N.A. Rimsky-Korsakov Memorial Museum Reserve
I suggest that you take your time exploring Veliky Novgorod, but go to the estate where Nikolai Andreyevich Rimsky-Korsakov finished his famous opera The Golden Cockerel, where he spent the last moments of his life. On the way to the estate we will see the St. John the Theologian Cheremenets Monastery and the Zapolye estate.

Череменецкий мужской монастырь
On the way to Veliky Novgorod there is another miracle of Russian architecture - the St. John the Theologian Cheremenets Monastery. According to legend, it was founded in the second half of the XV century. The monastery is located on the shore of the picturesque Lake Cheremets. Its appearance is associated with a legend that a huge icon of the Holy Apostle and Evangelist John the Theologian appeared here to a local peasant.
