A captivating all-day long trip to Novgorod town is a great chance to know better the Russian culture and architecture. Early in the morning in a comfortable car or a mini-bus you’ll leave your hotel to rush towards the magnificent Old Russian monuments, Cathedrals and architectonical ensembles. Novgorod is one of the most ancient Russian towns where the Russian State and the Russian written language were formed. Here already in the XII century the St. Jury Monastery that is still functional, was constructed, and later – the Kremlin and the famous St. Sophia Cathedral – the symbol of Orthodox Russia. The Kremlin was the heart of the town and the center of its political and cultural life: the popular assembly and the election of the “posadnic” were held here, chronicles and books were written here. The Kremlin walls protected the St. Sophia Cathedral and the residence of the sovereign of Novgorod. Accompanied by our professional guide you’ll visit the museum of wooden architecture at the open air “Viatoslavitsi”, walk along the old streets of the town, see the Old Russian Cathedrals from inside, know the secrets of Orthodox divine services and feel the spirit of a holy place.
