One of the oldest Russian music theatres which remains true to itself in developing opera and ballet art.

Folks, you've got to see this! Not many of you had ever heard of the town of Perm, yet they have an outstanding ballet company here. I have just watched their 'La Bayadere', a very worthy work indeed, rich costumes and stage design. How they manage with their budget I don't know. Having watched a very pale 'Nutcracker' in Opera de Paris where modest tickets come up to 150 euro, I always admire our regional theatres, somehow they find the means to splash out very decent settings. The dancers are beyond all praise, not just the main character, I absolutely loved their corps de ballet. And the girl who danced the title part is blessed with very good acting skills as well. The building is a monument of art as such. Did you know they had rebuilt it leaving the old walls inside? And they have about 3 feet of powdered glass under the orchestra pit for better acoustics. Take a theatre tour if you have time, it's worth it!

Public Transport to Kungur Ice Caves from Perm Best get there as early as possible as the tours get filled up quickly. 2 options by bus or train. Bus option You will need the bus to Lysva (via Kungur) No 677. Will take 1hr 35mins and arrives at train station. Give yourself about 20 mins to buy the bus ticket. On one occasion it took 1min the other it took over 15mins to buy our tickets as they wanted passports of all travellers. Train option From Perm 2 train station you will need the local/sub urban train (not Trans-Siberian). Aim for 7.20am. Ticket office is on the road side in a separate building to the right of the car park, in front of the main railway terminal building. You cannot buy these tickets from inside the terminal building. It takes just over 2 hours but costs 180Rbs. Cheaper than the bus. Once at Kungur. Go to the bus stop to the right of the front of the train station and take the No 9 bus to Filipovka to the last stop. Approx 5 mins. On reaching the end stop, go back to the main road, walk uphill for approx 50m andtake the left road/lane and follow this for 500m and it will take you to the Ice Caves. Return to Perm Take the No 9 back from where you got off to Kungur train station. Check when next train is. If you are lucky it may not be long otherwise it couldbe over4-5 hrs wait. The alternative is to go by bus. The bus station is to the left of the train station. There are buses back to Perm for 277Rbs but check which bus station it takes you to.

A great town sign with a great message. Nice and bright, and must be even nicer in the summer with the reflection of the river.
