Svetloyar

In time immemorial, or rather during Batu’s campaign to Russia, the beautiful city of Kitezh stood in the Trans-Volga forests. And he would have stood to this day in all his glory, had it not been for the thieves who searched for him, and found him. And the city disappeared from sight, and the poppies of its churches and monastic cells went under the water. But sometimes, on a quiet sunny day, you hear the chimes of church bells. Not everyone is allowed to hear them... Visit this protected area filled with ancient history and holiness.
