Welcome to the Capital of Sunsets!

Nizhny Novgorod is a majestic city at the confluence of two rivers, which attracts tourists with its unique views, endless expanses of water, and a unique combination of history and modernity. Having visited it once, you will lose your heart to it!

We recommend that you visit the ancient Kremlin and the famous Nizhny Novgorod Fair, stroll along the cobbled streets with a centuries-old history, the local Arbat pedestrian street Bolshaya Pokrovskaya, get acquainted with the history of the city and see the most striking sights from the window of a double-decker city-sightseeing tour bus. Taste Volga cuisine and other delicacies in one of the many restaurants on the main gastronomic street of the city, Rozhdestvenskaya, take a ride on the longest cableway in Europe, look into the renovated “Switzerland” Park, leisurely stroll along the spacious embankments, where you can see unique sunsets over the Oka and the Volga.
We have created for you a selection of the most interesting city tours, where you will get a lot of positive emotions and take with you vivid impressions and gorgeous photos as a souvenir.

Nizhny Novgorod Kremlin

Nizhny Novgorod was founded in 1221 by Prince Yuri Vsevolodovich of Vladimir and the first building he erected for protection from the enemies was “detinets” — a wooden fortress surrounded by a rampart.

Chkalov Staircase

The giant stone figure eight, which can be seen even from space, is the Chkalov Staircase, named after the famous pilot Valery Chkalov.

Park “Switzerland”

The history of the park begins in the 1880s, when amateur botanists V.I. Raevsky and I.M. Shvetsov first showed interest in the vegetation on the right bank of the city.

Europe’s longest cableway

The Nizhny Novgorod cableway is the only cableway in Russia and Europe with a span of 861.21 m over the water surface — this is a record!

Nizhnevolzhskaya embankment

The length of Nizhnevolzhskaya embankment is 3 km, it is one of the longest streets in the city. Until the 18th century, only wooden houses of merchants and artisans were located there.

Nizhny Novgorod Fair

“Petersburg is the head, Moscow is the heart, and Nizhny Novgorod is the pocket of Russia” — this is what they said about the city on the Volga, because it was the place to which the largest fair of the Volga region was moved from the Makaryevsky Monastery in 1817.

Spit of the Oka and the Volga

Nizhny Novgorod Spit is the confluence of the two great Russian rivers: Oka and Volga. For a long time it was not a tourist destination, since cargo ships were located there.
