I have never been to Russia before... But after seeing this video, I really want to visit it... Coz all these 10 cities looks soo beautiful... Some cities looks like fairy tail cities... So beautiful architecture, so much Love from India 🇮🇳❤🇷🇺
It is bcoz Russia won't allow the US to take Russian's natural resources. And Russia already developed hipersonic weapons that the US won't have the next 30 years
I am an international student and have been living in Russia for 3 years and visited many cities in Russia , Kazan is the best city for me and I recommend visiting it in summer and the Tatars there are very friendly and so kind with all and the city very modern and clean and very amazing city 😊 Thanks for video ❤

I am from Brazil, and people always think we are all from Rio - even when our most popular city is São Paulo. Is nice to see various impoertant cities in Russia. Is a big Country. So I bet there is a lot to show that is not advertised .
St. Petersburg is my choice, I already live in second largest city named St. Petersburg it's the one in Florida so getting a chance to live in the original St. Petersburg would be a dream.
Honestly impressed me Yekaterinburg and Sankt Petersburg. Rostov on Don looking very beautiful too. My friends visited Russia before 4 years,I was invited but I can't get vacation in this time year. Best regards from your little Slavic brother Bosnia 🇧🇦.
I have traveled to Russia 10 times over the past 20 years. I have been to Moscow, St. Petersburg, Kazan, and Yeketerinburg several times. I have traveled to many smaller cities of the Golden Ring region northeast of Moscow, which should not be missed on a longer vaction to Russia. - My personal favorite is Yeketerinburg!
Up until 7 months ago when I first started to watch Russian Plus as well as Yeah Russia and Eli from Russia (and others), the only cities I knew about in Russia were Moscow, St. Petersburg, and Vladivostok. What I really like about these and many other cities in Russia is the blend of old architecture with new architecture. And the fact that these cities are very clean and modern and people friendly. I'm also impressed with the content and quality of the videos produced by Russian vloggers! You guys are spreading good will, as opposed to the news media that tends to spread ill will. This world needs more good news, not bad news, so keep up the good work.

I visited some of them like Osmk, Yekaterinburg, Nizhny Novgorod, but also Moscow and Novosibirsk. Yekaterinburg struck me for the beauty and care of the urban spaces, very well served and well maintained, besides there are buildings architecturally very interesting. Omsk impressed me particularly because I didn't expect it to be so nice, neat and clean, especially the city center.
Yekaterinburg is an industrial 🏭 sector with extremely unhealthy environment for people living there; Moscow is an administrative centre that robs and regulates the budged of the whole country and looks down at other Russian cities where you have traveled .

I would like to hear more of Russian history, as we Americans don't know much about it and the American media have given us a negative image of Russian life. Thanks again for such a wonderful video!
Russian history is much more complicated than American history, because it goes back a long way in time and has had an abundance of dynasties, governments and wars. That stated, you are asking a huge favor to have Russian history explained. As a good option, there are really good videos on CZcams that has well-produced documentaries about Russian history.
Not all cities in Russia are so great. Like for instance, Yekaterinburg is an industrial 🏭 sector with extremely unhealthy environment; Saint Petersburg is depressing, dark, grey and rainy 365 days a year.

Been to Russia twice, both times I visited Moscow and Samara, beautiful cities with a lot of history. Really enjoy your video's, keep up the good work!
For me when it’s comes to Russia, Kazan will always be fav for obvious reasons. I lived in Kazan for 1.5 years and loved every moment of it. Couple of fun facts which was not mentioned in this video about Kazan. Kazan is considered as the 3rd capital and the sports capital of Russia. Russia is my Country in Law and Kazan is where I met my wife.

