With some awesome road trip options in the surrounding area, having your own car makes good sense. Without one, it’d be much harder to explore everything that Klin, 25 miles away, has to offer. Tchaikovsky House Museum, Arkady Gaidar House Museum and Klin Podvorye, Christmas Tree Ornament Exhibit alone make the drive out here worthwhile. Don’t miss Sergiyev Posad either! Just 30 miles away, Trinity Lavra of St. Sergius, Refectory Church of St Sergius and Gefsimansky Chernigovsky Skit are essential stops here.
