One of the famous attractions of Tambov is the Aseev Residence. This luxurious mansion with the beautiful garden was built for the eminent industrialist’s family at the beginning of the 20th century. The exterior of the building combines classic, modern and baroque elements. Before the Revolution of 1917, the residence had been in private ownership. After the Revolution, the orphanage and then the sanatorium was opened here. The residence was reconstructed completely only several years ago. In 2014, the museum was opened here. There is also preserved Gostiny Dvor that was built at the beginning of the 19th century. The initiators of its construction were local merchants that invested their personal money in the building. In the 80s of the last century, the historic building was reconstructed completely. Now, it serves as a shopping center. The oldest religious construction in the town is the Cathedral of the Transfiguration of the Saviour built in the late 18th century. One of the main architectural features of the cathedral is its three-tier bell tower that is over 40 m high. The cathedral has quite a complicated history. After the Revolution, it was closed and partially destroyed. There was the local history museum in the cathedral. The church was reconstructed completely and gained its original religious status back only in the 90s of the last century. One of the oldest culture centers of the city is the Tambov Region History Museum opened in 1879. … Read further

We should start from describing the most famous places of interest of the capital. Kremlin is the main symbol of the city and an internationally famous attraction. This is a very important historic and architectural landmark, and every building on its territory is a new page in the history of the country. The Red Square is located in front of the eastern wall of the complex. During several centuries the square was a witness to many important historic events. The Red Square was constructed on the site of numerous wooden houses, which made the threat of fire very real and, therefore, their presence was inacceptable near the royal residence. Nowadays, there are many exhibition halls, museums, parks and churches near the Red Square and the Kremlin complex. … Open
