    It is a journey for those who like to see a lot of places in one day and love the road. I advise you to take a trip on Friday or Saturday, because these days the Kremlin in Rostov is open until 8 pm and then you will not miss a single point in your journey. During the day you will travel 318 km, see three historical cities of the Yaroslavl region, three different embankments, the Mouse Museum and the Museum of Myths and Superstition, two Kremlin, one of which will be in the skin of Ivan Vasilyevich, the one who changed his profession. After a happy return home, you will review old comedies of Gaidai.

    300 km of history

    Start your journey from the city of Myshkin - the city for those who want to immerse themselves in the charm of merchant, pre-revolutionary time - right in the XIX century. Then you'll find the ancient Uglich - a picturesque Russian city on the break of the Volga River. And, of course, unforgettable Rostov the Great. By the way, there are only three cities in Russia with prefix Veliky Novgorod, Ustyug and Rostov Veliky. Three cities - three stories and three hundred kilometers.

    Музей мифов и суеверий русского народа

    Here I advise you to go by car, as you have a very busy day and you are waiting for two more dots on the map, and it gets dark early. To get to this museum you need to say a funny joke phrase: "We are from friends and acquaintances". The name of the museum speaks for itself. You'll love it here.
    To get to the museum, you have to make an appointment for a tour. You can do this by phone, indicated on site of the museum.

    Ростовский кремль

    Rostov used to be the center of all Northeast Russia. For general information, when Rostov was already "Great", Moscow was just a deserted fortress on the bank of an unknown river. So you got into one of the great historical centers.
    It was the Rostov Kremlin that you saw in Gaidai's comedy "Ivan Vasilyevich changes his profession". When you return home, you will be able to review this film and see the places you just walked.
    The Kremlin complex itself includes churches, chambers, fortress towers and several civilian buildings - currently there is a museum-reserve "Rostov Kremlin".
    On Friday and Saturday the territory of the museum-reserve is open for visiting till 20:00.

    Митрополичий сад

    Originally the garden was conceived by Ion Sysoevich as the embodiment of heavenly riches, but in the end it only grew vegetables for the table of the metropolitan, but still a small garden is worth your attention. After the garden, you can walk to your dinner place on Marshal Alekseev Street, which is behind the Gostiny Dvor, a pedestrian zone with a memorial dedicated to the heroes - Rostov citizens, participants of the Great Patriotic War.
