Russian souvenirs
Russia is famous for its diversity, as well as its hospitality. The best way to show Russia to someone is to bring home something special. Matryoshka and balalaika are quite stereotypical presents. There are many other goods __that one may buy in Moscow as a souvenir__.
Woolen shawls have always been popular in Russia because of cold winters. The shawls made in Pavlovsky Posad, __which is a town not very far from Moscow__, are considered to be a traditional Russian gift. Woolen shawls and scarves have been made there since 1795. A wide shawl with a beautiful original pattern on it may be used like a blanket. It is nice to cover oneself up with it sitting in the armchair, watching a movie, __reading a book, or drinking coffee or tea__. The Pavlovsky Posad manufacture produces scarves for men as well. They can be bought through the Internet, or in brand stores, __which are situated in the centre of Moscow__.
Belyovskaya pastila is a souvenir __that pleases the people with a sweet tooth__. It has been made since the 19th century in the town of Belyov near Tula. This is a very special kind of Russian confection. Though it is called “pastila”, it is not a marshmallow style delicacy. Belyovskaya pastila is made of dried apples. After they have been dried, they are mixed with egg whites and sugar and whipped. Belyovskaya pastila is similar to a cake, __although it has a slightly sour taste__ of apples. It is considered to be a natural product, and it is not of average price. Tourists can buy this kind of sweet at some confectioner’s shops throughout Moscow.
