You have to visit this former nuclear icebreaker on a russian tour. Since we didn't understand any of what was being said we just took photos and looked up information online later. The tour moves quite quickly, so we didn't have time to read the English information on the walls.

It is worth the visit. I came here on a sleepy Wednesday afternoon. There were no crowds of schoolkids or tourists. So I wandered around its halls taking my time at looking at the exhibits or reading explanations.
