1. For tourists who expect to visit Volgograd in the summer, it is best to refuse trips in the first half of June. Traditionally during this period there is a peak of activity of mosquitoes and midges, which makes staying in the open air simply impossible. This feature should be taken into account also by motorists; machines suffer from midges no less than people.
