About
The famous "leaning" tower of Kazan is located in the very heart of the city — in the Kremlin. At the beginning of the 20th century, due to soil subsidence, Söyembikä began to shift from its vertical axis. The foundation was reinforced, but the tilt of about 2 meters remained. Take a photo with the tower in the background and admire the decorative columns, arches, and fairy-tale-inspired details. Free entrance

Traditional Souvenirs
Even simple figurines, badges, and magnets can make authentic gifts if they depict Kazan landmarks like the Söyembikä Tower or Kul Sharif Mosque, characters from Tatar legends like the dragon Zilant, or heroes from the fairy tales of national Tatar poet Gabdulla Tukay.
Tableware
Painted wooden spoons, porcelain bowls and cups, clay dishes and pitchers — unique gifts that are sure to be used. Planning to cook pilaf or other Tatar dishes? Then a high-quality kazan (cauldron) is a must.
