Golden ring of Russia: monastery near Rostov
The Golden Ring of Russia (Russian: Золото́е кольцо́ Росси́и) is a vast area in which old Russian cities are located in a ring-like arrangement and a well-known theme-route. The cities are located northeast of Moscow and were the north-eastern part of the ancient Rus'.[1] The Golden Ring of Russia formerly comprised the region known as Zalesye. The idea of the route and the term were created in 1967 by Soviet historian and essayist Yuri Bychkov, who published in the newspaper Sovetskaya Kultura in November–December 1967 a series of essays on the cities under the heading Golden Ring.[2]
These ancient towns, which also played a significant role in the formation of the Russian Orthodox Church, preserve the memory of the most important and significant events in Russian history. The towns have been called open-air museums and feature unique monuments of Russian architecture of the 12th–18th centuries, including kremlins, monasteries, cathedrals, and churches. These towns are among the most picturesque in Russia and prominently feature Russia's onion domes.
Rostov Velikiy is known as Rostov-Veliky (Rostov the Great) to distinguish it from the larger Rostov-on-Don. It is among the oldest of cities in Russia, having first been mentioned in chronicles in 862. Its most impressive sight is the white-stone kremlin which stands on Lake Nero and is now a museum-reserve. The city also has three monasteries and museums dedicated to the art of painting on enamel for which the city is famed.

It is the first time that more than 24, 26 museums of Russia are gathering together all the items to try to reconstruct the past of Russian art since the Conversion at the end of the tenth century until to the great movement which changes the rule, the reigning time of Peter the Great.

The re-enactment of Rublev''s works is extremely difficult. The only thing we can say is that there is painting before Rublev, and painting after him. There is something new in the painting after Rublev. There are new dimensions, simultaneous softness and strength, that make Rublev''s role essential, even if the complete re-enactment of his career and his life''s work is extremely hard.

The essential component is obviously Byzantine art, and everything that comes from this Byzantine civilisation, because Russia was converted (to Christianity) in 988 by Byzantine (monks). The model for the Church, for the clerical organisation, for religious buildings, liturgical instruments, the dogmatic range, all these elements come from the Byzantine Empire.

It''s not Byzantine art, it''s not Western art, it''s not oriental art, it''s Russian art. This is the ''heartly point (the heart of the matter), I think, of the exhibition

Sergiev Posad is a city in North Moscow Oblast,
which is famous for its Troitse-Sergiev Monastery,
the spiritual home of the Russian Orthodox Church.
It is often visited as a part of the Golden Ring around Moscow.
Trains leave every 30 minutes between Sergiev Posad and Moscow's Yaroslavsky train station.
The station is located at Komsomolskaya metro station (red line). A one-way ticket to Sergiev Posad costs 176 rubles
(1.5 h, prices in July, 2018) and 181 rubles(2014) on express (5-6 times a day, 1 h). It is an easy day trip from Moscow.
Bus 388 is available at VDNKh (VVTs) for 145 rubles every 15 minutes. However,
be aware of jams about from MKAD to Pushkino almost always in rather extended rush hours.
To get to the town by car take Yaroslavskoe highvay from Rizhski Vokzal (Rizhski train station) or VVTs (VDNKh) -
it takes approximately 2 hours to get to Posad: distance is 70km (40 miles), however see above about jams.
Construction of new intersection between Korolyov and Mytishchi simplified things with the jam a little,
but parts of M8 highway before and after intersection are still crowded because of bottlenecks closer to MKAD and in Klyaz'ma village.
The main tourist spot is the monastery. It can be seen from station and can be reached by foot in about 10 minutes.
The reason why one should see the city is the monastery. The monastery of Sergiev Posad is one of the most beautiful monasteries
in Russia and one of the principal spiritual centers of the Russian Church.
It is a combination of a fortress and a monastery. The seminary of the Russian Orthodox Church is located in the buildings of the complex.
There are several churches to see, a holy source and in general the whole complex with its massive walls and gates is very picturesque.
There are no admission price to pay except for the museum, which shows old religious objects and woven pictures of saints.
At the weekend the monastery can get very crowded, as it hosts some very important icons (at least copies of them).
In return it can be very interesting to observe the believers kissing the icons and praying for hours.
The grave of Boris Godunov (of Pushkin's play and Russian history) and some family members is also located here.
There is a restaurant called Rusky Dvorik (Russian courtier) which is quite good,
but also expensive taking into consideration the general price level of Russian province.
It is located just in front of the entry of the monastery.
Inside the monastery (entering through the main gate and going to the left) there is a really good bakery-pastry,
with local products that seem to be very popular among Russian visitors.
There is also a McDonald's restaurant on the modern part of the town.
Kvas - the traditional cold drink with specific taste: it was prepared based on bread. Some people say it is a bit similar with dark beer.
Mors - berry drink, may be made from any red barries, usually cranberry
Medovukha - low-alcohol drink based on honey
Moscow — about 2 h by train or 2-3 by bus 388, which arrives to VVTs (VDNKh)for around 145 rubles, as of 12 June 2011.
Pushkino — 1 h by train or bus (halfway to Moscow)
Mytishchi and Korolyov — 1.5 h (between Pushkino and Moscow)
Alexandrov is further 50 min by elektrichka and 40 min by express trains (about 5 a day).
Torbeevo Lake - a picturesque recreation place on crossing M8 with A108 (second betonka) not far from the town.
Not much in sense of infrastructure there, and there may be a lot of people in a good day, including those passing by the highway,
but the views may be nice. Took local buses in direction to Bereznyaki
(?? 28,81,120, 15 minutes walk from Bereznyaki, or if you're lucky - even closer from the next stop).
Pereslavl Zalessky can be reached by bus (about 10 a day, some of them running rather late at night.
Most of them are bound further to Yaroslavl, Kostroma or Rybinsk or by hitchhike - for hitchhike start either with local buses ?26 to Krasnozavodsk up
to the turn from the highway, every 10-15 min, or to Torbeevo lake,
than to M8, or by train to Buzhaninovo station

KOLOKOL Russian Orthodox Bells VLADYCHNY
WEAR HEADPHONES to experience 'immersive media' and the unique ringing patterns of Orthodox KOLOKOL church bells.
The founding of the VLADYCHNY women's convent dates back to the 14th century. Along with other monasteries, churches, and shrines, it's located near the confluence of two rivers in Serpukhov, Russian Federation, an hour-and-a-half south of Moscow.
To get a perspective of where the audio recording was made, that's Don Hill sitting inside the monastery's courtyard (on the extreme right of the picture); the microphones are in his ears. Thanks to Igor Florinsky for taking the photographs.
The 'binaural audio' recording was made 06 June 2017.
