Americans know more about Russia than we think. The fact that they represent our country as a village is a myth! What places in Russia do American tourists love and visit the most?
Two capitals
Moscow and St. Petersburg are two Russian capitals, two cities that all foreigners will name first when they mention Russia. If you ask an American to name the main attractions of our country, they will name Red Square and the Kremlin, the Tretyakov Gallery and the Hermitage. Americans consider Petersburg to be the center of art and Russian culture. Americans, like other tourists, are amazed at how St. Petersburg resembles European cities.
Siberia
Siberia is the main association with Russia. Americans think our country is a snowy clearing all year round. It is strange that they single out at least Moscow and St. Petersburg, they understand that they are not continuous snowdrifts up to the waist. It is in Siberia, according to the Americans, that real men live, bears live, there are severe frosts all year round, so one cannot escape without vodka and balalaika.
Sochi
The whole world learned about this city after the 2014 Olympics. The Americans were pleasantly surprised that in the land of eternal winter and non-melting snowdrifts there is a city where the sun shines and palm trees grow all year round. And also the Olympic Games are held at a high level! Why not visit?
