    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. Then you will visit the manor of Nicholas Roerich in Izvara - a unique complex of monuments of nature, archaeology, architecture, history and culture. This day will not pass without a natural park in the area of Duderhof Heights and the nearby Duderhof Lake, which you will visit on the second section of the road.
