If visiting Russia as a tourist, it's important to be aware of some cultural rules and traditions. Guests should give up their place in public transportation for older people, give flowers to women but not men in an uneven number, make way for and greet older people, say "good appetite" when others are eating, arrive on time for meetings and events, avoid jumping queues or talking loudly in public places, and remove shoes when entering someone's home. Following local customs will help ensure positive interactions with Russian people.