I have been to 7 of these 10 cities. I must have visited your home town if Ekaterinburg over 2 dozen times in the last 15 years. They are: Rostov on Don Samara Chelyabinsk Kazan Ekaterinburg Sant Petersburg Moscow. I must say Sant Petersburg was by far the most beautiful, almost like a modern city in Western Europe. It has attractions like Bielly Noches, white nights, Nevesky Prospect and also little satellite cities like Petergof and Pushkin.

lot of open space for public - it is true for some cities but not for Moscow (I have been living here all my life) - too many people here. There are more people in Moscow than in whole Siberia

Greetings, Slava. Impressive video! I have been watching your channel as far back as 2006 when I used your teaching videos of the Russian language, which at the time I was studying prior to my trip to SPB. (I flew from Canada to SPB in December 2006 / January 2007 to watch friends of mine dance at the Mikhailovsky Theatre. Needless to say, I attended performances at the Mariinsky for the 11 days I was there.) Besides all the other commercial language programs I was using, your videos were the best constructed and conducive to learning the language. You must have been an educator in a previous life because you have the gift of teaching. Bravo to you. I will keep watching you fabulous videos.
There are many cities in Russia and what they have in common is certainly the cleaning of the streets, besides their beauty. I have been impressed by Nizdji Novgorod. Thank you for this information
@@alexsidorov9955, the pig will always find dirt ) Especially when he's looking for her, like a sergeant who checks the cleanliness of the barracks with cotton wool.
I couldn't name just one, they all looked so pretty. I wish people knew more about the beautiful parts of Russia and not always about fear mongering. If I had to pick one though it would be Kazan.
Yep, Kazan looks really interesting. Russia is such a wild & beautiful place. Like most other places, corrupt politicians cause problems but the majority of the citizens are good!
The best place I would like to live be Kazan, but for work purpose I would choose Moscow, however I am so jealous that Russian have a lot of spaces to live in, if I were move to Russia I will certainly build my own castle 😄. But a suggestion @Slava, how good would it be if you include a location for each city showing on the map... Just my thought. Great content overall. Hope to see you soon again.
It's ironic you say that) I just moved from Moscow to Kazan. 15 years in Moscow and a week in Kazan. Moscow is in a decline right now: seriously bad traffic and the ecology sucks. There are fewer and fewer green spaces giving way to apartment blocks. Kazan is one of the fastest up and coming cities in Russia.
@@wellardme Well, I won't agree on "Moscow is declining" at all - the transport infrastructure has doubled if not tripled since the times of Luzhkov, and I can see any problems with green spaces
Your videos of Russia are all fabulous, with great and pertinent information. The Russians seems so happy, busy and content. Your English speaking is awsome-no accent, excepting a slight US southern accent. David, San Diego
I am from Warsaw and visited Russia few times but I do love nature so my favourite place will be Irkutsk and lake Baykal! Amazing 🤩 but I did like Vladivostok because of water and the city is very hilly what give lots good impression! Kazan is also is very beautiful 🤩 But for short visit I love Moscow as you said you never get bored in this city !
Places I've been to in Russia: Moscow, St. Petersburg, Kaliningrad, Volgograd, Kazan, Nizhny Novgorod, Veliky Novgorod, Yaroslavl, Vladimir, Suzdal, Sergiyev Posad, and Voronezh....... the first half was for the World Cup, but got in some of those golden ring towns too....
Love this! My favorite is Novosibirsk, although Yekaterinburg is on my list of (Russian) cities to visit since discoverying your channel. Thx again. Poka-poka ✌🏾
Sadly, during public school attendance here in the USA, I was taught almost nothing about Russia or the Soviet Union. I did have several classes however covering my home state of Texas. Haha. Thanks for addressing my ignorance.

