With some awesome road trip options available in the surrounding area, having your own car makes good sense. Without one, it’d be much harder to soak up everything that Ivanovo, 19 miles away, has to offer. Arcady Severny Monument, Ivanovsky Museum of Printed Cotton and Palekh Art Museum Gallery alone make the drive out worth it. Suzdal is another wonderful option. It’s 25 miles away and boasts an array of fascinating things to do. Suzdal Kremlin, Saint Antipius and Saint Lazarus Churches and Monastery of Saint Euthymius are just the start.
