Today we will travel through time with you – we will go to medieval Vyborg.
You will have an exciting walk through the unique historical center of Vyborg and visit the territory of the legendary medieval castle — the only one in our country!
You will also admire the beauties of the picturesque Monrepos Rock Landscape Park, a natural masterpiece that has no analogues in the North-West of Russia. Every corner of it is saturated with a special atmosphere filled with tranquility and harmony.
It feels like time is slowing down here, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the beauty of the world around you. However, the beauty of Monrepos is not only wild, untouched nature. For many years, skilled craftsmen have created a harmonious unity of nature and art here.
Founded in the 13th century by Crusaders, Vyborg harmoniously intertwined Swedish, Russian and Finnish heritage. This unique city was both an impregnable Swedish fortress, and part of the Russian Empire, and was part of the Principality of Finland.
You will walk along the narrow cobblestone streets, admire the oldest residential building in Russia, and admire the stone towers. And, right there, you will see modern buildings in the style of Finnish national romanticism.
During our tour, you will fully immerse yourself in the incredible atmosphere of Vyborg, full of secrets and myths, rich in extraordinary architecture and fascinating history!
The duration of the tour is 10.5 hours.
