Why go

The fair moved to Nizhny Novgorod in the nineteenth century and became an important trading meeting point. The surviving main building now belongs to a modern exhibition complex, so today's visit differs from the historic market described in older accounts. Looking at the architecture still gives a concrete link to the commercial history of the river city.

What to look for
