This was the final stop on our river cruise from St Petersburg to Moscow. The attractions are limited in number, but well worth seeing. The main attractions are the churches of the former Kremlin.
Несколько раз бывали в Угличе, путешествуя по Волге. Вид на Кремль с реки - потрясающий. Особенно хорошо смотрится храм царевича Дмитрия. Территория Кремля небольшая, с экскурсией - все бегом, нужно приезжать самостоятельно и не спеша гулять, наслаждаясь единством природы, архитектуры и истории
This one is really old compared to many others and it is truly lovely. Even on an ugly autumn day the colours of the buildings were bright and the displays interesting. Try to walk around a bit and discover the hidden history. I'm not sure how this place is utilised for English speakers, though.
Палаты удельных князей входят в состав музеев Кремля (УИХМ).Здание палат удельных князей является главной парадной частью большого княжеского дворца, по-строенного в Угличским кремле в конце XV века. По тем временам это был один из первых каменных дворцов. Эти палаты – единственное дошедшее до нас строение дворца.Сейчас в палате размещаются две отдельные экспозиции Угличского музея. На верхнем этаже в тронной Палате представлена коллекция крестов и икон, окладов на Евангелия и т.д. Особо обращают на себя уникальные оклады икон, которые выполнены из жемчуга и цветного стекляруса. В палатах нижнего этажа расположена экспозиция, отражающая жизнь Углича XVI-XVII веков: оружие, одежда, меры веса и объема и прочее.
Well worth a visit if you are in this town. The architecture is from the 1400s and the colors invoke the best of Europe and Russia. In order to get here it is a short walk and easy to do even with a wheelchair, however no wheelchair access inside most of the buildings. The Kremlin itself is a collection of Churches and Buildings. Fees apply for some of the buildings and for taking pictures in some.In order to get to the Kremlin from the ship docks you must walk through the Trail of Temptation, a long row of Tourist Shops with all sorts of different stalls selling Russian Souvenirs. You can and should actually bargain prices here.
True, the kremlin walls are gone, but the churches are really nice. The blue domes with gold stars of the Church of St. Demetrios on the Blood was my favorite in all of that we saw on our trip. It’s also gorgeous inside with the soaring iconostasis. The floor is made of metal, which they said only a Czar could afford. They warned that it really attracts lightning.The outside of the Transfiguration Cathedral was a bit faded, but it has a beautiful interior, also. Near Uspenskaya street, there is a statue of Lenin.Perhaps not technically on the Kremlin grounds, there are a lot of souvenir kiosks in the park as you walk to and from the pier. Buy your hats, T-shirts and sweaters here. Where we were docked in Moscow, we never saw places like this to buy these souvenirs.
Сделали монету для ребенка у кузнеца. Рядом небольшире церквушечки. Везде платный вход. Еси зима- то горки для катания тут же располагаются.
OF whatever little time we spent in Russia, this place was where we enjoyed it most. It's pretty beautiful and the architecture of those old buildings is very good. Most of us have read quite a bit about Russian history and seeing the place where so much history happened was quite a moving experience
It is very crowded, but there is room to spread out. Many wonderful churches to visit. Can see the outside of the government office building (bright yellow) and the Armory museum is a must. We saw official cars coming and going,and warning they do not slow own for pedestrians.
