With some great road trip options in the surrounding area, having your own car makes good sense. Without one, it’d be much more difficult to experience everything that Serpukhov, 25 miles away, has to offer. Serpukhov Music and Drama Theatre should be at the top of your list here. Vysotsky Monastery and Church of All Saints are must-see attractions too. The locals will also likely point you in the direction of Kolomna, 55 miles away. If you only see one attraction here, let it be Monument to L Type Steam Locomotive. (But we’re also huge fans of Staro Golutvin Monastery and Kolomna Kremlin.)
