ekaterinburg. MurmanskElista, Pskov.Khabarovsk These are the most underrated cities in Russia.

Such information is reported in an article by journalist Jared Ranahan (American version of Forbes).

Yekaterinburg is a major cultural center, a “third capital”, a “window to Asia”.

Murmansk is interesting for various natural phenomena, for example, the Northern Lights.

The author also recalled that Elista (the capital of Kalmykia) is the only Eropean settlement with a predominance of Buddhism. The city is replete with decorated Buddhist temples and is famous for its love of chess.

Pskov will be interesting to visit lovers of ancient Russian history.

Khabarovsk will interest tourists close to the Chinese border. Due to its proximity to East Asia, Khabarovsk has a unique culinary culture.

The author of the publication noted that these cities were undeservedly in the shadow of Moscow and St. Petersburg, as in all five cities there are many interesting places and attractions.
