An exhibition first, the old town after lunch

Start at the Manege entrance on Nekrasova Street. After the exhibition, follow Pochtovaya Street past the old timber houses towards Gorodok.

  1. Zvenigorod Gorodok

    See the earthworks and Assumption Cathedral. The hill involves a climb; grippy shoes help after rain.
