Sights in Birobidzhan

  1. Regional Museum

    The Regional Museum has exhibits on local Jewish history (including an ad for a cheesy 1980s band Freilekhs), plus boars and bears and a mini- diorama of the Volochaevka civil war battle (akin to Khabarovsk’s bigger one, but here blood pours from the 3-D dead guy’s head).

  2. Freid

    Freid is Birobidzhan’s Jewish culture centre. The lively director is often around to talk local history or get you a souvenir yarmulke (skull cap).
