Impressive history details founding of Nizhny Novgorod

The Nizhny Novgorod Kremlin, the monument of history and culture of the world. Erected in the early 16th century to protect the Eastern borders of the Russian state, he never surrendered to the enemy! It is at the walls of the Nizhny Novgorod Kremlin 400 years ago our countrymen at the call of Kuzma Minin joined forces for the expulsion of the invaders from Moscow.

    A fantastic place to visit..
    This is a lovely place to visit especially to appreciate the view of the Volga river, the eternal flame and the WW2 memorial. There are also some nice exhibits of well preserved WW2 military equipment and excellent wall murals dedicated to the local hero's of the Great Patriotic War (1941-1945). Our visit was made even more special due to the fact that the rehearsals for the 2018 Victory Day parade were taking place just outside the Kremlin wall. At the end of the parade, we walked back to our cruise boat passing the monument to the famous aviator Valery Chkalov. At this point, there are spectacular views of the Volga from the staircase which descends to the river embankment. Overall, I found Nizhny Novgorod a lovely place a visit. It left a lasting impression of a place which I would love to return to again in the future.

    It's a real fort!
    NN Kremlin used to serve as a real military fort, unlike Moscow Kremlin that was only a decoration. The walk on the wall is a must. Just imagine: these stones are over 500 years old!.. Well, at least many of them :-)
