and the cost of visiting:
Red Square and Efremov Boulevard
These are the two main pedestrian zones in Cheboksary and a kind of tourist center of the city. This, of course, is far from a pedestrian Arbat like in Moscow or Bauman Street in Kazan, but it is from here that you should start a tourist acquaintance with the city. For children there is a ferris wheel and simple children's attractions, they are happy to get acquainted with the free installation about the achievements of the people of Chuvashia in the open air and are photographed with figures of animated characters Cheburashka and crocodile gene on the embankment near the square. And if you walk another hundred meters along the embankment of the bay towards the bridge, you will get to a modern playground, from where it will be difficult to take children away.
