Golden Ring Tours
After touring in the capital of Russia it is great to visit another popular destination, the Russian Golden Ring – symbolic ring of cities northeast of Moscow. These ancient towns comprise the cradle of Russian culture. From as far back as the twelfth century, monuments as well as traditions have been preserved in these historic regions. Fortresses, aged monasteries, stone churches, gilded domes, onion-shaped cupolas, frescoes, icons, wooden homes – all these compose the heartland of Russia, the Golden Ring.
Traveling around the Golden Ring region has become classic tours both for Russians and foreign tourists. Taking the Golden Ring tour is a good way to learn more about Russian history, culture and traditions, and to get the taste of the very special atmosphere of the provincial Russian towns. |
