Russia
The vast nation of Russia is not only the largest country in the world, it’s also been one of the most mysterious for decades. It’s a land with an incredibly rich cultural heritage and tradition that has been hidden from view for many years.
Like an early spring flower coming into bloom after winter, Russia is bursting with life, energy and color. The great cities of Moscow and St Petersburg are proudly showing off their wealth of history to the world. There are over a thousand years of art and architecture waiting to be discovered, mixed with a contemporary buzz and excitement that has to be experienced rather than described.
This treasure trove of forests, lakes, palaces and cathedrals is becoming massively popular with tourists from across the globe. The gray, monolithic buildings of the mid-twentieth century are becoming as popular with visitors as the colorful domes of St Basil’s or the imperial splendor of St Petersburg, as every facet of the nation’s incredible past is opening up for inspection and enjoyment.
