Vladimir
It’s surrounded by the river loop so that during spring, it’s not flooded. The
graceful monumental cathedrals - “The Church of the Intercession on the Nerl”,
“The White Stone Cathedral” are some of the ancient landmarks of Vladimir…
The most famous landmarks of them is the Golden Gate, which leads one into the
old town. “The Museum of Crystal and Lacquer Miniatures” displays some
traditional art works and souvenirs. And yes, people love to gorge on Russian
crepes, Blini and other delicacies from the museum café called Blinnaya Izba. But
people also love to see the “Gingerbread Museum”, where the café is located.