Awesome video, very informative Slava...I have been to 5 of the cities. Hopefully this summer the family can visit a few more. I would love to visit Smolensk and Veliky Novgorod, Sochi, and Suzdal, but Moscow is my favorite so far.
I would also add Krasnodar which is named the most comfortable city for living in Russia for several years already and currently the third most popular destination for inter country migration after the two capitals. Also Tyumen is worth mentioning which is the richest large city in Russia with salaries surpassing even Moscow ones.
Nice video! As you said people generally think that only Moscow and Petersburg are the cities in Russia . But there are other great cities like Yekaterinburg and Kazan.
When you mention Yekaterinburg, you forgot to mention an interesting event that a Lockheed U-2 was shot down right above Yekaterinburg on May 1st, 1960 and the American polit Francis Gary Powers was captured. ;)
Great piece Slava. I visited Moscow and Leningrad in 1991. It was fascinating experience for me. As an American, I appreciated looking in as an outsider but many of the tours only went to Moscow and Leningrad. I would love to visit these cities in Siberia and Volga region. I'm also glad you visit America and enjoy your travels in my country. Please call Vladimir and arrange a ZIL Limo to be sent over and a couple souvenirs being a Federation Council and a Duma Deputy tri-color pin. Spasibo vam Bolshoi.
Nice video, its good to learn about these cities, I travel a lot, well before the pandemic and Russia has always been on my list , planned on visiting during the world cup but missed my opportunity, beautiful country.
I love your channel. Good job. Very educational. Please share a lot more. Could you share a lot more about Siberia & Far East region like Kamchatka and Vladivostok?
Great video, comrade!)) And amazing comments from foreigners who have never been to our country - as if I'm reading comments about Mars or another planet of the solar system!))) We are smiling with my pet Bear now, he is playing the balalaika, and I am repairing my Kalashnikov assault rifle. And in the evening, we will definitely drink vodka with friends and their pet bears for world peace and for our Western friends!))) Guys, welcome to Russia! You need to know one simple thing about a trip to our country, I'll tell you a secret. How much you are afraid and worried about traveling to Russia - you will be pleasantly surprised by the same amount when you come here! Sorry, I wrote through a translator. Peace to all, comrades! Welcome! Andrey.)))
Samara and Kazan look beautiful. Would love to go Russia, but definitely need to learn how to speak more Russian than just introducing myself first lol
Very interesting. I had expected to Krasnodar and Kaliningrad to be on the list. I would bet it won't be long before Krasnodar climbs into those ranks.
Very interesting. Thx ! It would be nice if you showed the cities also on the map ;) Interestingly that most of the cities rank exactly in between 1.1 and 1.2 million people. St. Petersburg would be on top of the list for sure, since its history and culture and its closeness to europe. If I would pick on of the large "unknown" cities it is difficult to chose from Kazan and Samara. Beautiful architecture, and I like that river beach in Samara. I'll hope I can go one day on the transiberian express, to see more of this endless country. Greetings from the Netherlands (which has more towns to see then just Amsterdam ;) ). Хорошего дня!

Such a good video! Frankly speaking, I always feel offended and sad, when everyone speaks only about Moscow... No Volgograd 😢 But it is not surprising, I knew this... There is even no 1 million, even though the local authorities are constantly trying to add all the closest villages to the city... But the population is still decreasing...😢
Hello! Volgograd didn't make it to the top 10 sadly. Population is 1,004,763 as of 2021. A lot of cities are losing population and when it's increasing it's due to migrant workers mostly
@@RussianPlus the locals always say,, that a lot of people in this number are "Dead souls" ☹️ But the local authorities need to save the status of a big city with the population over 1 mln... So sad ☹️

