Novgorod the Great - One of the oldest historic cities in Russia
This series delves deep into this more than thousand-year-old cultural history in Europe’s East. For the very first time, sensational footage, shot by the world’s best cameramen, presents a bird’s-eye view of the most important and most beautiful buildings of Old Russia.
The camera explores en detail art and ornamentation, mounted on high on these splendid structures centuries ago to the glory of God, far above the line of vision of humans. Authors familiar with Russian culture find the material for their stories beneath the roofs and golden onion-shaped towers, which tell of old traditions, passions and visions. Russian and Ukrainian protagonists fill the stories, which encompass this unique culture
and architecture, time and again with their warmth, their love and a good portion of humor. They proudly present the old Russian legacy that during the World War and in the old Soviet Union days, constantly threatened to disappear.
Veliky Novgorod, also known as Novgorod the Great, or Novgorod Veliky, or just Novgorod, is one of the oldest and most important historic cities in Russia, which serves as the administrative center of Novgorod Oblast. It is situated on the M10 federal highway connecting Moscow and Saint Petersburg. The city lies along the Volkhov River just downstream from its outflow from Lake Ilmen. UNESCO recognized Novgorod as a World Heritage Site in 1992.
At its peak during the 14th century, the city was the capital of the Novgorod Republic and one of Europe's largest cities.
Nizhny Novgorod, Russia on $100. Racecars, History and Giant Cookies
In this episode of Russia: Tips, Tricks & Travel, Tim is visiting the ancient city of Nizhny Novgorod with $100 in his pocket. The word “Nizhny” means “lesser” or “lower” but this great place is lesser to no other city! In order to get here from Moscow Tim hops on the “Strizh” high-speed train which cruises at 90mph. He then gets on the local subway system to drop his stuff off at the surprisingly clean Nice Hostel NN. Hunger then overtakes him and he goes to get what is considered “the best shawarma (doner) in Russia.” With his protrusive belly full Tim then goes to take in the sights of the historic local Kremlin. From there it’s a quick walk to one of the largest staircases in the world, the Chkalovskaya, which leads down to the river and provides an unforgettable view. Next Tim must get over his fear of heights to ride a cable car (the Nizhegorodskie Ropeways) across the river and as the sun sets he stops for an amazing bar-style dinner at Seledkaicoffee, the name of which sounds not so great in English. Waking up the next day, Tim goes to the Nring race track to test out a custom race car, the stock base of which was made with pride in the region. Then Tim buys a legendary praynik cookie (biscuit) to take home from Tea and Gingerbread located downtown.

Nizhny Novgorod Kremlin
The Kremlin, the cradle of Nizhny Novgorod, is the single most important and biggest landmark in the city. Some local historians have a simple explanation for why the founder of Nizhny Novgorod Yury (or Georgy) Vsevolodovich, the grandson of the founder of Moscow, Yury Dolgorukiy, built the Kremlin on the high bank of the Volga: he was enchanted by the view of the Strelka and beyond, opening up from the hills. The view is indeed tantalizing, but security must have been his other consideration. Even when the fortress was all wooden, it offered solid protection from the enemies, while the river on the other side served as a natural barrier. The Kremlin was rebuilt in stone in the 16th century. The tea.m. of architects and builders from Pskov was joined by the Italian architect Pietro Francesco, who was known in Russia as Piotr Fryazin.
The Kremlin has 13 towers. Some of them have survived intact, others have been restored. No two towers are alike architecturally and each has its own cache of legends.
Now, as centuries ago, the main entrance to the Kremlin is through St. Demetrios Tower, the largest Kremlin tower. It was named in honour of the Church of St. Demetrios of Thessaloniki, which had once stood in front of it. That church was later replaced by the Church of the Annunciation, which, similarly to three other churches on Kremlin grounds, would not survive the years of Soviet rule.
The 18th-century buildings inside the Kremlin currently house the Legislative Assembly, the Philharmonic and the Arbitration Court. The Soviet-era architectural landmarks next door are home to the regional government, the office of the envoy plenipotentiary of the President of Russia in the Volga Federal District, the city Mayor’s Office and the local Duma. The Modern Art Museum occupies the Czarist-era military arsenal building. The Art Museum is based in the former Governor’s Mansion, and the Military Technology Museum is deployed outdoors. All the military equipment on display was manufactured in Nizhny Novgorod, and all is in good working order. Perhaps the most monumental piece of machinery on show is the T-34 tank, manufactured by Krasnoe Sormovo Factory, standing next to the Eternal Flame and the sculptural memorial commemorating the soldiers of the Great Patriotic War.
Apart from its incontestable historical value, the Kremlin is dear to every Nizhny Novgorod resident on a personal level. Prom parties and lovers hang out on the sloping edge of Kremlin Boulevard till dawn, newlyweds bring flowers to the Eternal Flame on their wedding day, and parents bring their children here for New Year’s Eve parties at the Philharmonic inside the Kremlin walls.

