Astrakhan - The Other Way

Astrakhan sits at the bottom end of the mighty Volga river, just before it empties out into the Caspian Sea. Famous for its abundance of Caviar, both black and red, Astrakhan has been land & se trade route for centuries. Join Luc as he shows you the sights, including the Astrakhan Kremlin, the Volga embankment and a fish market. And a pub.

    hey that's my birth city! astrakhan is brilliant and you showed it brilliantly... however it would be nice to see you do a video during the warmer seasons in astrakhan as it is much more pleasurable to see the Volga and its people when its warm. Much of the architecture has not been touched during the wars. still this was a great representation of Astrakhan!

    Thank you Natasha - I admit that the majority of places in Russia look better in the summer, but I am too restless to sit around waiting for warm weather !! Please do share my video with your friends from Astrakhan - I was there 8 years before and it has improved significantly.

    Caspian seas surface is itself below sea level. Because its not a sea its a lake. Called a sea bc its big. Sea level is oceans. So yeah, no danger of the downstream Caspian sea of swallowing this city