Greetings, Slava. Impressive video! I have been watching your channel as far back as 2006 when I used your teaching videos of the Russian language, which at the time I was studying prior to my trip to SPB. (I flew from Canada to SPB in December 2006 / January 2007 to watch friends of mine dance at the Mikhailovsky Theatre. Needless to say, I attended performances at the Mariinsky for the 11 days I was there.) Besides all the other commercial language programs I was using, your videos were the best constructed and conducive to learning the language. You must have been an educator in a previous life because you have the gift of teaching. Bravo to you. I will keep watching you fabulous videos.
I agree with you! I am Russian myself. And I am learning so much from Slava's videos.
There are many cities in Russia and what they have in common is certainly the cleaning of the streets, besides their beauty. I have been impressed by Nizdji Novgorod. Thank you for this information
it's my native city) Thank you!) If you were there at 2018 so I can assure you that in last 3 years Nizhny Novgorod became better )
@@alexsidorov9955 Very beautiful city
Russian cities are dirty, what are you talking about
@@Madikon07 where are you from to tell me (russian citizen) something about what Russia is like?
@@alexsidorov9955, the pig will always find dirt ) Especially when he's looking for her, like a sergeant who checks the cleanliness of the barracks with cotton wool.
I couldn't name just one, they all looked so pretty. I wish people knew more about the beautiful parts of Russia and not always about fear mongering. If I had to pick one though it would be Kazan.
Yep, Kazan looks really interesting. Russia is such a wild & beautiful place. Like most other places, corrupt politicians cause problems but the majority of the citizens are good!
And now my world just got a little bigger thanks man!
The best place I would like to live be Kazan, but for work purpose I would choose Moscow, however I am so jealous that Russian have a lot of spaces to live in, if I were move to Russia I will certainly build my own castle 😄.
But a suggestion @Slava, how good would it be if you include a location for each city showing on the map... Just my thought.
Great content overall.
Hope to see you soon again.
It's ironic you say that) I just moved from Moscow to Kazan. 15 years in Moscow and a week in Kazan. Moscow is in a decline right now: seriously bad traffic and the ecology sucks. There are fewer and fewer green spaces giving way to apartment blocks. Kazan is one of the fastest up and coming cities in Russia.
@@wellardme Well, I won't agree on "Moscow is declining" at all - the transport infrastructure has doubled if not tripled since the times of Luzhkov, and I can see any problems with green spaces
Your videos of Russia are all fabulous, with great and pertinent information. The Russians seems so happy, busy and content. Your English speaking is awsome-no accent, excepting a slight US southern accent. David, San Diego
I am from Warsaw and visited Russia few times but I do love nature so my favourite place will be Irkutsk and lake Baykal! Amazing 🤩 but I did like Vladivostok because of water and the city is very hilly what give lots good impression! Kazan is also is very beautiful 🤩 But for short visit I love Moscow as you said you never get bored in this city !
You love nature, you need to go to Sochi. The nature there is unique.
@@user-qh6dh2br8t I heard Sochi is the most expensive city to visit in Russia as is very popular Russian destinations!
What about water? What with it?
Pozdrawiam z Moskwy przyjatiel!
Привет из Москвы ✌️
@@user-qh6dh2br8t Fun fact : sochi is an ancient Circassian homeland
Places I've been to in Russia: Moscow, St. Petersburg, Kaliningrad, Volgograd, Kazan, Nizhny Novgorod, Veliky Novgorod, Yaroslavl, Vladimir, Suzdal, Sergiyev Posad, and Voronezh....... the first half was for the World Cup, but got in some of those golden ring towns too....
Impressive
Круто молодец ❤
Love this! My favorite is Novosibirsk, although Yekaterinburg is on my list of (Russian) cities to visit since discoverying your channel. Thx again. Poka-poka ✌🏾
we say poka 1 time
Sadly, during public school attendance here in the USA, I was taught almost nothing about Russia or the Soviet Union.
I did have several classes however covering my home state of Texas. Haha.
Thanks for addressing my ignorance.
Krásná a bezpečná města,ta západní města jsou nebezpečná i přes den a v noci jde o život!

