First of all, they arrived at the Salavat Yulaev Museum, where a tour of the exhibition halls was organized for them. Then the veterans went to the place of the native village of Batyr Tekeevo. The geogark of Geopark Zilya Sadykova told in detail about the history of these places, about the route of PS. Pallas; showed the main attractions: a stone yurt, stelae. Then the travelers proceeded to the Idrisov Cave, where they saw beautiful rocks, caves and the Yuryuzan River; heard many amazing legends about these places; saw drawings of primitive people.
