In the Engels District of the Saratov Region, on the site of the landing of the first cosmonaut of the planet Earth, a thematic Park of Space Conquerors named after Yuri Gagarin was opened. Among the exhibits of the memorial and educational complex are a copy of the Vostok-1 descent capsule and a restored LAZ-695B bus, on which the cosmonauts were taken to the Baikonur launch complex. Around the stele and the monument to Gagarin there is a walking route “108 minutes” - that is how long its flight lasted. Near the main square of the park, a cedar alley was laid out, on which astronauts who made their first flight will plant new trees.
