Russia is one of the largest countries in the world. Its terrain includes dense forests and mountains as well as rolling hills and Siberia’s barren land. The winters are frigid although summers are quite pleasant. This diversity attracts travelers eager to explore what this huge place has to offer them. Moscow, the capital, is an ideal city to explore the contrasts in Russia as new and old coexist side by side. One of its most famous sites is St. Basil’s where some of Russia’s past leaders dictated their power. St. Petersburg is also a great city and home to the Summer Garden and the Hermitage, which is an amazing art gallery. The food is wholesome and satisfying. Try a bowl of borsht or a hot plate of vareniki – your tummy will thank you. The Russian alphabet is a bit hard to understand so it is wise to recognize a few key words before you arrive.
