 | | Traveling the Trans-Siberian - Russian Life |
Watch this video from EuroNews' Russian Life about traveling the Trans-Siberian. At midnight every other day, a "Rossiya" train leaves Moscow for a week-long trip to Vladivostok. It is an extraordinary trip and many come from far and wide to do it. Vladimir Kosinov, the Train Master, says: "You can learn a lot about Russia by crossing it from Moscow to Vladivostok on this train. If you observe other passengers, especially Russians, if you get to know them then you'll understand many things about our way of life and the "mysterious Russian soul". Lots of people decide to stop in the historic Siberian city of Yekaterinburg and then a few days further down the line in Irkutsk where they can see Baikal, the world's deepest lake. From there they can head south to Mongolia and China or continue their eastward journey to Vladivostok, Russia's main port city on the Pacific Ocean. Whatever the destination, for those with a spirit for adventure, the Trans-Siberian trip is a Russian specialty not to miss.
