The next day after a walk around Veliky Novgorod the intercity bus took us to Pskov. Nobody waited for us there, except for the owners of a pre-booked hotel "Old Pskov".

To Pskov, we dreamed of returning from 2011, when we were here for the first time accidentally. We liked this small town at first sight. What exactly did like to us? I will not tell, but I'll show it. Let's take a walk through this ancient city, founded, by the way, in 903!

First of all, we will visit the Pskov Kremlin.

Pskov Krom (the Kremlin) - the historical and architectural center of Pskov, the core of the Pskov fortress. Located on a narrow and high promontory at the confluence of the Pskov River with the Velikaya River. Occupies an area of 3 hectares.

Walking through the territory of the Kremlin, as if transferred to history, a few hundred years ago!
