Natural Beauties and Small Cities
The second day of the trip you will start at the border between Estonia and Russia, on the bank of the Narva River. On both sides of the river there are two important historical fortresses - Narva and Ivangorod. They are separated by an arrow's flight distance, only 130 m.
