The Vladimir region has a huge potential for attracting tourists .On the vast territory of the region, among untouched nature, a lot of unique architectural monuments are scattered .Basically these are former noblemen's estates, Orthodox cathedrals and monasteries, historical and local history museums, as well as cozy ancient towns, each with its own individuality .Without acquaintance with the sights of the Vladimir region, no route of the Golden Ring of Russia can be carried out .It is interesting that the very idea to organize this famous route now originated in the Vladimir region, in Suzdal .
The main tourist center of the region is the ancient city of Vladimir, whose rich historical past is witnessed by beautiful monuments, most of them are real masterpieces .The Golden Gate, the Assumption Cathedral, the Dmitrievsky Cathedral, the Nativity Monastery, the Nikitskaya Church, the St. Nicholas Church, the Meshcheryagin House, the Church, the Archangel Michael Church, the provincial real school, the Red Cross Society Hospital, the Vladimirsky Tsentral prison - and this is far from being all.Agree, the number of sights of Vladimir will impress even a lot of the traveler who has seen .
Without an acquaintance with the sights of the Vladimir region, no route of the Golden Ring of Russia can do.
Vladimir is not far behind in popularity among tourists and his no less ancient neighbor is the glorious Suzdal. Annually it takes up to a million guests. Once Suzdal was the capital of a large principality, today it is a quiet provincial town with a colorful central square decorated with monuments of church architecture.
A special gastronomic highlight of Suzdal was his crown drink, the invention of local cooks - Suzdal mead.
The city of Murom with a thousand-year history is the birthplace of the legendary hero Ilya Muromets, the capital of the family holiday, love and fidelity, the center of gravity of the newlyweds dreaming of a happy family life. And still here is a real fairy tale for fans of church architecture: for the 120,000-strong city in Murom, there are amazingly many ancient temples and monasteries.
The tourist attraction of the city with the poetic name Gus-Khrustalny is associated with the famous Gusev crystal, which, however, is now very rare. Despite the fact that the city is not in its best form, for tourists it is still seductive. Take a stroll along the picturesque promenade, take a look at the Crystal Museum, enjoy a rest on the City Lake, admire the ancient buildings and historical buildings, and you will not be disappointed!
Another pearl of the Vladimir region is a small provincial, but very atmospheric town of Yuryev-Polsky. He can boast of the same centuries-old history as his illustrious neighbors, while appreciably inferior to them in size. The Mikhailo-Arkhangelsk Monastery and the St. George's Cathedral are part of the gold fund of ancient Russian architecture.
Yuryev-Polsky adorns many other beautiful churches and monasteries, and walks through quiet streets will awaken the most touching feelings in you.
Other notable culturally populated areas of the Vladimir region are Gorokhovets, Pokrov, Petushki, Aleksandrov, Kirzhach, Kovrov. In each of these original cities, there is an amazing atmosphere of antiquity, captivating every visitor.
