On the Tourism of Irkutsk and Lake Baikal in Russia

Lots of questions. I have only been to Irkutsk and Lake Baikal once. Try to help you answer.

1. The public security in Irkutsk should not be very good. It is said that sometimes there will be some drunkards and the like, and the police will check their passports. It is best to reduce the number of trips at night.

There are not many Russians who know English, and there are few signs on the street, so if you want to go, you should be familiar with Russian as much as possible, otherwise communication will be a problem.

I've never encountered such a situation, but you must always take your passport and other documents with you when you go out, otherwise the police may give you trouble. It is wise to make a copy of your passport, which may be helpful in case you lose it (but I don't know the details).

4. Irkutsk doesn't seem to have many interesting places (maybe, but I don't know, hehe). The city is small and there are no tall buildings, but the European architecture with blue sky and white clouds is still very emotional. Two days is enough. Lake Baikal is really beautiful. If you have enough time, you can play a few more days. If you have no time, you can enjoy it in three days.

I'm sorry that those two place names have not been translated. I guess one of them refers to Orhon Island, and the other one doesn't know. Xiaohaihu Bay has a good view. You can also rent a boat at the pier near Xiaohai, stay on the boat for one night, and visit Orhon Island, Gull Island and several unknown islands. The evening and morning on the island are beautiful, but it seems that the rent is a bit expensive, which is close to RMB 654.38+00,000 a day. . .

6. Hiking in the forest is also dangerous. If you really want it, you'd better find some locals to take it with you, because there are indeed bears there. . .

7. I'm not sure about this problem either. We went there to do geological survey and stayed in an internship base of a university, free of charge. . . However, there is not too much emphasis on tourism development, so there should be few deceptive behaviors (except car rental) in China scenic spots. You can go and see a few more before you decide ~

8. Well, I haven't been there. If there is, it should be a Russian specialty, such as vodka and chocolate. That airport is very much like a railway station in a small town in China, and it can't be compared with the Capital Airport.

9. It should be Camelot, about several hundred RMB, with different prices. It's a local specialty. It feels ordinary and beautiful, but it's not a treasure. You can buy it as a souvenir.

10. You can fish. It is pure natural, there is no trace of artificial development, and naturally no one cares ~ the fish in Damuli is delicious. Although the local practices are tasteless, they taste fresh. After all, it is a cold-water fish that has grown for many years. You can cook it yourself ~

1 1. Well, I'm not sure about that either. You'd better bring more money, and you'd better change it into rubles at home. It doesn't seem convenient to change money there. It's even more inconvenient to swipe your card ~ ~

I seldom answer questions, but I was very interested when I saw this book about Lake Baikal. I stayed there for half a month and was fascinated by it. I hope these answers can help you Have fun in Lake Baikal, hehe ~ ~
