Novosibirsk in one day: route from the center
Novosibirsk is a dynamic metropolis that knows how to surprise with its culture, scale and contrasts. We recommend starting your acquaintance with the city directly from the DoubleTree by Hilton Novosibirsk hotel, which is located in the very center of all significant events.
Morning: The Opera House and the grandeur of Lenin Square
Just a few minutes leisurely walk from our hotel you will find yourself in front of the symbol of Novosibirsk — the Novosibirsk State Academic Opera and Ballet Theater. This is the largest theater building in Russia, striking with its unique silver dome. Walk around it to appreciate the full scale of Soviet classicism.
"The Novosibirsk Opera House is often referred to as the Siberian Colosseum. Its dome has a diameter of 60 meters and is not supported by any additional columns."
Lunch: coffee shops on Krasny Prospekt
Novosibirsk is rightfully considered one of the coffee capitals of Russia. Turn onto Krasny Prospekt, the main thoroughfare. There are atmospheric, quiet places where you can grab a cup of excellent specialty coffee. This is the perfect time to take some atmospheric shots in the outdoor squares.
Day: Ob Embankment and Mikhailovskaya Embankment
After lunch, head to the south side of the city to the Ob River. The renovated Mikhailovskaya Embankment is a favorite place for walking among citizens of all ages. Here you can ride one of the tallest Ferris wheels in the country and see the panorama of the great river and the bridges of Novosibirsk in all their splendor.
We recommend ending the day in the cozy and festive atmosphere of the Paris restaurant in the DoubleTree by Hilton Novosibirsk, where you will find exquisite author's cuisine and a well-deserved evening rest.
