Frozen by Communism and the Cold War for much of the 20th century, Russia has thawed over recent years, revealing a region filled with compelling travel destinations. A minor renaissance is under way as the local people welcome the world and rediscover their own cultural roots. Artists, musicians, writers and other creative types practice their crafts with few restrictions. Palaces have been polished and historic districts reinvigorated. Churches have been renovated and reopened, their shiny gold domes and soaring spires gracing city skylines. World-class dining options have emerged. Now is a great time to discover the diversity of history and culture throughout the region, including ancient villages, beautiful countryside, Jewish historical sites, bustling markets, a wealth of fine art, and architectural masterpieces ranging from medieval to Art Deco to modern.
