You’ll want to explore nearby Sergiyev Posad. What’s 50 miles when you have your own rental car? The road trip there is half the fun! See the best sights beginning with Trinity Lavra of St. Sergius, Refectory Church of St Sergius and Gefsimansky Chernigovsky Skit. Locals will also probably point you in the direction of Tver, 55 miles away. If you only see one attraction here, let it be Mikhail Krug Monument. (But we’re also huge fans of Tver City Park and Museum of Tver Life.)
