Russia is a country famous for the saying (a riddle wrapped in a mystery and inside of it another puzzle can be seen). People looking from outside of Russia will have only obscure ideas more than ground realities. The glories of old Russia and the dowdy Legacies of Soviet Russia are interesting to know indeed. It is a land of snow and the winters are deadly and well said that both January and February are the most powerful Military generals of Russia. Like the historic saying (the sun never sets in the British Empire) it is also said (the mid summer never sets in Russia) People are generally merciful and magnanimous because they love to suffer during the biting cold season.
Dangerous Regions
Travelers are even now given caution words not to visit some areas; Chechnya, Dagestan, and Ingushetia are not fit for first time tourists as they are conflict regions. The Russian authorities too warn the travelers against the possibilities of attacks. In spite of it, people visit such places as they exercise an irresistible fascination for them.
Trans-Siberian Railway
If traveling is equaled with romance, the best for it is Trans-Siberian Railway and the visit is coupled with the spirit of adventure or trotting on distant lands. Surely at the end of the journey he will feel sorry for having left that place. The train journey takes altogether 72 hours the longest train journey of the world. In the Siberian desert area the Journey once made will be more memorable
Red Square
Red Square is the political heart of Russia One can see there the most beautiful domes of St Basil?s Cathedral and Lenin?s Mausoleum The sense of history is revealed here and the traveler can go back to the times of October Revolution The military parade is held here to exhibit the world the strength of the country.
Lake Baikal
Baikal is the world?s oldest fresh water lake; it is also the deepest lake as well as the biggest one in the world. Water is lapping on the shore as clear as crystal. If one is blessed as a traveler to that place, he will eat smoked fish with the Russian beer; he will be also immensely pleased with these two things while enjoying the trip
St. Petersburg :
The city is known for its elegance and stateliness; fairy tales can speak different matter of different age. There too many canals which speak in low voice about the famous characters of epochs; it is a living monument narrating the history of the past Going back to 300 years as the History of the country is turbulent.
Vladivostok
A jolly ride in the ferry near the harbor is of immense satisfaction. As the language is not usual thing to be spoken if a traveler learns just 100 Russian words as expected he will conclude that his travel is successful
Mamaev Kurgan
Mamaev Kurgan is another well known place in Russia as Hill 102 at the time of the battle of Stalingrad. The fighting went on for four months and a visit to this place will kindle the historic sensational feelings. Any traveler will be struck with homage to be paid to those who gave their life during the bloody battle; now the area is covered with fortifications, statues, and memorials.
How to survive during the cold season:
To keep warmth throughout the winter season is indeed a task for even local people. One way to overcome the coldness is to wear fur coats; overcoat; in addition to hats, leg shawls serve the purpose. From St Petersburg to the Capital Moscow the travel in metro system is worthwhile and inspiring. A number of stations to pass by are infact a source of great pleasure. On the way one can see so many bars and restaurants to take drinks the best way to combat with the biting cold, A piglet stuffed with buckwheat is enough for edible while enjoying the sight; borscht soup will be served to feel one is relaxed from the coldness.
The other Russian heritage sites:
Some more Russian sites are to be included here for more interesting information for those who intend to go and see the sites. The Pulkovo Space Observatory is the right place for exploring the Universe. It is 19 kilo meters from St. Petersburg. One can see the world?s largest 38cm refractor that the Russians feel proud of it. Uvs Nuur is another Heritage site which forms two important parts one is lake and another is basin. It is supposed to be the biggest lake in Mongolia. Golden Mountains of Altais are worth to make a visit. The location itself is the most enchanting because four countries come together, namely China, Russia, Mongolia, and Kazaksthan. The site is famous for the preservation of subalpine vegetation and mixed forests including steppies and alpines.
Wrangel Island is noted for its polar bear being haven for it well situated in the Arctic Ocean. Sikhote-Alin is the meteriote site and it runs all the way to the Sea of Japan. Its peaks height is about 1933 meters; it is the most extraordinary temperate Zone, creating temperate forests there. Curonian Spit is a sand dune peninsula; it is 98kilo meters long, separating Curonian lagoon. Sight seeing is a source of delight that one must go there to accept the fact. Shlisselburg is another remarkable heritage site. The fortress is an additional charm to be added to it. It is 45 kilo meters from the city of St. Petersburg. The former name of the site is Petrokrepost Virgin Komi Forest is another vital heritage site. It is one of the largest boreal virgin forests in Europe; the area is noted for its rivers, lakes and peat bogs. The volcanoes of Kamchatka create good impression in the mind of onlookers who are compelled to come again to the site; there are twelve volcanoes to be a strange factor in Russia.
Thus Russia as we have seen from this information is a riddle wrapped place. If we are to unravel this riddle then we need to be there in Russia to do it and to get to know the country better.
