Let's continue our journey going now to Teriberka Village and its boat cemetery. The village used to be a large fishing center and began to decay in the 60s when coastal fishing lost its significance. Besides, it so happened

that to deliver fish to the village, it is necessary to first register it in the city of Murmansk which makes it unprofitable. As a result, the fish factory of Teriberka is experiencing hard times too.

Any holiday is the best time to discuss sweets. Today we'll talk about marshmallow made in Kolomna which is one reason that makes the city worth visiting. The museum of marschmallow was opened in Kolomna in
