Hardcore Russia Travel: Train Journeys Filled with Adventure and Surprise
Russia is the largest country in the world by land area, but its population is not outstanding, only one-tenth of China. The recent donation of supplies from Russia to our country has sparked heated discussion, and the donated items are calculated in cubic meters. The 'straight man' attributes are undoubtedly exposed. This national situation also makes this country's tourism quite full of.
In principle, Russia is our neighbor, but thinking about friends around me, many go to Japan and Korea for tourism, and many go to Thailand and Southeast Asia for tourism. Conversely, the number of people who go to Russia for tourism is less than that of these places. This is because Russia's tourism is relatively 'Buddhist' and inherently arrogant; in addition, its safety is not very good, and there are many cases of theft and robbery without warning in tourist areas and stations.
I remember my last trip to Russia, the leader brought us from St. Petersburg train station by train to Moscow. It was a night train, and before arriving at the station, the leader repeatedly warned us that there were thieves at the station entrance, and if they couldn't steal, they would rob openly. Most of these people came from nearby underdeveloped countries. And the day before we visited the Winter Palace, a group friend lost their wallet.
Therefore, when traveling to places with poor safety, it is best to keep your money and documents close to your body. If you encounter one out of ten incidents, you will regret it. Fortunately, we had a lucky escape when we arrived at the station. The station looked much safer, and there were also some restaurants and cafes where we could sit and relax, which was much safer.
Finally, we boarded the train. We had been wondering what the Russian night train berth was like. Here's the actual situation: First, the gap between the train and the platform is particularly large, and short boys may even 'pull out' themselves, so if women carry luggage, they can ask men for help.
Second, the configuration in the berth compartment is quite interesting – four people in a small compartment with upper bunks, each compartment can be locked, and there are two locks, which is very safe and private. Perhaps because Russians are not talkative, four people in a small compartment is quite spacious, if it's a group of familiar people that would be even better. If you need to go out to the toilet, you can use a card to enter and exit, which is very advanced. What I was most happy about was that each bed has a charging socket and a phone pocket, definitely a paradise for mobile phone enthusiasts. Great praise!
In summary, the taciturn Russians did not do a good job in the packaging and promotion of tourism, and its safety is relatively general. But this great nation is still worth exploring and experiencing many beautiful scenery and culture, definitely worth a visit!
