We only had about an hour on this day to visit the two Russian exhibits currently on display in the NC Museum of History. Normally, we could spend hours enjoying the exhibits contained in its walls. Of course photography was not allowed in the special exhibits so you'll have to go visit or take my word for it! The Tsars Cabinet was a collection of china, porcelain and crystal from the time of the Tsars. Windows into Heaven was a collection of icons from the Russian Orthodox Church. Both exhibits were beautiful and very well done and in English! Both exhibits captured the attention of even my youngest and it was fun to see some of the Russian symbolism we have gotten used to in our old home state.
