If you’re searching for day-trip inspiration, we’ve got a couple of ideas. Located 19 miles away, Cheboksary is worth jumping in the car for. Monument of Mother, Chuvash National Museum and Museum of V.I. Chapaev alone make the drive out worth it. Don’t miss Yoshkar-Ola either! Just 60 miles away, Museum of the History of the Gulag, Sapaev Mari State Opera and Ballet Theatre and Mari El National Shketan Drama Theater are essential stops here.
