There are lots of stunning stations in Russia - inside this one they have not done such a great job compared to others.
Thank you so much, Andy!!

You need to persuade hubby that a TransSiberian would be good and then fly down to Hong Kong...

Have you travelled in Russia?
I am going to watch again in full when I get back from the pub as the WiFi isn't great. But, certainly an impressive looking station and journey. (And, if a map were to fall through my letterbox; it will get pride of place next to the UK version and my departure board🤞)

Great video Andy. I was there in 1996 working, but never did that tour. The scale of the lake is incredible. Thanks for uploading it.

Excellent. One day I‘d also like to stand with my feet in the water of Lake Baikal! But how come there was no snow? My impression has always been that in January temperatures are well below freezing there.
