A RUDN University student created an interactive culinary map of Vietnam.

Translation. Region: Russian Federation –

Source: Peoples'Friendship University of Russia

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

Fourth-year student at the RUDN University Graduate School of Management, Le Thi Huong Ly (Tourism major), developed and registered an interactive gastronomic map of Vietnam with Rospatent. The digital guide allows for a deeper dive into the country's culture, planning delicious itineraries, and supporting local businesses.

The project, created under the guidance of academic supervisor Olga Zeveke, is more than just a website. It is a research project that combines modern IT technologies with the preservation of cultural heritage.

What can the card do?

An interactive map is a comprehensive digital product that solves several traveler's problems at once:

Information. The map displays traditional dishes, drinks, and local products (delicacies) from different regions of Vietnam. Navigation. Users can find places to try local food, from street vendors to restaurants. Cultural immersion. Each spot is provided not just with a description, but also with cultural context—the history of the dish, its ingredients, and photographs.

This approach is fully consistent with the global trend of considering cuisine a key element of cultural identity and a powerful tourism resource. Vietnam's culinary heritage is rich and diverse.

Relevance of the project

The RUDN University student's development is interesting not only from a tourism perspective but also from an economic one. The map could become a tool for supporting local businesses, as it directly assists producers and restaurants by providing them with a digital "shopfront" to attract tourists.

"The project also fulfills an important mission of preserving and digitally recording unique recipes and traditions, which is especially valuable in the era of globalization," noted Le Thi Huong Ly.

Furthermore, the map is in line with the development of culinary tourism. The project fits perfectly into Vietnam's strategy for developing as a tourist destination, where experiencing authentic cuisine is the primary motivation for travel. The development of culinary tourism has been officially recognized as one of the country's priorities.

Technology and the Future

The project is designed as a website, making it accessible from any device. Its interactivity is a key advantage. Users can select regions, explore detailed information about dishes, filter establishments by type, and plan their own personal gastronomic itinerary.

The project's overall goal is to create a unified platform uniting culinary specialties (gastronomic attractions) from around the world. This is a striking example of how academic knowledge, applied research, and the personal initiative of a RUDN student can lead to the creation of a real, sought-after product at the intersection of education, culture, and modern technology.

Document

Order No. 3871-r of December 19, 2025

By 2035, Russia must establish at least nine scientific and technological competence centers, as well as up to 50 laboratories, aimed at developing new types of transportation equipment, as well as new materials and technologies for transport construction. This is one of the objectives of the Concept for the Scientific and Technological Development of the Russian Transport Complex through 2035. Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin signed the order approving this strategic planning document.

The new centers' areas of focus include the development of high-speed rail, autonomous (unmanned) vehicles, electric vehicles and charging infrastructure, hydrogen-fueled transport, as well as the development of the Trans-Arctic Transport Corridor and transport logistics technologies.

A research institute for transport will coordinate scientific research and experimental development for the transport sector, including through new competence centers. It will be established within the Russian University of Transport.

The new competence centers and laboratories are expected to increase applied scientific research, which in turn will lead to the launch of new start-ups in the transportation sector.

The same goal is pursued by the creation of youth technology entrepreneurship centers (business incubators) at industry universities and the launch of a grant program for student startup developers.

Comment

From Mikhail Mishustin's opening remarks at the operational meeting with deputy prime ministers, December 22, 2025

Commenting on the adopted documentmeeting with deputy prime ministers on December 22Mikhail Mishustin noted that one of the main goals is to transition to a centralized model for managing industry-specific scientific research, so that scientists can focus on solving the most complex technological problems.

"This will accelerate the development of promising markets, facilitate the development of competitive services based on innovative engineering principles, and ensure an improvement in the quality of life for our citizens," the Prime Minister emphasized.

Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Patrushev held a working meeting with Kostroma Region Governor Sergei Sitnikov. The main topics discussed were the development of the region's agro-industrial complex and environmental protection.

In 2025, the federal budget allocated to support the Kostroma Region's agro-industrial complex more than doubled, reaching approximately 450 million rubles. Systematic state support for the industry allows the region to steadily increase agricultural production. Furthermore, measures to bring agricultural land into production are aimed at this goal, which was also discussed at the meeting. Dmitry Patrushev noted the importance of providing farmers with the necessary material and technical resources and emphasized the need for timely delivery of state support funds to final recipients.

Sergey Sitnikov reported positive growth in vegetable and potato growing, as well as poultry farming. Furthermore, the Kostroma Region is a traditional cheese center in Russia. Seven large cheese factories operate in the region, producing over 60 types of cheese. Over the past 10 years, production volumes of this product, both nationally and in the Kostroma Region, have increased exponentially.

The Deputy Prime Minister and the regional governor also discussed environmental issues and waste management. As part of the national project "Environmental Well-Being," the Kostroma Region is participating in two federal projects—"Circular Economy" and "Forest Preservation." Plans are currently being developed to build new waste management facilities for the regional capital and the surrounding areas, where the majority of the region's population resides. Furthermore, by 2030, the region plans to acquire forest firefighting and forestry equipment, expand the area under reforestation, and establish and develop forest seed production facilities.

Marat Khusnullin: More than 6 million trips have been made by motorists using the Malye Vyazmy bypass on the Central Ring Road in the year since its opening.

In the Moscow Region, over the past year since the opening of the Malye Vyazyomy bypass on the Central Ring Road on December 22, 2024, drivers have used the new road over 6 million times, according to Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin.

