Weather<\/h2>\n

\"Nizhny<\/a><\/p>\n

Nizhny Novgorod in October is especially good. The air temperature during the day warms up to 10 degrees, and at night the thermometer drops to +6 degrees. The so-called “Indian summer” pampers the city for a month, even in early November<\/a> there is practically no sub-zero temperature.<\/p>\n

There are very few rainy and cloudy days – about five days a month, weather forecasters predict precipitation.<\/p>\n

Is it cold in October<\/h2>\n

Most tourists are puzzled by the question of the weather and what kind of clothes to take with them on a short vacation. Do not worry and collect a whole suitcase of things. A spare sweatshirt, umbrella and warm socks will suffice.<\/p>\n

There are many cozy cafes in the city where you can warm yourself with hot tea and have a delicious lunch after a long walk.<\/p>\n

What to see<\/a><\/h2>\n

\"Nizhny<\/a><\/p>\n

In order to plunge into the history<\/a> and atmosphere of the autumn city at least a little, it is not necessary to come for a long time. Three days is enough to walk and get acquainted with the main places of the city.<\/p>\n

First of all, it is worth visiting the following attractions<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Nizhny Novgorod Kremlin. An old building of the 16th century stands in the very center of the city. Previously, the complex represented a military garrison and an armory, and today it is the main property of the Volga region.<\/p>\n

The cost of travel<\/h2>\n

\"Nizhny<\/a><\/p>\n

We offer you to compare the cost of a car trip “Moscow<\/a> Nizhny Novgorod” and train tickets. It is from Moscow that it is most convenient to get to Nizhny Novgorod, since the cost of a flight from other regions is significantly lower than a direct flight. After all, it is not for nothing that there is a saying: “Nizhny Novgorod is Moscow's neighbor.”<\/p>\n

Travel by car. The approximate distance of the route is 420 kilometers. With a consumption of 8 liters of fuel per 100 kilometers, we get an amount of one and a half thousand rubles. Approximately the trip will take 5-6 hours.<\/p>\n

To the mandatory expenses for gasoline, you need to add the cost of lunches and snacks. A trip together by car will be within 2-3 thousand one way. This way of transportation is interesting because you can drive past other cities and settlements and linger in places you like.<\/p>\n

Train ride. An undoubted advantage of traveling<\/a> by train is the calmness of passengers, because not everyone likes to drive a car over long distances. In addition, the railway connection is so developed that there are various options for buying tickets.<\/p>\n

You can purchase tickets both for seats (such tickets will cost from 500 rubles) and for reserved seats (the cost varies from 1.5-2 thousand rubles). The approximate travel time will be about four hours.<\/p>\n
