Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
Museum
Mammoth Museum
The photographed mammoth skeleton gives these extinct animals a tangible scale. The arrangement of bones and body proportions introduce palaeontology beyond a single image of a prehistoric animal.
Natural landscape
Kingdom of Permafrost
The Kingdom of Permafrost presents an ice setting arranged for visitors. Its material and frozen forms are the focus; the chosen photograph identifies the venue without promising that every sculpture remains unchanged.
Museum
National Art Museum of Sakha
The museum adds a fine-arts stop to Yakutsk. The photographed facade identifies the building; the works are explored through the institution’s displayed collections and programme.
Walk and landscape
Victory Square
Victory Square combines open urban space with commemorative monuments. Open views, alignments and sculptural forms shape a place of remembrance distinct from an ordinary strolling park.
