| Overview |
The Golden Ring is a ring of cities northeast of Moscow, and one of Russia's oldest routes. Moscow is a city of oriental irregularity and bizarre beauty, an eastern exotic transplanted to the west. After exploring this fascinating capital, we head to the ancient towns of Vladimir and Suzdal, the jewels of the Golden Ring, where we find unique monuments of Russian architecture dating back to the 12th century. We explore the Kremlins, convents and museums of these picturesque towns, and see many examples of the onion domes for which Russia is famous. Then it is on to the beautiful city of St Petersburg, the "Northern Venice" and former capital of the Russian Empire for over 200 years. We tour Peterhof Palace, the former summer residence of the Russian Tsars, and then wander around the historic centre of St Petersburg, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, overflowing with palaces, cathedrals, beautiful bridges over canals, spacious squares and wide streets.
