With sweeping views of the historic skyline, this bridge unites Smolensk across the legendary Dnieper. Every crossing links the city's bustling present with a river of stories stretching deep into the past.
Smolensk Fortress Wall
Let us stroll beneath the shadow of ancient stone! These formidable walls have witnessed epic clashes and guarded the heart of Old Smolensk. Every stone breathes the spirit of the city that has long stood as Russia's western shield. Legendary tales echo through the defensive towers as they rise over the Dnieper.

Smolensk's riverside is graced by a figure from the dawn of Russian faith. A grand prince gazes across the water, forever marking a turning point that changed the city's spiritual destiny.

Here stands a giant from Soviet history, leading the way through storms of change. This central square brings together old and new stories told by citizens for generations.
Monument to Tvardovsky and Terkin

It was good family fun. Great that you can pause to have lunch etc. was fairly easy but didn’t initially realise clues had time limits - hence missed out! Would definitely do another elsewhere.
