WAS RUSSIA FOUNDED HERE?! 🇷🇺

Everyone knows about the Kremlin in Moscow, but did you know one of Russia’s most famous Kremlins is actually in Veliky Novgorod? This city has an ancient history that even includes the vikings! ⚔️ And during Tucker Carlson’s famous interview with Putin, the Russian president made sure to mention this city. Why did he do that? Is it because this is really Russia’s birthplace? I decided to go and see for myself. Watch as I uncover Russia’s history, and touch the Kremlin walls that were once completely destroyed by the Nazis. I also visit Russia’s most ancient cathedral - Saint Sophia’s Cathedral. A beauty to behold in Eastern Orthodoxy. I also have a taste of some local Russian food which includes…moose?! Veliky Novgorod is truly an impressive city to see, and I hope you will enjoy discovering its glory together with me! ⚔️ Music in the church thanks to: Stay up to date on my adventures, don’t forget to like 👍 & subscribe! 🔔 If you’d like to support me ❤️ 💌 For collaborations or inquiries: sashameetsrussia@ 📸 — for more content and behind the scenes of living in Russia 🎬 @sashameetsrussia - extra videos about my life in Russia 00:00 Where are we going?! 0:50 Russian night train journey 01:26 Veliky Novgorod! ⚔️ 02:28 What did we find inside the Kremlin? 02:51 Monument Millennium of Russia! 03:42 Tucker Carlson & Putin talked about this?! 04:22 Saint Sophia’s Cathedral ☦️ 05:23 Nazis destroyed this Kremlin… 06:17 Inside Russia’s most ancient cathedral! 07:13 The cross was stolen! 07:37 Eating MOOSE?! 🦌 09:15 Best place to take photos?! 📸 10:17 Russia’s best Kremlin? 🇷🇺 10:55 VIKINGS were here! 11:38 Follow along for more adventures ❤️
