However, not only museums and old buildings attract Russians, but also ample opportunities for entertainment, as well as the absence of a language barrier, since the overwhelming majority of service workers, as well as ordinary residents, speak Russian.

You have had a difficult week at work and are you looking for where to fly for the weekend to escape from your routine? Let's pick the options together - since there are more than enough of them, even if you do not have a visa. After spending a couple of hours on the flight, you will change the environment and in a couple of days you will have a good rest and get a boost of vivacity.

Naturally, first of all we are interested in the directions where you can fly on weekends without a visa. Dealing with visa issues for 1–2 days off is not the most rational pastime. Moreover, the desire to escape somewhere on the weekend often arises spontaneously and there is simply no time left for formalities - to have time to buy tickets and book a hotel.

Traveling in Russia

In our country there is a huge number of cities and regions that are famous for their history, architectural monuments, cultural heritage, natural beauty, entertainment for children and adults. Those who have never been to the capital and are looking for where to fly for the weekend should first of all visit Moscow. The Kremlin, Red Square, Tretyakov Gallery - must be on the list of visited places.

St. Petersburg is waiting for guests who want to touch the history, culture and art of the country - the Hermitage, the Kunstkamera, Peter and Paul Square, Kazan Cathedral, Peterhof, the cruiser Aurora, etc. In every large city there is something that will "hook" and fall in love with itself - Yekaterinburg, Nizhny Novgorod, Kaliningrad, Vladivostok, Kazan and many others. If, on the contrary, you want to take a break from the hustle and bustle of megacities, then choose smaller cities. In the same Suzdal, Kostroma, Tula, Veliky Novgorod and many others, you will find a lot of new impressions.

For those who want unity with nature, even if only for a couple of days, we recommend the following places:

• Karelia, with its unique and untouched nature;
• World famous lakes - Baikal, Seliger, Baskunchak, etc .;
• Lena Pillars in Yakutia;
• Valley of Geysers in Kamchatka;
• Curonian Spit in the Kaliningrad region;
• Mountains of the Caucasus and Altai;
• Weathering pillars in the Komi Republic.

If you are looking for where to fly on the weekend from Moscow to escape from the bustle of the metropolis, then you will hardly find a better option.

Those who wish to plunge into the sea, lie on the beach for a day and return home with renewed vigor are the Black and Sea of \u200b\u200bAzov... Crimea, Sochi, Adler, Gelendzhik, Yeysk - you can fly to any resort in a couple of hours.

Nearest neighbors

If the question arises in your head about where to fly for the weekend inexpensively without a visa and at the same time you definitely want to go abroad, then consider the option with neighboring states. The countries of the former USSR and the current CIS are ready to offer a lot of interesting things. Especially if you have not been there before:

• Belarus - attracts guests with historical monuments (Brest Fortress, Castle Complex "Mir", Nesvizh Palace of the Radziwills), nature (Belovezhskaya Pushcha, Braslav Lakes, National park "Pripyatsky"), modern architecture and ecotourism;
• Kazakhstan - you will surely be amazed by the beauty of Astana with its futuristic architecture, historical monuments, gorgeous lakes Issyk and Balkhash;
• Uzbekistan - with its many mausoleums and mosques, noisy markets and nature reserves... Naturally, you will taste real pilaf and many other delicious local cuisine;
• Georgia - where you will stroll through ancient Adjara, the unique Batumi and enjoy the hospitality of local residents.

And then there are Armenia, Azerbaijan, Kyrgyzstan, Moldova and other countries, in each of which you will find your own flavor.

Far abroad

For those who have chosen a European destination in search of an answer to the question of where to fly for the weekend inexpensively and without a visa, there will not be so many options. At the moment, "visa-free" is possible only in:

• Turkey;
• Serbia;
• Macedonia;
• Croatia;
• Montenegro;
• Bosnia and Herzegovina.

For a good weekend at sea, this will be enough. However, most often trips for a couple of days are not chosen for a beach holiday. Walk around the same Zagreb or Skopje, or organize a shopping tour to Istanbul. Of course, you can fly to more distant countries - visa-free space or simplified entry from Russia with many states. But other options are for longer travel.

There are a lot of options for where to fly for the weekend, especially from Moscow. To do this inexpensively, use promotional offers from air carriers, tour operators and various services. This way you will get a double pleasure - from the trip and from the money saved.

Are you going to rest? Look closer. It's time to see Russia with your own eyes.

