 The first passengers from Novosibirsk have used the Swiss air-taxi and came to Tuva on Friday. The goal of the tourists from Novosibirsk was to see the "Scythian gold".
"I have read so much about the unique collection of jewelry from the royal kurgans of Scythian era, which are kept at the Tuvan museum - said Andrei K. - I have been dreaming about seeing it with my own eyes not just from curiosity, but also from practical interest. I am involved in production of jewelry, and I try to take note of everything. Not just the new stuff, but works of old master-craftsmen as well. Sometimes they bring a new impetus of creativity."
 The Novosibirsk businessman spent the weekend in Tuva and returned home today. Beside the museum, he also visited Kundustug arzhaan and Cheder lake. He took a photo at the Center of Asia obelisk. The possibility of compressing his time in Tuva efficiently proved to be the most decisive aspect: "Of course, I understand that two days are not enough for Tuva, they were talking me into taking trips to other lakes as well. But maybe next time. Right now I it was important for me to take a look at the Scythian gold. I am happy that I managed it," - says Andrei.
