If you’re after a day-trip destination, we’ve got a couple of suggestions. Sitting 25 miles away, Cheboksary is worth hopping in the car for. Monument of Mother ought to be toward the top of your list here. Chuvash National Museum and Museum of V.I. Chapaev are must-see attractions too. Don’t forget about Yoshkar-Ola either! Just 55 miles away, Museum of the History of the Gulag, Sapaev Mari State Opera and Ballet Theatre and Mari El National Shketan Drama Theater are non-negotiable stops here.
