In 2018 and 2019, the service held a competition in which the Russians chose the locality with the funniest name, and last year it compiled an encyclopedia of the most unusual monuments in Russia with their 3D models. "This time, we decided to take a closer look at the private work of creative Russians - original architects, sculptors, mechanics and just talented enthusiasts. We want to draw attention to art objects and attractions that cannot be found in guidebooks. We also want to tell about the people who created their art objects, and to show how many different craftsmen live in our country, Sergey Pishchulov, founder of the travel community Tutu.ru, says
