Golden Ring is the name for a popular tourist route with a network of ancient towns north-east of Moscow. This Golden Ring tour will take you on a quest for unique architectural constructions dating back to the 12-17th centuries. During this short detour from Moscow, you will discover the age-old allure of Russia. Travel from the capital to the countryside, where golden spires and the onion-shaped domes of colourful monasteries dot the horizon. Explore the historic and enchanting towns of Suzdal, Vladimir and Sergiev Posad and learn more about Russian history, culture and traditions.
Touring the Golden Ring, a string of medieval towns northeast of Moscow is like settling into the comforting arms of Mother Russia: it's a bucolic realm of whitewashed churches with golden onion domes, rippling meadows blanketed with flowers, and samovars bubbling away in colourful gingerbread cottages. In contrast to Moscow's cosmopolitan chaos, these ancient towns are a cultural salve for the Slavic soul: you'll find the spiritual heart of the Orthodox Church here, as well as historic architecture, religious art, traditional cooking and time-honoured handicrafts. Centuries ago this was the power core of eastern Kyivan Rus, but it declined as Moscow took political centre stage. Largely untouched by Soviet industrialisation, it now attracts flocks of Russian and international tourists searching for a lost idyll.Travel insurance, visa, optional excursions, individual transfers, tips
