Holidays in Murmansk

The Charm of Murmansk

Murmansk is a unique city in northern Russia. It attracts visitors with its rugged landscapes and rich history. Here you can see the Northern Lights and feel the true grandeur of the Arctic.

Main landmarks for your trip

When planning a visit to the north, take note of iconic places such as Five Corners Square, the heart of the city and a convenient starting point for experiencing its atmosphere. Do not miss Murmansk Port and the embankment of Semyonovskoye Lake, where scenic views open up. History enthusiasts will be interested in the Alyosha Memorial and the Northern Fleet Museum. All of these landmarks will help you get your bearings easily and put together a rewarding itinerary for exploring the region.

What to see in the region

The region draws attention with the unique nature of the Kola Peninsula: the Northern Lights, polar landscapes and tundra create a one-of-a-kind atmosphere. Fans of active holidays will appreciate trips to Teriberka, where you can see the harsh Barents Sea and mysterious Arctic beaches. It is also worth visiting Sami ethnic villages to learn about the culture of the indigenous peoples of the North and try local cuisine.

In Murmansk, you can discover an amazing world of northern flavours. In cosy cafes and modern restaurants, you will be offered dishes made from venison, fresh fish, crab and seafood delicacies, all famous for their rich taste and freshness. Here it is worth trying traditional Sami and Pomor specialities — frozen sliced fish, kalitki pastries, fish soup and pies with fillings made from local berries. The city's dining venues often combine a cosy atmosphere with an emphasis on using local products. Many places surprise guests with signature interpretations of classic recipes, perfectly suited for discovering authentic northern dishes.
