The shooting of the famous film didn't take place as everyone was thinking - in a village near Moscow, but in the Republic of Karelia, in a small town located in the very north of Lake Onega. Resort scenes were filmed in Batumi, and part of the filming took place in the pavilions of Mosfilm.

Scene was shot in the cafe "Fantasy" or as it was called by the locals - an octopus, it was abandoned in 2000 and completely lost its beautiful appearance. But recently it was restored and launched, retaining the appearance of 1975. Now anyone can visit it and even have a cup of coffee there. By the way, the menu in the cafe is not very big and it’s worth going for the sake of nostalgia and recognizable photos.
