With some awesome road trip options in the surrounding area, having your own car makes sense. Without one, it’d be much harder to enjoy all that Rostov-on-Don, 45 miles away, has to offer. Among your first few stops here ought to be Olimp - 2, Gorky Park and Don State Technical University. The locals will also likely point you toward Novocherkassk, 60 miles away. If you can only find time for one attraction here, let it be Don Theatre of Drama and Comedy V.F. Komissarzhevskaya. (But we’re also huge fans of Novocherkassk Museum of the History of Don Cossacks and Ascension Cathedral.)
