When it comes to breaking records, Lake Baikal is hard to beat. This massive high-altitude rift lake in Siberia is the oldest and deepest lake in the world—reaching a maximum depth of 1,642 meters and an estimated 25 million years of age. Visitors to Moscow usually start exploring in the center, where the Kremlin, Red Square, and the colorful St. Basil Cathedral are located. Although smaller than Moscow, St. Petersburg actually has so much to offer, it's often impossible to see it all in one day. Compared to Moscow, St. Petersburg feels more European—fine art and exquisite design details mixing in with history around every corner. Anapa—perfectly located against the Black Sea as its mentioned in Russia attractions map and a very popular resort destination for decades—is well known for its sandy beaches, spas, and stunning views from the rocky promontory where Anapa lighthouse sits.

The Altay Mountains in Siberia extend from Russia into China, Kazakhstan, and Mongolia. Traditionally inhabited by different ethnic groups involved in horse husbandry and forestry, it is also a very popular tourist destination for both locals and travelers. A summer beach resort town sitting right on the Black Sea, Sochi offers long stretches of pebble and sand beaches, imposing examples of Stalinist architecture, a summer film festival known as Kinotavr, and plenty of spas and outdoor markets to please all budgets and tastes. The tundra is a unique biome that only exists in or near the Arctic Circle as you can see in Russia attractions map. Here, temperatures are so cold that trees can not grow, and only moss, shrubs, and certain types of grasses can get through the winter. In most places, the tundra is synonymous with permafrost—meaning the ground is permanently frozen.

Peterhof might be home to a university and a major Russian watch manufacturer, but this relatively small city call to fame is the Peterhof Palace. There are 173 garden fountains around the palace—some, like the Grand Cascade fountains, with special features that activate water jets when people get close. One of the world's largest lake islands, Olkhon is covered in steep mountains, lush forests, and taiga. Located in the Russian Far East as its shown in Russia attractions map, the city of Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky is surrounded by volcanoes (including the active, snowcapped Koryakskaya Sopka volcano) and cannot be reached by road. Located near the borders with China and North Korea and just across the ocean from Japan, Vladivostok is Russia largest port city.
