How to make your New Years celebration as memorable as possible? We have collected for you a variety of ideas of where and how to spend the New Year holidays, so that they leave extremely fond memories.
Ecotourism in Altai
For lovers of adventure and nature, eco-hotels or glamping sites in Altai will be an excellent option for celebrating the New Year. Clean, frosty, forest air and silence around create an atmosphere of complete peace and tranquility - ideal for those who dreamed of taking a break from the noisy city.
Gather a large company or go there together, set a festive table, look at the starry sky, spin round dances around the Christmas tree and then you will definitely remember this holiday for many years. Many glampings for the New Year offer for rent both bungalows and apartments with all amenities, but hurry up - it is better to book them in advance.
"Snow Village" and a ski resort in the Arctic
The unique "Snow Village" is located in the Murmansk region, in the city of Kirovsk. The world, in which everything is made of snow, will amaze not only adults, but also children: snow and ice sculptures, snowmobiling and banana rides and even the Ice Wedding Palace - all this is located on the territory of the village. It will not do without a meeting with the Snow Maiden and Santa Claus!
And for lovers of active recreation, the ski resort Bolshoy Vudyavr is located very close to the center. The grandiose skiing and snowboarding area in northwest Russia is ready to welcome both professionals and beginners. In general, this is an ideal option for those who are not afraid of the cold and dream of unforgettable emotions.
Krasnaya Polyana Mountains
Perhaps, in recent years, Krasnaya Polyana has become the center of attraction for tourists not only from all over Russia, but also from all over the world. New Year's holidays, of course, will not be an exception, but this will in no way prevent you from enjoying your vacation - the largest ski area in Rosa Khutor is enough for everyone. Moreover, it is on the territory of Rosa Khutor that there is a huge amount of entertainment that has nothing to do with skiing: swimming pools with water parks, numerous restaurants and shops, skating rinks and, of course, trips to the sea in Sochi. Agree, the opportunity to meet New Year's Eve under the sound of waves is very romantic and tempting.
Magic Great Ustyug
This city can rightfully be considered magical, because it is there that the residence of the main character of the New Year holidays - Santa Claus is located. But in his estate you can find other famous characters who live on the path of fairy tales in a pine forest: Baba Yaga, 12 months old, Mikhailo Potapych and many others are ready to meet guests with interesting tasks and riddles. And then go to the house of Santa Claus itself, see the place where he answers letters, examine his wardrobe and, of course, get to know him personally.
On December 31, a unique show is held at the residence, so you will have the opportunity to listen to the chimes next to the main hero of the occasion - the magical grandfather.
Ice Baikal
Celebrating the New Year on the cleanest and largest lake in Russia, Baikal, is undoubtedly the dream of many. The cleanest air and sea of white snow, sledding, snowmobiling and ice skating, amazing sunsets and romantic sunrises and, of course, unsurpassed nature will leave a mark in your heart for years to come.
Special attention should be paid to traditional museums that will introduce you to Siberian winter fun, as well as the legendary Olkhon Island, which is considered the heart of Lake Baikal. You can meet New Year's Eve on Lake Baikal both independently and as part of a tourist group - many companies already offer special tours.
Festive capitals
The fairy tale is very close! In Moscow and St. Petersburg on New Year's Eve, you can find a huge number of activities that will please everyone. In the capital, be sure to go to the skating rink on Red Square, ride down a slide in Sokolniki Park, take a walk through bright winter fairs, visit the country's main Christmas tree - and this is just a small part of what you can do during your holidays. And the best part is that you can fulfill the dream of many and listen to the chimes live, celebrating the New Year in the thick of events on the main square of the country.
In St. Petersburg, visit the Palace Square and Sennaya Square, watch the big festive fireworks, which will be launched simultaneously from 35 different points of the city, and admire the town of ice sculptures near the Peter and Paul Fortress, they are very beautifully illuminated with multi-colored lights. By the way, an ideal place for a festive photo! Believe me, it will give you unforgettable emotions that you will want to experience over and over again.
