Kolotilovka, Rūķīši

Kolotilovka lies not far from Rīga, in the village of Rūķīši. Nikolajs Kolotilo, the creator of Kolotilovka, bought up several plots here and made a leisure complex of them. A good many celebrities have been his guests, and their photographs hang on the wall of the banqueting hall. According to the author of the post, Nikolajs put a great deal of effort and imagination into the exhibits shown on the grounds.

The grounds of Kolotilovka lie on both sides of the road. On the right is the leisure complex itself: a bathhouse, a banqueting hall, a pond with a very strange slide, and a hut on chicken legs that the author of the post calls a porn hut. Lenin greets you at the entrance.

On the left of the road is the island shaped like Latvia and the other exhibits: Adam and Eve, put up by Nikolajs for Latvia's centenary; a Ukrainian cottage inscribed "my house is at the edge"; a Trojan horse; unfinished cabins; and a monument to cuckolds at the entrance. Every exhibit has a subtext behind it, which can be learned from the owner of Kolotilovka.
