Vyazma - the unknown capital of Russia

A tour of the ancient Russian city of Vyazma will give you a unique opportunity to plunge into the world of military prowess, beautiful architecture, merchant enterprise, as well as folk legends and legends. It is no coincidence that Vyazma is called the unknown capital of Russia, because it was here in the middle of the 17th century that the residence of Russian Tsar Alexei Mikhailovich Romanov was for several months, since there was a plague epidemic in Moscow at that time.

In Vyazma you will see the main square of the city with the Trinity Cathedral towering above it, the Ioanno-Predechensky Monastery, on the territory of which the pearl of Vyazem land is located - the three tent Odigitrievsky Church. We will walk along the ancient streets of Vyazem, see the famous Spasskaya Tower, monuments of 1812 and the Great Patriotic War, Nakhimovsky Square, a monument to the famous Vyazmich Anatoly Papanov and much more.

In Vyazma, you will have the opportunity to taste the famous Vyazem gingerbread, about which A. S. Pushkin himself wrote: "Moscow is famous for brides as Vyazma gingerbread."

Then we will go to Hmelita, where the oldest estate of Smolensk in the Elizabethan Baroque style is located. It is here that the only museum in the world of A.S. Griboyedov is now located, and in one of the outbuildings of the estate - the museum of P.S. Nakhimov. On the way to Khmelita we will stop at the Bogoroditsky field - a place of sorrow and memory of those terrible events that occurred here in the autumn of 1941.

The land cannot be left indifferent! Come and get to know this amazing place!
