What to Expect and Is It Worth Visiting
The famous Divisional Commander Vasily Ivanovich Chapaev was born in the village of Budaika, which later became part of the city of Cheboksary. That is why the Chapaev museum is located here, which tells about the fate of the legendary divisional commander of the First World War and the Civil War and later became the hero of many works of art and folk anecdotes. In general, a whole complex of sights of his memory has formed around the museum: the museum itself; the old family house where Chapaev was born (restored and moved from another place); Chapaev square with his monument; memorial wall.
