Russia cherishes two things: beauty and power. You can’t help but notice Mother Russia’s culture in Novgorod, the country’s birthplace, and St. Petersburg’s Catherine Palace and Hermitage will leave you speechless.

The sea has profoundly shaped the city; pleasure boats gracefully cruise between parks and promenades, while fishermen leisurely cast their lines. Moving on to the three proud capitals of the Baltics—Tallinn, Riga, and Vilnius—they have a lot to offer in terms of sightseeing and shopping.
