The Russian House in Brussels and the Russian Geographical Society present the photo exhibition “Peoples of Russia” — a unique collection of works from the “The Most Beautiful Country” project, dedicated to the cultural diversity of our country.

The protagonists of the exhibition are residents of different regions of Russia — guardians of traditions, crafts, and national identity. Through the photographers’ lens, visitors will see sincere emotions, everyday life, celebrations, and rituals of the peoples inhabiting the vast territory of Russia — from the Far North to the Caucasus and the Far East.

The exhibition brings together the best works from the Russian Geographical Society’s photo contest “The Most Beautiful Country” — a large-scale project that has been revealing the beauty of Russia’s nature, culture, and people since 2015. The exhibition serves as a reminder of the richness of national heritage and the importance of preserving traditions and respect for cultural diversity.

“Peoples of Russia” is an opportunity to travel across the country without leaving the exhibition hall and to see Russia through the faces, lives, and stories of its people.
