Tashkent - Uzbekistan 2011 [05:43]
History lessons come alive .. Tashkent to me conjures up the city where our prime minister Lal Bahadur Shastri died under mysterious circumstances on 11th.

What i found in post Russian Tashkent is a clean pretty city , with overbearing and sometimes much too grandeous architecture and monuments , what touched my heart completely are the warm and friendly people of Uzbekistan , the food , their markets , their culture which has survived despite dry , cold , successive and supressive regimes - even to date.

Today, a Viking River Cruises journey provides the perfect way to experience Russias countryside, culture and two great cities, Moscow and St. Petersburg. Moscow, Russias capital, boasts some 2500 historical and architectural monuments, 70 museums, 50 theaters, 4500 libraries and 540 colleges and research institutions. There is so much to see and experience there—Red Square, with the colorful onion domes of St. Basils Cathedral, the tomb of Vladimir Lenin and the massive 120-year-old GUM department store, the nearby Kremlin, and of course the citys world-famous Metro system. St. Petersburg provides gentler and more graceful pleasures with its romantic canals, baroque palaces and lovely avenues and squares designed along European lines. You will want to visit the Hermitage, both the historic Winter Palace and a world-class art museum with an extensive collection of works ranging from da Vinci and Michelangelo to Cézanne and Picasso; you will gaze in wonder upon the Peter and Paul Fortress with its baroque cathedral inside; and you will enjoy strolling and shopping along Nevsky Prospekt, the citys main promenade, with its lively culture of street artists and performers.
