If you’re looking for a day-trip destination, we know just the place. Situated 25 miles away, Ivanovo is worth hopping in the car for. Arcady Severny Monument, Ivanovsky Museum of Printed Cotton and Palekh Art Museum Gallery alone make the drive out here worthwhile. The locals will also probably point you toward Kostroma, 50 miles away. If you only see one attraction here, let it be Fire Tower. (But we’re also huge fans of Ivan Susanin Monument and Kostroma Regional Planetarium.)
