Favorite places of Shoigu, Putin and Pelsh

Many famous people have long favored the Altai Krai and regularly vacation there. The head of state is no exception. Vladimir Putin doesn't vacation very often. He doesn't even take a vacation every year. But Vladimir Vladimirovich spent one of his last vacations in Altai with Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu.

The exact vacation spot of these two high-ranking officials was kept confidential for security reasons, and, naturally, Putin and Shoigu forwent the popular tourist attractions. Instead, they opted to engage in various types of fishing, including underwater fishing, ride through the taiga on an all-terrain vehicle, and take a walk through the forest. In short, they enjoyed the beauty and richness of the region.

Another famous person who fell in love with Altai vacations is Valdis Pelsh. He loved the place so much that he even made a film to promote Altai travel. Pelsh believes Altai is a place everyone should visit at least once in their life.
