Arkhangelsk meets the northern freshness and centuries-old history: the port city on the banks of the Northern Dvina River, which since the XVI century was the gateway of Russia to the north and kept the traditions of the Pomors. Here intertwined merchant architecture, wooden architecture and memorial signs of the Soviet and pre-revolutionary era, and the atmosphere of the city combines the solemnity of the sea horizons and warm provincial soul.
Man-made sights of Arkhangelsk tell about the fate of the region - Trinity Avenue and Chumbarov-Luchinsky Avenue pass through the historical core of the city, monuments and memorial obelisks are visible on the embankment, including monuments to Lomonosov and Solovetsky youths. In the center rises St. Ilyinsky Cathedral and St. Nicholas Church, on the shore stands a monument to the victims of the intervention, and ancient manor houses, including the estate of E. K. Plotnikova, and museums reveal the cultural palette of Arkhangelsk.
The natural corners of the region are impressive in diversity: the lakes Saint, Slobodskoe, Butygino, Surzi, Varsh and Lacha, numerous rivers - Solza, Kuropolka, Svid, Tikhmanga and Kovzha - create picturesque landscapes for walking and fishing. In the vicinity there are taiga massifs and unique territories of the Russian Arctic National Park, and the island of Kiy and the island groups of the archipelago add a sea flavor and opportunities for fascinating forays to the northern shores.