The idea for the article was suggested by friends from Airbnb... This is a service that allows you to rent rooms and entire apartments, resting according to their program... Every city in the world becomes your home, where you can take guests, behave as your heart desires and plunge into local flavorwithout looking back at the sterile-boring hotel walls.

We'll see, where to have to go.

1. Sochi

Why here: the capital of the Olympic Games.

How to get there: by plane to the airport in Adler, or by train.

What to see: eyes run up! Sochi was the capital of the Winter Olympics, and therefore it was transformed almost beyond recognition. The main advice to all travelers: to see all the fun, go not to Sochi, but to Adler. It is there that the imposing and spacious Olympic Park is located, and it is there that the short railway route to mountain range Roses Khutor.

The weather in Adler is pleasant, the beach is pebbly - if you have time before October, you can still swim. Prices are moderate, but tasty food is not easy. My advice to those who do not want to take risks - restaurant La Luna in the back of the city, almost on the very edge of the coast. Multi-storey, modern - and delicious. As a rule, you do not need to order a table. While you walk back and forth pay attention to infrastructure: whatever you say, huge money has been invested, and this is more often it is seenthan not.

It is not necessary to buy souvenirs in the Olympic Park: in Adler you will find the same for less money, especially in one inconspicuous store, whose address I will tell everyone. If you like to relax outdoors, and not in hotels and SPA-salons, do not stay in hotels around the park: boredom is death, because the entire park can be seen in one day. You have to go to Adler itself, that's for sure.

well and Rosa Khutor... beauty and nothing more. It is strictly necessary to go, but you need to take somewhere 5-7 thousand per person with you for lifts, food and so on.

Where to stay: offer apartment for a couple in the very center of Adler for 2484 rubles / day.

One-room apartment in a new building. Adler center, convenient transport accessibility. Easy and quick access to Krasnaya Polyana and Sochi. Newly renovated, new appliances, dishwasher and washing machine, satellite TV, Wi-Fi, large dressing room, air conditioning. Stylish, profitable and convenient. While free ...

2. Yekaterinburg

Why here: industrial colossus of Russia.

How to get there: by plane to the airport.

What to see: if anything, this is the fourth city in the Russian Federation in terms of population, the third in the number of billionaires per capita and diplomatic missions. And Yekaterinburg also has its own metro and really interesting museums about industrial and economic history. Whatever you say, really successful and modern city, embodying the transformation of the country over the past few generations.

Especially for people like us, in Yekaterinburg we made a special tourist route... Look at your feet in the city center and you will see a red line on one of the pedestrian paths. Just walk along it and look around: you will find everything that every guest should see. Be sure to take the metro, which sprawls across 10 well-preserved and modernized stations.

The city cannot be called old-fashioned: there is where to eat, and there is where to decently relax. No wonder high-rise buildings and skyscrapers are being actively built in the center. And when you get tired of enjoying urbanism, take a look at the museums of geology and archeology, and then go on an excursion to the museum military equipment Outside the city. There is also a Chekist Town near Yekaterinburg - connoisseurs of the history of Tsarist Russia will appreciate the visit.

Where to stay: we offer a studio apartment for two in the center of Yekaterinburg for 1961 rubles per day.

Center. One-room business class apartment with European-quality renovation. Free high speed internet Wi-Fi. All the amenities and comfort of your own home. Low price and excellent feedback from guests.

3. Kazan

Why here: an unlikely East Asian corner.

How to get there: by plane or by train.

What to see: in the capital of the republic of Tatarstan, Eastern and Russian traditions have been mixed. Incredibly popular tourist destination, a mesmerizing combination of two cultures. Modern business has transformed the city, adding a touch of Moscow to it, but has not affected the centuries-old beauty. It is here that the largest IT park is located - which is logical, because according to numerous studies, it is in Kazan that it is most favorable to conduct any business. Even better than the two capitals of the country!

A tourist should immediately go to the city center... Be sure to take a look at the local Kremlin. If anything, it is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Museums, mosques and just interesting sights - everything is located within walking distance from each other and is concentrated practically in one place. Set aside a day for pure walks. On the way you will see a mass shopping centers and shops: this is also a feature of the city.

If you want something especially active, go to the Riviera hotel and water park or to the Kazan ski and sports complex. The latter is especially true if you are reading these lines in autumn or winter. The city also has its own metro. For those who desire culture, welcome to one of the dozens of museums and theaters. Well, you must eat something, and something from the local cuisine. They know how to cook here, that's for sure!

