Russian Province
To feel the real Russian province the “Golden Ring” trip is the best. The “Golden Ring” is the name for the trip that goes through Vladimir, Suzdal, Ivanovo, Kostroma, Yaroslavl, Rostov Veliky, Pereslavl. Each of these seven cities gives a unique perspective on Russian provincial life – laid-back and full of unusual contrasts. The land where the ancient Russia has started, home to many beautiful churches and cathedrals you won’t see elsewhere. Actually you could get to know Russia making this tour, it’s a real Russia. Between Moscow and St. Petersburg there’s old Russian town Novgorod. This is perhaps the oldest Russian town and it has retained the most “Russian feel”. Novgorod and Novgorod region is the place with beautiful nature, marvelous white stone architecture. Visiting these towns and surrounding villages you will see not only monuments, but also provincial Russian people life style.
