Sights in Tynda

  1. BAM Museum

    The BAM Museum, a couple of blocks southwest of the Orthodox cathedral (Sobor Svyatoy Troitsy), covers native Evenki culture, WWII, local art and regional wildlife, but is known for its four rooms of BAM relics and photos (no English). Two rooms cover the railway’s early years and the Gulag prisoners who built it. Look for the photo of sci-fi author Ivan Efremov, who secretly wrote while in the Gulag.
