Golden Ring: Vladimir, Suzdal

Vladimir — Suzdal. 2 days. From 120$ per traveller. High up on Vladimir's slope above the Klyazma River sits the solemnly majestic Assumption Cathedral, built to announce Vladimir's claim as capital of Rus. These days, Vladimir — 178km east of Moscow — feels more like a modern, provincial town than an ancient capital. Nonetheless, the grandeur of medieval Vladimir shines through the commotion of this busy, industrial town. Exquisite examples of Russia's most formative architecture, along with some entertaining museums, make Vladimir one of the jewels in the Golden Ring.We would recommend this Golden Ring tour for those who keen of visiting small chamber places which are less crowded than other more popular sites.
