    Nizhny Novgorod has the highest Volga embankment, and everyone can enjoy a wonderful view of the Volga expanses.

    After the bus part of the tour, you will take an exciting walking tour of the Nizhny Novgorod Kremlin.

    This is a unique military engineering structure of the beginning of the XVI century, which was one of the most important elements in the defense of the city.

    In the entire history of its existence, it has never been captured, despite numerous attempts.

    The oldest Nizhny Novgorod Cathedral is located here – Mikhailo-Arkhangelsky (an architectural monument of the XVII century), it is in it that the ashes of the great Nizhny Novgorod resident Kozma Minin are buried.

    From the Volga, the ensemble of the Nizhny Novgorod Kremlin resembles a "stone necklace thrown on the slopes of the woodpecker mountains."

    Next, you will have an excursion to the Voznesensky Pechersk Monastery.

    The monastery was founded in 1328.

    The rich history places this object among the main attractions of the city and the country, this object is protected at the federal level. 

    Today, the ensemble of the monastery occupies more than 5 hectares and includes 5 temples, a bell tower and bishops' chambers. 

    The bell tower of the monastery is a rare type of ancient Russian belfries of the XVI century, and during its existence it acquired a large slope like the Leaning Tower of Pisa. 

    The Laurentian Chronicle, the oldest of the chronicles, was compiled within the walls of the monastery.