"The Central Ring Road is the backbone of Russia's highway network and part of international transport corridors. Therefore, the new bypass around the village of Malye Vyazemy, which the President opened a year ago, has become a driver of development not only for the Moscow Region but for the entire central region. This has ensured efficient transport links between Moscow Region towns and strengthened interregional ties. We see that this bypass is in high demand among drivers: in the first year since its opening, drivers made over 6 million trips. The new road has significantly improved traffic conditions in Odintsovo, Zvenigorod, Golitsyno, Istra, and Kubinka, reducing travel time from Zvenigorod to Odintsovo city center and to Vnukovo Airport. Furthermore, the opening of the bypass has relieved the traffic congestion in Malye Vyazemy, which is crucial for the comfort of local residents," said Marat Khusnullin.

The Deputy Prime Minister added that the new road has a positive impact on freight traffic. On average, approximately 3,700 trucks travel along the section daily. Furthermore, the bypass eliminated the road's at-grade intersection with the Smolensk-bound railway tracks, where trains run at intervals of two to three minutes, or a maximum of five minutes, during peak hours. This created significant problems for drivers, especially during the summer season. Now, drivers no longer have to waste time waiting for trains to pass.

Vyacheslav Petushenko, head of the state-owned company Avtodor, noted that the opening of the Malye Vyazmy bypass was one of the most anticipated events for millions of residents of the Moscow region.

"It's important to note that the commissioning of this seemingly small section was of enormous significance for the region. The Malye Vyazmy bypass on the Central Ring Road immediately became a popular choice for drivers, averaging over 16,500 trips per day. Notably, peak traffic during the first year since its opening was most often observed on Fridays. For example, traffic peaked on Friday, September 26, 2025, when drivers made approximately 27,500 trips on the new section in one day," said Vyacheslav Petushenko.

The bypass around the village of Malye Vyazyomy has four lanes—two in each direction. Electric lighting has been installed to ensure safe passage at night. Five artificial structures have also been constructed, including three interchanges—at the intersection with Petrovskoye Highway, Yamskaya Street, and near the Golitsyn Poultry Farm—as well as a bridge over the Bolshaya Vyazemka River and a tunnel. For the comfort of Malye Vyazyomy residents, 29,000 square meters of noise barriers have been installed.

Marat Khusnullin: More than 52 million trips were made by motorists on the M-12 "Vostok" highway in two years.

Marat Khusnullin: More than 52 million trips were made by motorists on the M-12 "Vostok" highway in two years.

On December 21, 2023, Russian President Vladimir Putin opened the M-12 "Vostok" expressway from Moscow to Kazan. Since its opening, more than 52 million vehicle trips have been recorded on this section, according to Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin.

"The construction of the M-12 Vostok highway has become one of the most ambitious projects of our time. Thanks to the new expressway, travel time for motorists has been cut almost in half. The commissioned sections of the highway have had a multiplier effect not only on the regions they pass through, but also on the economy of the entire country. The road is in demand among motorists: in just two years since the launch of traffic from Moscow to Kazan, more than 52 million trips have been recorded. Thanks to the highway, new logistics routes are being formed. Thus, since the launch of traffic on the M-12 Vostok, more than 150 million tons of cargo have been transported. Moreover, the M-12 Vostok contributes to the active development of domestic tourism, and statistics for the regions located along the highway confirm this. A significant increase in hotel room occupancy is shown in the Moscow, Vladimir, and Nizhny Novgorod regions, as well as the Republic of Tatarstan and the Chuvash Republic – from 30 to 100%. Moreover, in these regions, the road has also given impetus to housing development construction, expansion of their urban development potential,” said Marat Khusnullin.

The highway's development continues. In July 2025, the President of Russia opened a new section of the M-12 highway from the town of Dyurtyuli to the village of Achit, extending the route to Yekaterinburg. Today, a high-speed, traffic-light-free route from St. Petersburg to Yekaterinburg is available, covering the distance in 22 hours—almost twice as fast as before. This is part of the "Rossiya" transport route from St. Petersburg to Vladivostok.

Roadside services are also actively developing on the M-12 "Vostok" highway. Currently, 24 multifunctional road service zones (MFSZs) operate between Moscow and Kazan. They provide all necessary services for drivers and passengers on short and long-distance trips. Furthermore, this year, the first hotel on this highway was opened within the MFSZ at kilometer 421 near Arzamas in the Nizhny Novgorod region.

According to Vyacheslav Petushenko, head of the state-owned company Avtodor, traffic intensity during peak periods is almost three times higher than the annual average.

"On sections of the M-12 Vostok near Moscow, the average traffic volume is around 40,000 vehicles per day, and during peak periods, it's around 66,000. Moreover, on almost every transit section, this figure is even higher in August and on holidays. For example, if the average traffic volume in the Arzamas area is around 10,000 vehicles, then during peak periods it's around 30,000 vehicles. Overall, the demand for the M-12 Vostok highway is growing along with its development. Sections of the M-12 Vostok located beyond Arzamas have shown significant growth—more than 40% compared to last year. This is due, among other things, to the opening in July of this year of the new Dyurtyuli-Achit section of the M-12, which connects the Republic of Bashkortostan, Perm Krai, and Sverdlovsk Oblast. This trend shows that long-distance trips are becoming popular among drivers, and transit traffic is becoming more and more popular. “more intense,” Vyacheslav Petushenko emphasized.
