A picturesque site on Lake Nero. The views from the walls are splendid and the whole area is so peaceful. Don't miss the "last judgement" fresco in the church of our savior!
Практически всем известно, что знаменитая советская комедия «Иван Васильевич меняет профессию» снималась именно в Ростовском Кремле. И до сих пор это место сохраняет дух истории. Со смотровой площадки на Звоннице Успенского собора открывается прекрасный вид на стены и соборы кремля, а с башни вы можете увидеть панораму города и озеро Неро. В кремле понравились интересные экспозиции, древние фрески, итальянские арки и прогулки по стенам. Территория очень ухоженная. Отдельно стоит упомянуть, Сад Митрополита, ряды плодовых деревьев, аккуратные грядки с овощами. Были там в августе, в саду стояла корзина с яблоками, которые можете пробовать.
монументальное строительство, необычные музеи, красивые виды, озеро. Финифть - какое-то заморское слово))
I'm not sure that Kremlin is the only one reason to visit Rostov but it's really zest of this town. If you are going there watch russian film "Ivan Vasil'evich menyaet professiu" (very popular soviet film). So when you'll enter inside you'll think that you already have been at the Kremlin. I think it's interesting to visit walls and churches of Kremlin, if you have not enough time - forget about all expositions, visit only this, you won't be dissapointed.
An extremely pleasant drive away from Moscow (just bout 200Kms) this place makes for a beautiful fairy tale setup. The Kremlin is nice in the backdrop of a lake. A very laid back place its a befitting contrast to the massive crowds in Moscow and Spb. Lots of options to eat and stay. I personally felt the place is good enough for a day visit.
It was amazing even with cloudy weather! The only thing - try to avoid visit on russian holidays and so called long weekends - many local tourist groups are there. Picturesque view from the bell tower. And the bells are impressive!
A must see. Not much else around town but this complex is totally worth a stay over in town,
The kremlin appears to be the only reason that visitors come to Rostov Veliky. It's lovely to walk around the grounds, sit and read or contemplate, and climb partway up the towers. The cathedral is spectacular. The oldest church was being repaired on the outside, but services for locals are held there. The bells are wonderful. There aren't enough visitors to make it touristy, but you can buy bell souvenirs or pictures from any of several artists. There is a small inn and restaurant on the kremlin grounds.
Very historical place. It really wakes up your imagination.
The ancient City of Rostov sits on the shores of Lake Nero. Often referred to as Rostov Veliky (that is, Rostov the Great) to differentiate it from Rostov on Don it is one of the treasures of the Golden Ring. As one approaches the Rostov Kremlin the most impressive thing about it is the cluster of onion domes rising over the walls. In fact, it brings to mind, more than anything else, a vision of what a Russian Fairy tale might look like if it suddenly came to life. Rostov architects followed the unusual practice of embedding clay pots in the walls of the churches, which served to enhance the acoustics. We were fortunate to hear an ensemble sing in the cathedral which showed the aural space off to perfection. If I were filming a movie placed in late medieval Russia, Rostov would be a logical place for the out door filming. It is positively atmospheric.
