Beautiful medieval towns

Popular tourist routes around Russia include The Golden Ring, which passes through important medieval cities and towns that have largely escaped modernization and industrialization. You may learn about the spiritual history of the Orthodox Church, sample traditional cuisine, and try your hand at historical arts and crafts while you're ensconced in this historic region of Russia.

One of Russia's oldest towns is the ideal place to go if you're looking for inspiration and peace. The Volga River, the longest river in Europe, flows through Ples, a city that has been dubbed "Russian Switzerland" for its beauty and ability to draw tourists. Ples is situated northeast of Moscow on its banks. The famous Golden Ring of Russia, which circles the major and most well-traveled provincial cities of Russia, includes a shining treasure that is also to the northeast of Moscow. Suzdal is a nice spot to go if you're searching for some spiritual tranquility. This tiny village, which is situated along the banks of the Kamenka River, is dotted with churches and historic monasteries. Suzdal, which dates back to the early 11th century, has retained its historic churches and monuments in their pristine state, transporting visitors back in time the moment they arrive.