Russia is the largest country in the world and it offers so much to see & explore. My Instagram followers know that I am history & architecture fan, and so trip to one of the oldest cities of the country (first mention dates back to 859 year!) sounded like a great idea.
I’m sure you have heard word “Kremlin”, but internationally it is used mostly to identify Moscow and russian government, as that’s where president’s office is located in Moscow. The thing is that this word means citadel, a fortified complex in Russian towns. Veliky Novgorod (Novgorod the Great) has its own kremlin, and that’s where I directed my paws to upon arrival (0:28).
Inside, I felt like I travelled in time: amazing architecture with the jewel - St Sophia Cathedral (dd. 1050) (0:50), towers, bells, all breathing history (especially when excursion passed by with a guide that was dressed in some medieval clothes and spoke very beautifully (1:21)). I was really impressed by monument “Millennium of the Russian Statehood” (1:41): it shows important people and events that made the most impact on Russian history. Spent quite a time watching all the tiny details of this masterpiece. I’ve recognized Peter the Great (2:00), remember the one who created St Petersburg and its amazing suburb Peterhof? If you don't check here:
Out of the Kremlin, I visited impressive Victory monument dedicated to victory of the Soviet Union over the fascist invaders (2:28) and had a look at Yaroslav's Courtyard (0:07), former market place that dates back to 12 century.
I was surprised to learn that Novgorod was one of the Hansa League cities back in time (as well as Stockholm, Tallinn, Bremen, Gdansk, Cologne, Bruges, London, Bergen and others), beautiful fountain was opened in 2009. Loved the design with mosaic emblems (0:09).
I wish I could spend more time in this city and fly the heart balloon (2:18) or take a river cruise (0:22).
Visit to cities like Novgorod is a throwback to old times, unique experience I’d wish everyone to have!

Нижегородский Кремль / Nizhny Novgorod Kremlin
Нижегоро́дский кремль — крепость в центре Нижнего Новгорода и его историческая древнейшая часть, главный общественно-политический и историко-художественный комплекс города.
Первоначально, в 1221 году, он был построен из дерева как защитное сооружение недавно основанного поселения. Переустройство кремля началось в 1500 году с закладки каменной Кладовой башни, в 1505 году было приостановлено из-за набега орды и продолжено в 1508 году. Старинный кремль из дуба сгорел в пожаре в 1513 году, а новый закончили к 1516 году. Работами руководил Пьетро Франческо (Фрязин), участвовавший в строительстве Московского кремля.
В 1521, 1536 и 1574 годах крепость осаждали и пытались взять приступом, но ни разу врагам это не удалось. Кремль окружала стена длиной в 2 км, в ней было пять башен прямоугольной формы с воротами и 8 глухих, оборонных. Вплотную к стене был вырыт сухой ров, его глубина была в разных местах от 2,5 до 4 метров, ширина – около 10 м. Предположительно, ров заполнялся грунтовыми водами.
