The Holy Trinity-St. Sergius Lavra “In the land of Moscow and all over the world there is no other monastery equal to this one…” - Archdeacon Paul of Aleppa
Reviewed By israroz - Ra'anana, Israel
One of the highlights of our trip to Russia, (my wife’s and myself, her sister, and my brother in law) was without any doubt our trip to the Golden Ring and especially to The Holy Trinity-St. Sergius Lavra church in the city of Sergiev Posad which is considered to be one of the most important religious centers in Russia and a pilgrimage site especially to believers in Orthodox Christianity. Since we arrived with our “private” guide who had “pre-arranged” personal guidance for us, so we “got” a young guide from the church staff who took us under his wings and led us to all the interesting places (and they are many) throughout the site. Explained to us the history of the place from its inception to the present day. Starting from the entrance area with the arched door and the amazing frescoes on the walls and ceiling and later all the spectacular sites (and they are many). In conclusion a most amazing place NOT 2 B MISSED.

Overall Ratings

One of the first museums of the wooden architecture in Russia. Here you can see a variety of peasant buildings of 18-19 cent, and the exhibitions about peasants household. It also can be regarded as a park.
Reviewed By dimitrys2020 - Moscow, Russia
True buildings of 17-19 century showing real life of Russian people in the village. Nice walk and sightseeing. Please be ready for 1,5-2 hour walk. Ipatiev Monestery is close by. So you can combine both easily.
10. Ivanovo State Museum of History and Local Lore of D.G. Burylin
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 153 reviews
The Burilin Ivanovo Historical Museum is considered to be one of the best Russian provincial museums. Its origins lie in the will of the Ivanovo-Voznyesensk manufacturer, Maecenas and collector Dmitriy Burilin. The Museum opened to the public on 26 December 1914. The design for the museum was produced in neoclassical order by the architect Pavel Trubnikov. The materials for the building were very expensive, some of them were brought from Italy - coloured tiles and mosaic for the floors and marble for the main stairs. In his work under the collection Dmitriy Burilin was trying to bring Russian province nearer to the treasures of the world culture. In several decades (from the late 19th - to the early 20th centuries) he created the unique collection of items, which covered a wide chronological period from antiquity to the early 20th century. The collection includes books, china, painting, weapons, numismatics, objects of decorative and applied arts and many other things.
