Top impressions

- Goose Lake, Tamchinsky Datsan - one of the oldest and most famous
- Let’s get acquainted with the pearl of Russian history – the city of Kyakhtoy
Kyakhta (Troitskosavsk) is one of the most interesting old border towns I have ever seen. This is a place where you fall in love unquestioningly, without even knowing its amazing history. Once you visit Kyakhta, you will definitely return here again. Why? Everyone will have their own answer to that. But he certainly will.
Kyakhta is the end point of our relatively short journey, however, the road itself, the length of which is about 800 km in one direction, more than 200 of which passes along the southern reserved shore of Lake Baikal, and the rest of the way is no less interesting and rich in historically, geographically, and aesthetically significant objects, will give us a lot of new knowledge and, I hope, pleasant impressions.
