Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
Theatre
Opera and Ballet Theatre
The theatre’s large body and dome create a monumental landmark in central Novosibirsk. The building can be viewed from the square; attending an opera or ballet is a separate activity linked to the programme.
Museum
Novosibirsk Art Museum
The museum’s art collections include icons spanning the sixteenth to the early twentieth century. Works collected in the region give the visit a local connection alongside temporary exhibitions.
Animal park
Novosibirsk Zoological Park
The polar-bear photograph shows one of the zoo’s animal areas. A visit needs to follow the sectors actually open, without promising animals in the same location or displaying the behaviour captured in an image.
Religious building
Alexander Nevski Cathedral
The Alexander Nevsky Cathedral’s brick facades and domes form a religious landmark in Novosibirsk. Arches and distinct building volumes can be read from outside, contrasting with the theatre’s large-scale architecture.
