Traveled with her husband in the summer of 2016 on the Volga. The beginning of our vacation was in the city of Tver, from which we went to a three-day catering tour of the Volga. After a water journey, we stayed in Tver for one night to restore forces. The next morning we managed to see the city center.
The central part of the city is located on both sides of the Volga River. The Imperial Travel Palace is on the right bank, in which Catherine Two. Tver is located in the middle between Moscow and Peter, and is a transshipment point between the two capitals, where the members of the royal family remained for the night. At the time of our visit, the palace and the park around him was on the restoration, they managed to look only through the fence. But it is available for photographing a monument to Alexander Pushkin.
Pleasantly pleased the central city park. Early in the morning, several women were engaged in the improvement of alpine slide. The park decorate beautiful benches and statues in the classic style, for some reason in the same poses and with an indifferent expression of the face.
For children, a separate corner is highlighted with figures of famous characters from cartoons and Russian fairy tales.
A monument to the fisherman is located on the embankment, which will completely come from from afar. Stone cat successfully "tyrit" he has a fish.
On the other side of the Volga is located the building of the river station, which was in an extremely deplorable state. It was unpleasant about this building and even dangerous, and it was a little offensive that it was not necessary for anyone. In August 2017, this building collapsed, which I learned from television news.
Near the river station is a huge inscription "Tver", which has tourists to photographing in various poses. In this place, the River Tver flows into the Volga, and a chic view of the Holy Catherine Monastery opens. The Volga runs the boats, inflatable boats, sports kayaks, sailing competitions are held.
Thanks to the long promenade and the calm flow of the river, the city leaves a pleasant impression. After Teri, we visited the provincial town of Kashin, who is known for its picturesque beauties.
