Description

Welcome to Russia! The land of diverse nature and extremities. Spanning more than one-eighth of the Earth’s inhabited area, Russia makes the largest country in the world.  Rich in natural landscapes and enormous tracts of land, the country is home to the largest freshwater lake in the world. Rivers and forests encompassing amazing flora and fauna, awe-inspiring volcanoes, the icy tundra region and the sun-kissed beaches, colorful cultural heritage, remarkable historical monuments, and inimitable cities are what adorn this country and make Russia a beckoning land to explore.

Adding to its charm, the old Russian cities of Vladimir, Sergiev Posad, Suzdal, Rostov, Kostroma and others make the jewels of Russia’s Golden Ring. The majority of attractive sights to see in Russia are found in or near St. Petersburg and Moscow. Guided tours in these areas bring to life the culture, colors and history. Near St. Petersburg is Novgorod, one of the oldest settlements in Russia. Featuring the famous 11th-century St. Sophia’s Cathedral and Novgorod’s buzzing Kremlin, the heart of downtown, this city is worth a day trip to explore the rich history of Western Russia.
