The observation platforms of Vladimir allow guests of the city to admire from a different angle the medieval monuments of Russian white-stone architecture, the Golden Gate (served as a front entrance) and urban buildings of the 16-20 centuries.
Review of the best observation decks
- Water tower (the building is a building in the neo-Russian style): to go up to the 4th floor (it was built on the site of a flat roof) and admire the panoramic view, you need to buy a ticket to the Old Vladimir Museum (the cost is 80 rubles, and the discount ticket is 50 rubles; the museum is closed on Mondays). Three floors of the exposition will acquaint you with the life of the city of the late 19th - early 20th centuries - there are 800 exhibits in total, including the original lattice of one of the chambers of the Vladimir Central, as well as a selection of postcards and photographs depicting city squares, streets and ancient cathedrals. It is worth noting that the glazed observation deck allows you to admire the historical center and residential quarters, and the open one (with wonderful panoramic views) - the Patriarch's Garden, Vladimir Cathedrals, the bridge over the Klyazma, and the Zaklyazmensky open spaces.
- Viewpoint on Kozlovy Val: here you should climb the stairs on a gentle slope - from the top you will see the Water Tower, the Dmitrievsky Cathedral (one of the four facades has a convex shape; rich stucco decoration acts as an external decoration), Theater Square, Trinity Church (brick was used during the construction red; is an example of pseudo-Old Russian architecture) and other objects.
Guests and residents of Vladimir will soon have another opportunity to admire the city from a bird's eye view - they plan to install a 60-meter Ferris wheel with closed booths in Central Park (36 Mira Street) (it is assumed that they will be equipped with an air conditioning and heating system, which will allow you to use the attraction all year round).
