The tourists came to the "Call of the Torama" — that's the name of the national ethnomar route. It is noteworthy that among the travelers there were many families with children, grandparents with grandchildren from Moscow, Nizhny Novgorod and St. Petersburg. The guests were happy to wear stylized folk costumes and look at the carved sculptures in the park, covered with January snow.

In 2023, work began on the development of the Call of Torama route as part of the national Tourism and Hospitality Industry project. During this period, the infrastructure of the route was updated, and the region received grant support in the amount of almost 86 million rubles. Of these, almost half of the funds were provided by private investors.
The Call of Torama has the status of a national tourist route. During the trip, tourists can immerse themselves in the culture and history of the Mordovian people. To do this, they can visit the museum of ethnography and a peasant manor, listen to folk songs, learn how to weave belts and bast shoes at master classes, and also taste Mordovian cuisine in a peasant hut.
In 2024, the tourist route "The Call of Torama" won the main prize in the nomination "Masters of Taste" at the exhibition "Rest 2024".