Where to stay: offer apartment in the center of Kazan for a couple , 2942 rubles per day.

Double apartment with a small hotel kitchen. Located near the Riviera water park. The balcony offers a stunning view of the water area of \u200b\u200bthe Kazanka River, the historical center of Kazan and the Kazan Kremlin. There is everything you need for guests of the city.

4. St. Petersburg

Why here: cultural capital, curbs.

How to get there: by plane or by train.

What to see: it's a shame to ask such a question in this city. Wherever you look - everything needs to be watched! Place, where russian culture comes alivewhere practically every corner, every square meter is immortalized in history, literature or cinema.

We take an umbrella with us and go straight to the subway. And from there - right on Palace Square... We breathed in the scale - and straight from there, on foot, we walk along the cobbled streets to the very center of the city. Hundreds of museums flicker: palace of Peter I, museum of urban sculpture, contemporary art Erarta, state The Russian Museum... the list is endless.

One day - and no less - will need to be devoted conquering the Hermitage... In the morning, set yourself the right tone: do not rush, do not plan anything, calmly get to the legendary, huge museum. Wait in lines for 30 minutes, and then ... walk. For hours. Pictures, sculptures, whole epochs slowly replace each other, seem simply endless. Someone returns there the next day, and someone never again ... but once everyone has to go there.

Set off for a walk along the canals, while more or less warm. Just pack some warmer things and choose a decent boat - preferably with a bar, tea and coffee. See bridges open from the water and continue the day at one of the thousands of nightclubs. And in the morning again on a hike. Kronstadt do not forget.

Where to stay: offer apartment in St. Petersburg for two with a chic finish for 2942 rubles / day.

High quality finishes. Stylish interior, furniture from the leading European manufacturer Hanak. Double bed with lifting mechanism and storage space. Work desk and ergonomic chair. Comfortable bathroom, Wi-Fi, TV. Kitchen equipped with all necessary household appliances. It looks just gorgeous!

5. Yaroslavl

Why here: literary legend.

How to get there: by plane or by train, the latter is even better (3 hours on the way).

What to see: you don't know, but it is here that the oldest theater in Russia is located - academic Drama Theater. F. Volkova. The oldest jazz festival in the country, Jazz over the Volga, is also held here. And the city itself is one of the oldest among the more or less large: it was founded back in 1010. I.e Yaroslavl is over 1000 years old... THOUSAND, Karl!

Such a story, well, cannot be hidden by any urbanization. Today Yaroslavl is not a millionaire, but this makes it even more interesting. It is here that you should come in a company with knowledgeable people, especially those who are experts in literature. There are so many works that have mentioned these places. Almost every home in historic center its own story, which you can literally touch.

You need to go here for just a few days, this is enough to see everything. Spend at a minimum: accommodation, food and entertainment will cost less than in Kazan. The place is intended for philologists looking for inner harmony and just fresh impressions away from the noise major cities... Yaroslavl is also included in the famous route "Golden Ring" and is part of the list of objects world heritage UNESCO.

Where to stay: offer studio apartment for a couple and boyfriend / girlfriend in the center of Yaroslavl for 1635 rubles / day.

6. Suzdal

Why here: magic architecture of legendary Russia.

How to get there: first to Vladimir by train / train, then by taxi to Suzdal (about 500 rubles).

What to see: not just old, but very old city... The first mentions of him as settlement generally dated 999 in the great "Tale of Bygone Years":

Vastasha volsvi in \u200b\u200bJudged ...

Having survived the uprising of the Magi, the Volga Bulgars, the siege of the Poles, the raids of the Crimean Tatars, the epidemic and the brutal Soviet regime, Suzdal turned into a city of monasteries and churches... There are simply a great many of them, all different, built at different times and for various reasons. The oldest remained intact wooden churches and buildings.

People come here to see temples and nature. And plunge into the antiquity of that very Russia. To do this, you need to visit the museum "Shchurovo settlement"where buildings from the times of Yuri Dolgoruky have been preserved and where something interesting and informative is regularly held. Continuing the unspoken topic of this collection - it also has its own Kremlinbeing the oldest building in the town.

Rest here charges with a positive mood, makes it akin to the history of the country and the power of the beautiful Russian nature. The jungle of the city - down with!

7. Vladivostok

Why here: a harsh, special port city.

