The River Volga is one of nature’s wonders that deserve to be taken into account when here. It represents what Ganges represents for the Indians, what the Nile represents for the Egyptians and what Siena is for the French people. The river is one of the biggest water of the world and one of the classic symbols of Russia. It brings out the Russian beliefs such as the freedom along with the rebel, imposing and harsh spirit of the people living here. Near Volga, one can see the Astrakhan city, an interesting destination especially for the architecture lovers. This city is as well a connection point of Russia and Iran.
Novgorod is one of the oldest cities in Russia, despite of the meaning of its name.

This was and is till nowadays the most influential bishopric from the Russian Orthodox Church.
