WHERE AM I? --Travel Game

caprice, That building looks like the one we visited on my trip to Russia in one of the small communities between Moscow and St Petersburg.

It's a theater where we were treated to a show.

Hey, I was pretty close. How about that?

Well....you aren't really asking a question...but I don't want to lead anyone astray. It is in Russia.

Is it in Moscow or St Petersburg?

No, neither of those cities.

Kiev?

No, not Kiev.

*hint* It is north of Moscow.

Murmansk? Arkangelsk?

Neither one of those Equus.

It is a fairly small community on the Volga river.

Hmmh, 'googling' I found a lot of nice places "north of Moscow" already.

Narrowing this to 'Wolga' seemed to be a good idea, but ...

[corrected the above - to many typos, even for me :wink: ]

Okay, lemme think up another clue for you.

I'm rather sure, that place is mentioned on this site here ... :wink:

"a fairly small community on the Volga river, north of Moscow"

Gee Walter...I have the feeling (I hope! *L*) that you are teasing me!

Okay...some clues without giving it away, perhaps?

As mentioned, it is a small town north of Moscow and on the Volga River. It is considered to be in the "Moscow Region". I'm assuming that refers to the geographical region. It is a community best known for its role in a particular type of science. In fact it is self-described as internationally known for its contributions to this science.

[Above edited to add more info to clues.]

Nizhney Novgarod?

Sorry for the multiple posts, but I have to say that this particular thread has led me to learn more than most of the other threads combined!

With each new image, I am almost always sidetracked as I make discoveries about another area of the world. When I have to post an image, I invariably learn quite a bit about a place I have never been to. On top of that, I also find there can be other significances about a place that aren't necessarily related to travel, but are learning experiences nevertheless. Such as the case with this particular place.

cjhsa: No, not Nizhney Novgarod.
