Well, and most importantly, we will consider the question with you - how to get to Gorny Altai.
In connection with the events taking place in Russia, rest within the country is becoming very important. The crisis and the subsequent leap in the dollar and euro made travel abroad almost inaccessible for a large number of people, so domestic tourism began to be in great demand.
Some of the most popular regions are Crimea and Altai. And if practically everything is known about the first, then even employees of travel agencies often find it difficult to tell about the capital of Russian mountain tourism.
What does he remember when he says "real Russian nature"? Green forests, trees with their peaks reaching far into the heavens, majestic rivers, pristine lakes and, of course, mountains. But, unfortunately, civilization has reached many beautiful corners with its pluses and minuses. Gorny Altai, in this regard, has a special advantage - the original atmosphere created by nature itself has been preserved.
Who should go here? First of all, for those people who want to take a break from the bustle of the city, enjoy the silence, magnificent landscapes that have not been touched by urban innovations. This is a great place to learn more about Russia and discover it from a new angle.
Travelers note: Altai is a magical place shrouded in an aura of mystery and incomprehensible aura. Many, having lived here for only a few days, begin to see everything in a different light, even the little things. People seeking solitude, as a rule, go to Altai as a savage. However, it is worth preparing for such a trip in advance and very carefully.
