August 3rd: Sail to Yaroslavl.

Next stop is Yaroslavl which is more a small city and capital of the province
The city is over 1000 years old and was founded by Yaroslav, the son of Russia’s first Christian grand prince Vladimir the Great.
We visit the Eastern Orthodox Monastery of St. Jacob Saviour







We get some free time to wander around the city. In the centre we checked out Alexander Nevskiy's Chapel




We check out the shops to see just how the locals live and stick our nose into one of the shops selling the highly lacquered Jewellery Boxes know for in this area.









Back to the boat past The Church of St. John Chrysostom


The Saint Michael the Archangel Church.