to víš že jo, kecy... kriminalita se rodí především z chudoby, drog, alkoholu, bezdomovectvi, špatné nebo žádné výchovy, korupce, nefunkčního právního systému a nefunkčních policejních složek, a toho všeho je v Rusku víc než dost.
I agree! Sadly but it’s true… Great Russia 🇷🇺 ❤
I have been to Moscow and Novosibirsk. The Circus in Moscow was a highlight of my travel. The language barrier made it difficult but not impossible
So Krasnoyarsk, Ufa, and Perm barely missed this list. Thank you for this video.
Well that's true a lot of the cities barely missed it. Tyumen, Krasnodar, Volgograd, perm etc
Awesome video, very informative Slava...I have been to 5 of the cities. Hopefully this summer the family can visit a few more. I would love to visit Smolensk and Veliky Novgorod, Sochi, and Suzdal, but Moscow is my favorite so far.
Honourable mentions : Vladivostok, Sochi, Kaliningrad, Grozny, Krasnoyarsk
I know. But I just went by population. If I had to mention all the major cities there would be at least 25.
I would also add Krasnodar which is named the most comfortable city for living in Russia for several years already and currently the third most popular destination for inter country migration after the two capitals. Also Tyumen is worth mentioning which is the richest large city in Russia with salaries surpassing even Moscow ones.
@@PaulV. Do you know why Tyumen is so rich? Is it because of the mines or oil industry?
@@OlgasBritishFells Oil. Another similar rich city - Surgut but its much smaller than Tyumen.
Valdivostok - 600 000 population, kaliningrad,sochi - 450 000 population. It`s video about cities-millioners i think
All Russian cities are so clean clean and beautiful
All the ones with the most population and money... It is the same in the poorer regions than pretty much most other countries
Not really)
No
No...
@@lauri9061вы не правы,живу в населенном пункте 30 тыс.человек в Краснодарском крае,у нас всё чисто,выкрашено,найти мусор на улицах сложно
Nice video! As you said people generally think that only Moscow and Petersburg are the cities in Russia . But there are other great cities like Yekaterinburg and Kazan.
When you mention Yekaterinburg, you forgot to mention an interesting event that a Lockheed U-2 was shot down right above Yekaterinburg on May 1st, 1960 and the American polit Francis Gary Powers was captured. ;)
He was then taken to the pilotburo✈️
All very beautiful cities. I actually appreciate the grandeur of much of the Soviet era architecture, along with wide avenues and open spaces.
Great piece Slava. I visited Moscow and Leningrad in 1991. It was fascinating experience for me. As an American, I appreciated looking in as an outsider but many of the tours only went to Moscow and Leningrad. I would love to visit these cities in Siberia and Volga region. I'm also glad you visit America and enjoy your travels in my country. Please call Vladimir and arrange a ZIL Limo to be sent over and a couple souvenirs being a Federation Council and a Duma Deputy tri-color pin. Spasibo vam Bolshoi.
Nice video👍. Hi from Rostov-on-Don.
P.S. man your english is amazing
Thanks for sharing, it's really knowledgeble!
Tack för bra video 👍🌹🌹💖🎄👍
St Petersburg and Kazan look really interesting to me.
Samsara is one of my favourite cities of Russia.
Kazan is Tatarstan
@@Madikon07 And Tatarstan is one of republics (region) of Russia
@@alexsidorov9955 Republic but not region
@@alexsidorov9955 writing that Kazan is Russian is same as writing that America is British
Loving the vlogs. The view was amazing.
Fantastic video. congratulations

Love the camera work.Given the cold weather I would pick Novosibirsk. Looks like every city in Russia is beautiful and rich in history.
The first time I watch your video, I thought you might be an English speaker. But wow, A Russian guy. Your voice and accent are amazing
Great video and information about the nice cities outside Moscow and St Petersburg. Keep up the good work Bubba.
Great video Slava. You're always enlightening. Are all those drone shots yours?
É Uma cidade mais linda que a outra, que sonho conhecer este país maravilhoso, ainda vou fazer isto nesta vida, na próxima quero nascer ai.
I feel the same and I long for an evening ride in a troika 🤗💞🇬🇧✝️

