Awesomely vast, diverse, different with so much on a grand scale – this is Russia; a land that impresses.
Spanning two continents and almost a dozen time zones Russia is the world’s largest country. One lake alone contains a fifth of the world’s fresh water – Lake Bailkal (The Pearl of Siberia) is the oldest, clearest and deepest lake on the planet.
Russia is also home to the world’s second largest geyser field, rivers and forests filled with wildlife, impressive mountains, a museum with over 3 million items and so so much more.
This is the land of onion domes, exciting ancient cultures, glittering Imperial cities and re-emerging creative culture spanning music, literature and the arts.
Russia can also host events on a grand scale.
At present St Petersburg and Moscow dominate Russia’s inbound MICE but post Olympics Sochi has the potential for opening up sports’ related events and for the adventurous, prepared to longer travel, there are other stunning Imperial cities worth consideration.
