Walks in Tula

Visit one of the oldest Russian monasteries on the banks of the Nara River, founded by Sergei Radonezhsky and Prince Vladimir the Brave, hero of the Kulikovo Battle.
Admire the eight churches of Vysotsky Monastery. Look at the majestic Zachatyevsky Cathedral, which was built under Boris Godunov. The cathedral, having the form of a regular square, is crowned with five onion-heads.

On the way to Tula, stop at the memorial "To the Defenders of the Sky" dedicated to the heroes-pilots of the 171st Red Banner Fighter Regiment.
The height of the monument is almost 30 meters, diameter - 100 meters. The central element of the monument - German Fokke Wolf Fw-189 and Soviet La-5FN made in 1:1 scale. The German scout seems to be crashing into the ground, while the Soviet fighter, on the contrary, is flying victoriously upwards.

Welcome to the hero city of Tula!
The first thing to do is to eat some colourful pelmeni with a variety of fillings. By the way, children up to 7 years old are treated to free pelmeni.

What could be better than going straight after lunch to the place where they not only tell you about the most delicious gingerbread in our country, but also show you how to bake them yourself? Here you can also buy a sweet present for yourself and your loved ones.
The tour must be booked in advance by contacting website.
Important: there will be a break in the museum from 14-15 o'clock!

Explore the main and, importantly, well-preserved landmark of Tula - the Kremlin, built in the early 17th century to defend the Moscow direction from the Crimean Tatars.
The complex includes the 18th-century Assumption Cathedral in the Russian Baroque style, the late 19th-century Epiphany Cathedral built in honour of the soldiers of 1812, shopping malls and the city's first 20th-century power station.
There is an opportunity to take a walk around the Kremlin on your own, or you can book a guided tour. Or even an entire quest.
Important: the Kremlin does not open on the last Tuesday of each month.

Take a walk through evening Tula!
Stop by a very "young" art object - the Tula alphabet, each letter of which stands for something Tula residents are proud of, from Arsenal football club to Yasnaya Polyana manor house.

The monument to Tula's main character is 2.5 meters in diameter and weighs more than a ton. We can even hold him and take some original selfies.

A small and very pleasant pharmacy with the real things that were in the pharmacies of the time, in a historical location - in the same place from the XIX century until 2011 really was a pharmacy.
In addition to the pharmacy exhibits, you can also see a horseshoe flea.
To get to the pharmacy, you will have to climb the original cast-iron stairs, preserved since the 19th century.
To learn more about the pharmacy's exhibits, sign up for a tour by calling 8 (487) 231-26-61.

Monument to Leo Tolstoy, a native of Tula province, erected almost half a century ago. Curiously enough, Tolstoy was conceived barefoot, but it seemed strange to the city authorities. So, in fact, Leo Nikolayevich turned out to have shoes in granite.

Go to the restaurant with its own brewery, smokehouse and bakery to dine and discuss your experiences. After dinner you can relax and, say, watch football or play mind games on the third floor of the restaurant.

Today was a very busy and interesting day, so worth heading back to the hotel to rest and gather strength for tomorrow!
