Getting to know Vyborg
A full day in the atmospheric Vyborg awaits us. We'll treat ourselves to a legendary pretzel at the Ginger Cat's house, dress up in knight's armour at the Vyborg Castle, explore the mysterious Monrepo Park. For dessert, we'll take a walk along the seafront and a photo at sunset near Viking drakkars.

Well, we're in Vyborg! Let's start with a tasting of the pretzel of the same name, the recipe for which has come down to us from the Franciscan monks themselves.
We are going to visit a cozy souvenir shop of local craftsmen and café with its ginger owner - cat Kuzma Voldemarovich, who will probably even accompany us to a cup of coffee.

Here it is, the main attraction of the city - the castle, founded by the Swedes in the XIII century. A curious fact: it's the only castle on the water in Russia! In addition, it is also completely preserved, despite numerous sieges.

Таверна

It's a good time to eat in an atmospheric tavern, as befits a true hungry knight.
The place is very authentic indeed, from the food on offer to the burning candles all around and the waiters in period costume.
Be prepared for the fact that the restaurant is popular and you may have to wait in line for a bit, but the cuisine and atmosphere of the place will make up for these small inconveniences.

Vyborg Castle in presets is especially good. We will see it for ourselves by walking along the quay and looking at it from a new perspective.
Let's stop at the Viking drakkars - the 24-meter ships that got Vyborg after the filming of "And on the rocks grow trees", and hurry up to the restaurant.

We deserve a hearty dinner. That's exactly what they specialize in here. The emphasis on meat dishes on the menu, as you can guess from the name.
