In principle, decide on the question that see in Murom in one day is not so difficult. For tourists there are quite a lot of attractive places - many old Orthodox churches, traditional Russian architecture and city buildings in classicism style. It is necessary only to competently build your route to examine in one day exactly what presents for you the greatest interest.
I propose first of all to inspect the most visited monument to Petr and his wife Fevronia. At the locals, this sculpture is the personification of love and loyalty. Prince Peter as it should be tightly holding a sword in his hand, and his spouse carefully throws him on his shoulders covered. This monument can be found next to the Annunciation Cathedral, which also needs to be visited, on the square just opposite the city registry office.
From those epic and fairy tales that we were read in childhood, we could not remember the name of the great Russian hero of Ilya Muromets. Perhaps someone even remembers that he comes from this city. And if more precisely, it is a native of the Murom land of the village of Karachar. The monument to Ilya Muromtsu stands on the high bank of the Oka River.
Next to it is the observation deck with which a magnificent view of the river offers. The most interesting thing is that in those long-standing times the Oka River was considered the border of the Russian state. In one of his hand, Ilya Murometh, as it should be squeezing, the Orthodox Cross holds the Orthodox cross. For many tourists, it will be possible to discovery that the hero of the ancients really lived in Russian land and protected it from enemies.
If you visit Murom by car from the regional center - the city of Vladimir, then the unusual epic stone will fall into the eyes. He personifies the heroic sculpture choke in the stone, who, as it were, meets all the guests of Murom and, accordingly, is his business card.
If you arrive by train in Murom, then you will immediately be brought into the eyes of the unusual building of his main railway station. His amazing architectural solution is striking because it resembles an old castle, surrounded by several towers. The station was built even at the beginning of the nineteenth century, that is, it can be considered a historic landmark of Murom. In the building station in our time there is a small historical museum, which, if desired, you can look.
Another extraordinarily popular not only among tourists, but also at the pilgrims in Murome is a holy Trinity Women's Monastery. Its outer walls are skillfully painted by images of invisible birds, animals and wonderful plants. And because of its lace decoration, the monastery itself seems extraordinary and as if air.
Of the modern structures in the city of the greatest interest, of course, represents the Murom Bridge, built relatively recently. He joined the two shores of the Oka and stretched 1.4 kilometers long. By the way, the bridge won a very prestigious award in the contest of the most beautiful bridges of Russia. It is located in an incredibly picturesque place and here often come not only guests of the city, but also numerous tourists to do against the background of the bridge are very beautiful photos.
