Moving on! On your way - Kostroma, a pearl city on the bank of the Volga. Of the many beautiful white stone buildings and gilded domes that adorn this city, the greatest interest is Ipatiev Monastery - "the cradle of Russian statehood". Then the picturesque road will take you to the fairytale town Ples, located on the bank of the Volga River. Then we go to Suzdal, a real museum city with original architecture.
