I finally visited Nizhny Novgorod City! (Not what I expected…)

Just 4 hours on a train from Moscow and you are here - Nizhniy Novgorod. This city is called Russia’s capital of the Volga river, the capital of sunsets, the cultural and historical capital, the capital of street art, the capital of Soviet cars, and even the capital of everything. Let’s see if this city deserves any of these titles.

Time codes:

00:45 Do not confuse these two Russian cities
02:53 The capital of the Volga river
03:38 The most open and 'most Italian' Kremlin in Russia
06:02 The symbol of the city
07:15 An unusual coffee house in Nizhny
