If you’re looking for day-trip inspiration, we’ve got a couple of suggestions. Located 40 miles away, Chekhov is worth the drive. See the sights beginning with Museum in Memory of 1941-1945, Lopasnya Zachatyevskoye Manor House and Museum and Chekhov Town Theater. Locals are also likely to point you in the direction of Serpukhov, 40 miles away. If you can only see one thing here, let it be Serpukhov Music and Drama Theatre. (But we’d also highly recommend Vysotsky Monastery and Church of All Saints.)
