Russia [PART 1]

As the largest country in the world, Russia surely has abundance of unique destinations. From western area Crimean Federal District to the far easternmost region of Far Eastern Federal District. From big metropolis to ethnic villages. 

We do remember the dissolved of USSR (Union of Soviet Socialist Republics) on 26 December 1991 which made the country split into 15 countries until now. The pictures below will show you the remnants of the late Soviet. So here are some photos of road less traveled destinations in Russia.
