Culture and Excitement in Russia!

May-27-2010 Posted under Travel Gear

When I go on holiday there are two things I am after. The first is some real excitement, like bungee jumping into a ravine, or white water rafting, and the second thing I look for is some real culture or history. I always bear these desires in mind when it comes to choosing a holiday destination, and this year after much searching I have decided upon Moscow. It seems that it has pretty much everything that I am looking for. The history of the place is immense. More has gone on in that city than most places in the world, and a trip to the Kremlin is a must do for any serious visitor. Not only that, but there is a fabulous array of places to visit to stimulate your cultural wishes. I found a great looking place online called the Moscow art theatre which looks just incredible. I think this will probably be one of the first places that I visit when I arrive in Moscow.

Beyond the stimulation of such cultural gems, I really need a bit of excitement when it comes to holidays. Gone are the days when my idea of fun was ten pints in the nearest pub followed by a day hungover on the beach! These days I would rather raise my spirits with action sports and things of a similar nature, and it turns out the Moscow really is a great location for anyone who is not faint hearted! I have discovered that you can actually travel to the Border of Space from by flying in a MIG-21 if you can believe it! That is 18 kilometres in an upwards direction! From here I will be able to see where the sky turns from blue to black, as our atmosphere meets space. Nothing could be more thrilling and this surely will be an experience of a lifetime.
