From my point of view, the most interesting place is in the Yaroslavl region. I would especially like to thank the guide Irina for a very interesting two-hour excursion.

Like the kremlin, this monastery is surrounded by big white walls. The main church inside is beautiful, and I loved the decor.

As others have noted this church located next to the Kremlin is under restoration and looks like a burnt out shell. But this is what adds to the appeal, to see the faded wall frescoes and the empty iconostasis. We were fortunate to see some of the restoration of the paintings on the wall panels and doors in progress – obviously a very slow and painstaking process.

an unusual museum where everything is based around one theme, but the amazing collection of exhibits, excellent guided tour in Russian and fun activities the knowledgeable guide did made for a memorable experience and a great way of winding down after visiting the kremlin a couple of hundred metres away.
