Russia: The Golden Ring
Russia: The Golden Ring
The Golden Ring is a loop of very old towns northeast of Moscow that preceded the present capital as the cultural heart of Russia. Monasteries, kremlins and churches offer a spectacular array of early Russian art, architecture and history. No less enchanting is the countryside with its peaceful villages and beautifully decorated wooden houses.

'Four story church-2.'
In the village of Ves, north of Suzdal, the ruins of the Church of the Holy Trinity and Archangel Michael have a romantic and almost surreal atmosphere. The four stories of the high church symbolize the four holy entities to which the church was dedicated. Photo Mick Palarczyk.
