With some awesome road trip options in the surrounding area, having your own car makes sense. Without one, it wouldn’t be half as easy to experience all that Ryazan, 50 miles away, has to offer. Church of the Transfiguration on Yar ought to be at the top of your to-do list here. Monument to Evpatiy Kolovrat and Ryazan Kremlin are interesting attractions too. Don’t forget about Chekhov either! Just 50 miles away, Museum in Memory of 1941-1945, Lopasnya Zachatyevskoye Manor House and Museum and Chekhov Town Theater are essential stops here.
