Chasing the Sunset

“Sunset Capital” is one of the city's main brands. The route starts on Gorky Square, and most of it runs along Fedorovsky Embankment, with a wonderful view of the confluence of the Oka and the Volga. See a ten-meter (33-foot) mosaic, visit an exquisite early-20th-century mansion and Russia's only monument to Jules Verne, and many more amazing places.
