If you do not have time to visit the entire Golden Ring of Russia, we recommend you spend at least a day on a trip to Sergiev Posad, just 1.5 hours from Moscow.
Sergiev Posad was founded at the end of the nineteenth century by one of the most loved Russian Orthodox saints, Sergey Radonezh, and has grown to become the capital of Orthodox Christianity
Today Sergiev Posad includes over 40 remarkable monuments of both historical and spiritual significance.
Besides, it is simply so beautiful here!
