Attractions Nearby Novosibirsk
(Novosibirsk, Siberia, Russia, RU)



Should you tire of the attractions within Novosibirsk, or simply wish to explore the south-eastern region of Russia's Western Siberian plain, then there are a number of close by cities and towns that are worthy of attention. However, since Russia is such a vast country, the most notable of these attractions are often too far from Novosibirsk to warrant a day trip and are therefore often more suitable for an overnight excursion or short break.

The Ob River has played an important part of shaping the scenery around the region and this great Siberian river is lined with a number of good attractions, including several popular beaches, which soon fill up during the summer months. Close to Novosibirsk, make time to check out at least one of the nearby cities, such as Barnaul or Tomsk, which are amongst the largest, with the most to offer.
