From the first years of its work, the All-Union Agricultural Exhibition was not only a “school of excellence” for workers, as originally conceived, but also a favorite holiday destination for Soviet citizens – both residents of the capital and its numerous guests. The exhibition was not just one of the “parks of culture and recreation” Moscow: the various playgrounds collected here were considered exemplary and demonstrative and should serve as an example for the entire Union. Guests of VSHV and then VDNKh could make a soothing boat trip along mirror ponds or famously ride on attractions created by the latest technology, visit concerts of favorite artists or see a fun circus performance, communicate with animals on the “hunting trail” or admire the delightful “green outfit” Exhibitions. The smallest details of the design, from floral compositions to the painting of the pavilions, were formed into a single fabulous ensemble that could not leave anyone indifferent. Well, to preserve memories for a long time helped a variety of souvenirs created by the best masters of the Union.
The publication for the first time collected unique materials dedicated to the history and culture of entertainment, cognitive and active recreation, landscaping and landscape design, souvenir products VSHV – VDNKh. The author presents previously unpublished photos and texts from public and private archives, as well as memoirs of contemporaries.
