With some great road trip options available in the surrounding area, renting a car makes good sense. Without one, it wouldn’t be half as easy to experience all that Rostov-on-Don, 30 miles away, has to offer. See the best sights beginning with Olimp - 2, Gorky Park and Don State Technical University. Taganrog is another terrific option. It’s 30 miles away and has an array of fun things to see and do. Chekhov House Museum, Taganrog Museum of Local Lore and Chekhov Literature Museum are just the start.
