Fabrika, once a soviet sewing factory, has been repurposed and transformed into a multifunctional urban space bringing together enthusiastic individuals ready to stretch their minds with new exhilarating experiences. Definitely worth visiting. Especially nice during weekdays when its not overcrowded. Courtyard adjoining the Hostel screams local and brings together interesting mixed crowd to connect on many different levels. This is where life unfolds, experiences are exchanged, new stories are set in motion. I actually work there :)
