Russia 5 by Simon Richmond

michellebckrr's review against another edition

4.0

Great overview about Russia (and one of the few available ones that cover all of Russia). However, I found most of the places covered to be not “off-the-beaten-track”, while some small gems were definitely left out. I would have also appreciated a little less focus on the cities, as the Russian territory spans such a wide range of landscapes and natural sights. Sure, a lot of first time travelers will only visit the cities but for some more in-depth understanding of the country, smaller towns and how to get out into the wild-advice would be great.