How to get there: planes, trains, even ships :)

What to see: in port city life is in full swing around the clock. As one of the key links in the trade and transport routes of Russia, Vladivostok is shrouded in the influence of nearby Asian countries: Japan, Korea and, of course, China. The latter wants to build railway tracks here - the city's contribution to the work of the invisible transport and cargo system of the world is so high.

Right-hand drive cars rule the roads here. On one of them, be sure to head to the bridge connecting Vladivostok with russian island - huge, large-scale, beautiful, like the Golden Gate in San Francisco. Oh yes, there is an analogue here, that's what it's called: "Golden Bridge" :) More recently, you can't walk on it, but nobody canceled the taxi. Beauty and light engineering "porn" for real men!

Look at Lighthouse Egersheld, one of the oldest lighthouses Of the Far East, the main landmark at the entrance to the port. Bay "Golden Horn", Voroshilov battery, embankment and frigates Pallas and Hope (if you find it). You can even turn their steering wheel :) There is also a funicular, but in mid-August it was closed without warning - maybe at the time of your arrival everything will be repaired, for now we just warn you.

8. Nizhny Novgorod

Why here: old Kremlin, ancient architecture.

How to get there: by plane or by train.

What to see: oh you look again Kremlin :) What can you do, our country is big, we had to somehow defend ourselves from raids. IN Nizhny Novgorod The Kremlin has become a real entertainment Center: to the people here in summer time quite a lot, and the condition of the building itself commands respect for the restorers.

Must visit Pechora Monastery, which has absorbed the history of Nizhny Novgorod. By the way, have you ever seen a real peasant hut? Unlikely. One of these can (and should) be watched live in the open museum of Architecture and Life of the Peoples of the Volga Region.

We start moving from Bolshaya Pokrovskaya Street, where in the old days the entrance to the common people was ordered. Feeling like a nobleman and passing the Kremlin, go down to the embankment. If you want to warm up, go up the Chkalovskaya stairs... Take a selfie with the monument to Minin and Pozharsky, which, although it exists in Moscow, was originally created specifically for Nizhny. Recreation is relatively inexpensive.

9. Baikal

Why here: the same lake in the picture, now live.

How to get there: by train or plane to Irkutsk.

What to see: lake guys. The same thing. Blue, beautiful.

They all talk and know about Baikal. We just didn't see him. And you see... Take a photo. You will restoutdoors. All the same blue pearl of Russia.

I don't think it's necessary to repeat it twice. Fascinating, will have a story to tell.

10.Moscow

Why here: because, e-mine.

How to get there: by plane, by train, whatever.

What to see: any resident of Russia should visit Moscow at least once and look at it. This is an impression that will be remembered for a lifetime and will be smeared only if you move there to spite all the "local" :)

Huge scale, endless story, bottomless cultural heritage, endless possibilities and simply the best entertainment in Russia. Moscow is a separate country, as if self-sufficient and clearly living by its own rules and in a different rhythm. People come here to earn and spend, look at someone else's and create their own.

See Moscow City, "Manezhku", Sparrow Hills and MSU, Grand Theatre, Tretyakov gallery, Gorky Park (and dozens of other gorgeous parks), Ostankino, Poklonnaya mountain, Tsaritsyno, GUM and TSUM, Olympic and naturally Kremlin - a to-do list every inhabitant of the country is born with. It's time to do it already. Even if you are the same "native Muscovite";)

Where to stay: option apartments for two in the center of Moscow for only 2681 rubles per day.

Newly renovated apartment within walking distance of the Moscow Kremlin. Near the Cathedral of Christ the Savior. The nearest metro stations - Kropotkinskaya, Lenin Library - 2 minutes walk. The apartment is equipped with everything you need for comfort. There is Wi-Fi. Good feedback.

Russia - generoussoul! While resting with us, you should not forget about national characteristics... AND tricks... Including those that strive to leave you without pants.

1. Using Airbnb for booking apartments and rooms, you insure yourself against many difficultiesfaced by tenants of premises from "private traders". The service acts as a guarantor of your rest and in case of problems it will help to return money for a bad experience. therefore never do not agree to the suggestions of some service members to "bypass the program" and deposit money directly to the owner

As a rule (verified by the editors, unfortunately), in this way people simply take you out of the legal field and deprive you of the opportunity to prove something in disputable situations. Shower is not working or taps are leaking? We have not heard or seen you. Description or services are not true? Who are you, comrade? No check, no return. And so it would be.

2. Another tip. He will help you not only in Russia, but also wherever he works Airbnb... If you are traveling for 5 or more days, do not hesitate to ask at the "Special Price" service
