Volga

Travel Guide

This is one part of the Nizhny Novgorod Kremlin. A 16th-century fortress in one of the biggest cities in Russia. It's also another of my favorite sites in this country. Nizhny Novgorod is a very beautiful city, with many great churches. But this Kremlin really stands out. It was built between 1508-1515 and in 1949 underwent a restoration. You could spend a few hours here just walking and taking pictures :).
