In the middle of the XII century during the government of Prince Andrei Bogolyubsky Vladimir became the main city of the North- Eastern Russia, and during Tatar-Mongol invasion it became the capital for the whole country. Prince Andrei and then his junior brother Vsevolod ""The Big Nest"" turned the fortress into the town of gold domes and white stone. The white-stone monuments of Vladimir have preserved till today: the Golden Gates, the Assumption and the St. Demetrius Cathedrals.
Suzdal. ""A museum in the open air"" is a most exact description of this ancient Russian town that has about two hundred ancient monuments of secular and religious architecture clustered on the area of nine square kilometres, and the calm waters of the Kamenka River have been reflecting the silhouettes of the numerous churches for about a thousand years. Among architectural monuments of special interest for tourists is the Kremlin surrounded by ancient ramparts, the complexes of the Convent of the Intercession and the Monastery of Our Savior and St. Euthimius, the Museum of Wooden Architecture and Rural Life, XVIII century Posad churches, and the Gostiny Dvor (Posad Marketplace, 1811).
