Ulan-Ude Tours take you to a truly unique city in a far-flung corner of southeast Siberia. Everything in this city is unusual, from its name to its color to its status as the capital of Russia’s Buryatia Republic. In Ulan-Ude, Orthodox churches stand side by side with elegant Buddhist datsan monasteries while shaman idols vie for attention with old merchant mansions and wooden houses engraved with gorgeous carvings. After seeing the city sites, visitors can head to the pristine shores of Lake Baikal, located just 100 kilometers from Ulan-Ude.
Ulan-Ude Tours are more than just a fascinating journey through historic temples and estates; they are an introduction to an extraordinary yet little-known culture and a taste of authentic local cuisine fused with Mongolian and Russian flavors, all of which is wrapped up in the warm welcome of Buryat hospitality.
