In the Japanese capital, the days of Russian enogastronomic tourism started. This was reported by employees of the organization "Tourism".

For seven days, workshops from popular and talented Russian chefs will be held in Tokyo. In addition, within the framework of the program, presentations of dishes of national cuisine of various Russian regions will be held with a mandatory tasting of ethnic delicacies. In particular, guests of the event can enjoy dishes of the Far Eastern cuisine, as well as favorite snacks of the residents of Komi and Buryatia.

Also, the guests of the holiday will not only get to know each other, but also get a chance to taste the products of the Russian agricultural sector. In particular, we are talking about wine, fruits, vegetables and fish products made and grown on the territory of the Russian Federation.

“It will not do without musical performances,” the organizers of the days of Russian Enogastronomic Tourism say. “Ethnic folk music groups and Russian ballet dancers will take the stage.”

As for the business program of the event, a series of seminars for Russian and Japanese tour operators on the possibilities of mutual tourism will be held within the framework of the project.
