Top Attractions of Russia

This table contains a list of Russia's attractions which we have rated3.
Due to the obvious hazards of the travel to Eastern Caucasus, we excluded Republics of Daghestan, Ingushetia, and Chechnya from this list. We sincerely hope the situation will improve and we are planning to include these regions as soon as it becomes possible.