Плохая идея - жить в России. Зарплата 600$ - 800$, не очень много

@@mayakstudios7292 , у лохов такая зарплата. У нормально работающих и квалифицированных намного больше.
Thank you, Slava! Very interesting. You video shows what a great country Russia has become. Best regards.
This is a great orientation to Russian cities. Thanks for posting. Good work!
Very informative video Slava! I'm putting some of these cities on my travel list.
Entire country is beautiful, Russia is my dream country, I like a lot, although I impressed with KAZAN...😍😍
I've been there, its super clean, modern, and just plain nice!
We Indian will always support to our dear friends Russia 🇮🇳🤝🇷🇺
Спасибо, брат!
I am so excited for St. Petersburg. I am going to study my college there and love it already. Thanks for the informative video
Great video Slava! Very well done and super interesting to watch!!
Nice video, its good to learn about these cities, I travel a lot, well before the pandemic and Russia has always been on my list , planned on visiting during the world cup but missed my opportunity, beautiful country.
I`d love to visit St. Petersburg. Thank you for sharing. Love, peace and justice.
Great great great video🙋🏻♂️
As always Slava 🙋🏻♂️ greetings from Tampico-México 🙋🏻♂️
I love your channel. Good job. Very educational. Please share a lot more. Could you share a lot more about Siberia & Far East region like Kamchatka and Vladivostok?
can you make a video about the cities in russia which you like most or do some studies of russian economy at the present?
Great video, comrade!)) And amazing comments from foreigners who have never been to our country - as if I'm reading comments about Mars or another planet of the solar system!))) We are smiling with my pet Bear now, he is playing the balalaika, and I am repairing my Kalashnikov assault rifle. And in the evening, we will definitely drink vodka with friends and their pet bears for world peace and for our Western friends!))) Guys, welcome to Russia! You need to know one simple thing about a trip to our country, I'll tell you a secret. How much you are afraid and worried about traveling to Russia - you will be pleasantly surprised by the same amount when you come here! Sorry, I wrote through a translator. Peace to all, comrades! Welcome! Andrey.)))
such a beautiful video, I enjoyed watching this.
Thank you for this excellent video.
Samara and Kazan look beautiful. Would love to go Russia, but definitely need to learn how to speak more Russian than just introducing myself first lol
Besides Moscow, I love Kazan, everytime I see videos of it I am impressed. I also like Samara and Yekaterinburg.
These are great videos he does. Thank you.
Great video! Thank you!
Живу в Новосибирске и тут дубак ппц

Another great video, Slava, thank you! I like St. Petersburg the most, it's just so beautiful!
Great video!
Great video, would be awesome if you added some shots of where the cities are located on the map
Very good video! It is interesting and informative for me living in Russia 😊
Very interesting. I had expected to Krasnodar and Kaliningrad to be on the list. I would bet it won't be long before Krasnodar climbs into those ranks.
I like all these cities, beautiful and clean. From the video, I like Kazan very much.
Very short but excellent informative video
hi slava .happy new year.....what a beautiful country is Russia..appreciations from India
I could listen to your voice all day! 💕
A great video. Flawless pronunciation. Pleasant to watch
Wow, thank you!
Nice video.
Russia is number 1 of countries I want to visit abroad. I have a very positive view of the country and it's people.
Many thanks, very interesting
Very clever video so interesting. Moscow is my favourite city and St Petersburg a close second. Thanks 👍
I’m extremely happy that you are enlightened people. People still believe Russia lives in the dark ages.😉💁❤️🇺🇸Arizona.
Very interesting. Thx ! It would be nice if you showed the cities also on the map ;) Interestingly that most of the cities rank exactly in between 1.1 and 1.2 million people. St. Petersburg would be on top of the list for sure, since its history and culture and its closeness to europe. If I would pick on of the large "unknown" cities it is difficult to chose from Kazan and Samara. Beautiful architecture, and I like that river beach in Samara. I'll hope I can go one day on the transiberian express, to see more of this endless country. Greetings from the Netherlands (which has more towns to see then just Amsterdam ;) ). Хорошего дня!
For example Zoondam and Rotterdam ) I have postcards of these beautiful cities that my father ( navigator) brought me at the end of the 70s of the last century)

Great info….
Nice video👍👍
Such a good video! Frankly speaking, I always feel offended and sad, when everyone speaks only about Moscow...
No Volgograd 😢
But it is not surprising, I knew this... There is even no 1 million, even though the local authorities are constantly trying to add all the closest villages to the city... But the population is still decreasing...😢
Hello! Volgograd didn't make it to the top 10 sadly. Population is 1,004,763 as of 2021. A lot of cities are losing population and when it's increasing it's due to migrant workers mostly
@@RussianPlus the locals always say,, that a lot of people in this number are "Dead souls" ☹️ But the local authorities need to save the status of a big city with the population over 1 mln... So sad ☹️
Yeah, Moscow is adding areas too. I used to live in New Moscow which is about 25km south of MKAD.
А что про Волгоград можно сказать? Ну знаю я про статую, знаю про историю времен второй мировой. Из современного знаю, что на равне с Краснодаром любят "южане" устраивать стрельбу в городе в небо)) Хотя по моему они щас это везде устраивают.
Mermaid I’m subscribed to your channel (from Texas, USA) so I knew 😊
