A citizen of Kirov modified and decorated his carriages and sleigh to make them look different from other vehicles on the city’s streets. The troika – three horses harnessed abreast, typically pulling a sleigh – is one of the main cultural symbols of Russia. The owner of such carriages and sleigh can earn money by renting the vehicles to newly married couples to enter their wedding reception site.
