Setomaa is a region shared between Russia and Estonia in southern Estonia, south of Lake Peipus. The region is inhabited by the Seto people who speak the Seto language, a variety of South Estonian. The cultural and historic center of Setomaa is Pechory. Setos managed to keep their traditions, unique lifestyle, language, culture, cuisine, and dressing customs. They are well known for the ancient polyphonic singing that the young generation inherited and embraced. The Seto Farm Museum is a great place to learn about Seto farm architecture, handicrafts, and old tools. Enjoy one of the traditional smoke saunas, visit Seto Studio/Gallery to see modern and traditional Seto art, and try trout fishing at the Piusa River.
