Among the news of Pskov tourism - the restoration of the first local Kremlin, the emergence of online tours of Pushkin places and the choice of "live" symbol of the region. Pskov region is one of the richest regions in Russia - both on the part of the cultural-historical and natural heritage. Pskov Krom (Kremlin) is the first and most important fortification of the city, the wall thickness of which reaches 6.5 m, height - 12 m, built in VIII -XVII centuries. Pskov Kremlin has been destroyed for many times.

The first restoration of the walls was carried out by order of the Emperor Alexander II and lasted for half a century. This year the preparations for the restoration of the south wall of Pskov Kremlin coming to the confluence of two rivers - the Great and Pskov - started, and the work itself will be completed in 2015.

The restoration will be carried out by conventional techniques using the same mortar as in the Middle Ages, and the fragments of the front masonry of limestone brought from the quarry near the village Palkino in Pskov region. The restorers still find it difficult to define the full scope of work, as archaeologists are going to excavate the foot of the walls that coming down to a depth of 5 meters to the base of the cliff on which Pskov Kremlin stands.

But the Pskov region is not only the ancient walls and temples. This region is primarily associated with the name of Alexander Pushkin - in 2022 Pushkin Reserve celebrates a century of existence. However, such a considerable age does not mean archaic museum technologies. Today, with the help of the computer any Internet user can go to Svyatogorsky Assumption Monastery, where A. Pushkin was buried. Virtual visit to this shrine has appeared on the official website of the State Pushkin Museum “Mikhailovskoye”.

This web-excursion develops Internet traditions of the Pushkin Reserve: in 2012 it became possible to make a virtual tour around Michailovskoye and Trigorskoye villages, in summer 2013 – around the Petrovskoye estate. The same way you also can visit other exhibitions including those have been closed. The reserve is planning to develop a similar tour to the museum complex "Pushkin Village" - not so long ago recreated typical peasant homestead of Pushkin's times.
