The next point of the trip is Old Ryazan, the only capital of the lands of ancient Russia that turned into a "dead city. The city did not exist for long: after its devastation in 1237 by Batu Khan, it could not recover.
Not much remained of the ancient capital: a huge hill with a flat top. Archaeological valuables were long ago moved to museums. And the half-destroyed red-brick arch is the remains of the church, which was built in the XX century in memory of the burned ancient cathedrals.
Look also in the neighboring Fatyanovka, which is surrounded by unique and unusual for the Ryazan region landscapes.
