Day 58

Another day of wondering around. I visited the Yuri Gugarin museum which contained mainly paintings by children of the cosmonaut. Later I went to the Saratov State Art Museum, which was really rather good. And rather nicely if anyone fancies a look at its treasures then it is featured on Google Street view where one can "walk" around.

Half way across The Volga from Saratov there is a small sandy island, which is used a s a bit of a beach escape from the city. I finish my day there looking over the river back at Saratov.






This is Saratov from the bridge that spans The Volga. My hotel is the yellow building.
