Uglich is a city on the river of time, which, at first glance, is frozen here. "As if from a fairy tale" is how tourists who visited Uglich for the first time characterize it. Historical buildings have been preserved in Uglich, which makes it possible to perceive it as a single architectural ensemble.

The indomitable Russian spirit is especially keenly felt here. The city, like a phoenix bird, was rebuilt several times from the ashes after complete destruction

The landscapes of Uglich, opening from the steep bend of the Volga, have long been loved by tourists arriving in the city by motor ships.

Uglich is older than Yaroslavl, and it has repeatedly found itself in the epicenter of significant events in Russian history. Today, the church of Tsarevich Dimitri on Blood reminds of this, and the chambers where the youngest son of Ivan the Terrible lived in exile. After refreshing the events of Russian history in your memory, take a walk along the beautiful embankment, walk through the atmospheric museums. Russian russians have an extremely wide range, as well as the Russian soul itself – from the museum of the history of hydropower, whistles or doll galleries to the museum of the "History of Russian Vodka", the museum of playing cards or prison art.

Master the "Spider" bike in the Arsenal of unusual "Scooter" bicycles, in the summer, go kayaking with an instructor, go to a master class with local craftsmen and certainly try the products of Uglich cheese makers. Leaving Uglich without local craft cheese is unforgivable.
