    The journey will take you back centuries and give you the opportunity to see the beauty of the monuments of architecture of Ancient Russia, represented as monasteries, temples, cathedrals and the Kremlin. It is a wonderful opportunity to touch the era and feel the full power of the national heritage of our country.
    Be sure to visit the smiths and the Museum of Wooden Architecture, which displays peasant life in the most authentic huts.
    The route also includes estates near Moscow that used to belong to the richest families in Russia. Now they are little known, but this does not prevent them from maintaining their charm and great atmosphere.
