Russia, this huge, so close and yet still somewhat mysterious Euro-Asian multi-ethnic state is one of the most fascinating and diverse countries on earth.
The most famous sight of Tula is the former fortress of the Tula Kremlin (RussianТульский кремль), which is the oldest until today preserved building in Tula. It was built in the years 1509 to 1520 to protect, the city and also thus northern territories of the Grand Duchy of Moscow, better against attacks from the south. The Exotarium is since more than 20 years an important herpetologic centre in Russia, at the same time it is also a small regional zoo in Tula.
