Historical districts of the city are made on a scale of 1/1250, and the most iconic sights have been enlarged to a scale of 1/300 and are now available for acquaintance with visitors with vision problems.

In particular, a modest synagogue has been enlarged there, like a cake - a Greek church, a low Armenian church, a pompous Holy Ascension Cathedral, a museum itself, a former zemstvo council that looks like a real town hall and, of course, She is a fortress.
