About St. Petersburg
 What makes it Russian at heart is the overwhelming scale and opulence of its palaces. With 3 million items on exhibit you couldnt get through the Hermitage in a year! You may also explore more dazzling palaces like Petrovorets, Pushkin and Pavlovsk, shop in the newly opened designer stores along busy Nevsky Prospekt, shiver at the looming fortress of Peter and Paul and wonder at immense quantities of gold, polished marbles and precious gems lavished on St. Isaacs Cathedral.
St. Petersburg Attractions
While you're in St. Petersburg, take time to explore the Hermitage Museum. This museum is one of the world's greatest treasures and features more than 3 million exhibits. And that doesn't include the impressive building itself or its beautiful furnishings.
St. Petersburg Activities
- Explore the sights of St. Petersburg, including Peter and Paul Fortress, birthplace of modern St. Petersburg; St. Isaac Cathedral, the world's largest domed cathedral; and Palace Square, the rallying point of the 1917 Russian Revolution
- Visit Peterhof, the summer home of Peter the Great. Built under the supervision of the French architect Alexandre Le Blond, this town of palaces, fountains and parks rivals the great palaces of Versailles

About Kizhi
 Situated at the north end of Lake Onega, Kizhi Island is home to the famed Open Air Museum of Architecture. Dozens of buildings, including wooden houses, windmills and two 18th-century wooden churches, portray the region's unusual and visionary architecture. Kizhi's most famous building is the three-tiered, fairy tale-like Transfiguration Church, dating from 1714. With its 22 domes, it rivals the splendor of St. Basil's Cathedral in Moscow. Within the same walled compound, see the 1862 octagonal bell tower and the Church of Intercession, built in 1764 without the use of a single nail.

About Yaroslavl
 Stretching for 18 miles along both banks of the Volga amidst a region of forests, Yaroslavl was founded in 1010 by Prince Yaroslav the Wise of Kiev. During the next several centuries, Yaroslavl prospered as a trading port and textile-manufacturing center.
Yaroslavl Attractions
Many buildings and architectural monuments of Yaroslavl's colorful past highlight the city including the Governor's Palace, the magnificent 13th-century Spassky Monastery, a group of majestic 17th century cathedrals, and the Church of Elijah the Prophet situated in the central square. The artistry inside the church, including the frescoes on the walls and ornate vaulting create a museum-like atmosphere.

About Uglich

Other architectural monuments include the Kremlin Palace, Cathedral of the Resurrection, and St. John's Church.
Uglich Attractions
- The approach to Uglich is one of the most memorable sights of a cruise along the Volga.

About Moscow
 Moscow's origins as a symbol of Russian spiritual and political power go back more than 850 years, so it's no surprise that today the city is the barometer and nucleus of the changes sweeping through Russia. Its vitality and chaos are a direct result of the collapse of communism and the efforts of its citizens to reinvent their lives. Nowhere are Russia's contrasts more apparent than here - ancient monasteries and ultra-modern monoliths stand side by side, and New Russian millionaires and poverty-stricken pensioners walk the same streets. The populace now prefer impromptu street markets to the huge state department stores, and churches which were destroyed or abandoned during the Soviet era are being lovingly restored. But the real flavour of this city is in its small nooks and crannies, each of them unique.
Moscow Activities
- At Moscow's heart is the Kremlin, and within the Kremlin is the Armory Palace, the country's richest and oldest museum, housing a staggering collection of treasures including the famed Faberge eggs.
- Explore Red Square and magnificent St. Basil's Cathedral.
- Wander through Arbat Street, or ride the world-famous Metro.
