    Sergiev Posad and Pereslavl-Zalessky

    Sergiev Posad, the nearest to the capital city of the Golden Ring, is not only a centre of orthodox pilgrimage. Here you can take leisurely walks in picturesque places near the largest waterfall near Moscow and contemplate classic Russian landscapes.
    In the charming town you can go back to your own childhood with a glimpse of the Tsar's toys museum.
    In the afternoon you will go to Pereslavl-Zalessky, where you will have an opportunity to stroll along the unique lake.
