Small geology museum showcasing regional minerals, fossils and polished stone displays. Photograph vivid crystal textures, patterns in slabs and museum interiors. Visit weekday mornings for fewer visitors; check opening hours and photo rules (tripod/flash often restricted). Lighting is mixed display lighting—bring fast lenses and plan macro shots. On-site parking nearby on Ulitsa Polzunova; modest entrance fee. Cultural note: local pride in Altai geology—ask staff about notable specimens.
