Excursion to Pereslavl-Zalessky

Pereslavl-Zalessky is a small town 150 kilometers from Moscow on the shore of Pleshcheev Lake. The spirit of identity and folklore reigns here, and the abundance of monasteries adds a touch of grace. You can fly in a balloon, live in a tree house and try yourself as a cheesemaker.

This city changes people's lives. Three of my close friends gave up life in the capital and moved to Pereslavl-Zalessky. I know foreigners who traveled half the world and found their home here. I will tell you how to meet these people and also fall in love with Pereslavl.

Pereslavl is a small town that has left a big mark on the pages of Russian history. It was founded by Yuri Dolgoruky in 1152, it was here that Prince Alexander Nevsky was born and grew up. At the end of the XVII century, young Peter I created his amusing flotilla, which laid the foundation for the Russian Navy. And Pereslavl-Zalessky is included in the Golden Ring of Russia.
