4 more

You will feel the beating of the centuries. Walk through the walls of the ancient Pskov Kremlin and descend into the mysterious caves of an active monastery, where the history of Russia is frozen in permafrost and silence. In one day - from powerful fortress towers to an underground necropolis, where the air is saturated with legends.

You will be transported to the world of Russian poetry. Walk along Pushkin's trails through the snow-covered parks of Mikhailovsky, sit on the Onegin bench and honor the memory of the genius at his grave. And after that, you will find comfort and relaxation at a campsite in the heart of a protected area, where the winter silence is filled with inspiration.
