In a nutshell
A complicated but beautiful city in summer, ice hell in winter
JessieLang Says: They have a wonderful State Opera & Ballet Theater, built in 1945. It is the largest in Russia—the main stage theater seats 2,000. It is only open from Nov. to June. People probably don’t want to be inside in the summer. The cloakroom area is huge—all those heavy coats,...
Nuclei Says: One of the most distinguishable structures in Novosibirsk. This cathedral was named after Grand Prince Alexander Nevsky. The orthodox cathedral is also separable by its stone construction with red bricks and neo-Byzantine style which is not common in Siberia. The dom is...

New York Pizza: NYP the american Pizzas in Siberia
Klod5 Says: Le restaurant fait partie d'une chaîne. Tous les restaurants de cette enseigne sont à Novosibirsk ou Akademgorodock et appartiennent à un émigré américain, qui est venu ici, avec son épouse, originaire de Novosibirsk. En 15 an, il s'est construit un véritable empire. The...
Il Patio: Not a typical chain restaurant
Nuclei Says: In Russia or in CIS countries, Il Patio is a chain of Italian restaurants. However, the quality you get from Il Patio is much higher than any average chain restaurant. I have been to some Il Patio's here and there and the one in Novosibirsk was the far best one, in terms of...
Nuclei Says: Even it is named as a cafe, it is not, it is typical Mexican restaurant. Nicely decorated with some Mexican style garnish. Some staff speak English. Reservation may be needed during weekends. I tried fajitas and mushroom soup. Fajitas was average but I liked the soup.
Trevelers Kofe Klub: nice place to take a coffee
jorgejuansanchez Says: It is not cheap, about 60 roubles a capuchino, while in the ordinary cafeterias costs about 20 roubles, but the place is wonderful, in the central boulevard, in front of a chapel, and you see people walking all the time from the first floor. They serve coffee from Guatemala,...
Novosibirsk Opera & Ballet: Fantasy in Siberia
Nuclei Says: One of the best places not only in Novosibirsk but also throughout Siberia. Very big hall and decoration makes you feel you are in 18th century. If you consider there is nothing much to do in Novosibirsk, paying a visit to this georgous opera and ballet is a good option....
melek02 Says: Novosibirsk is just in the middle of Trans-Siberian railway, actually town was founded here because the railroad was built. Way from Moscow takes about 2 days, it depend on the train, but anyway something between 46h and 50h usually. The best train to travel on this rout is...
melek02 Says: Novosibirsk has big international airport, which serves international and domestic flights. There are 2 terminals (domestic and international) in Novosibirsk airport; 5 min walk one from another. You can reach Novosibirsk first of all from Moscow, around 20 flights per day,...
yumyum Says: In the central part of Novosibirsk there are several markets to be found. The markets consist of little huts. But on the other hand there is a very modern supermarket at the beginning of Vokzalnaya magistral coming from the railway station on your right.
Klod5 Says: Novosibirsk Regional Studies Museum is one of the major museums of Siberia.Currently it's collection contains more than 170,000 artifacts. These illustrate 150,000 years of Siberian history, and describe the native culture and population. address: 630099. Russia....
ALWAYS CARRY SUFFICIENT TRAVEL INSURANCE
DennyP Says: NOVOSIBIRSK When I was formulating my journey around the world by train one of the most important items on my list was Travel Insurance. Looking at the amount of visas need for so many different countries cost is always a priority when travelling ..Travel insurance is one of...
Anya_D Says: Traces of human activity are everywhere. The most disgusting ones are the oil spills, which result from pipeline ruptures, inaccurate development, absence of attention of oilmen to safety rules when drilling, and many other similar reasons. You could see the consequences of...
Anya_D Says: In the middle of 20th century huge oil and gas deposits were found in West Siberia. Since then the region has been literally suffering the invasion of oil extracting companies. Technologies at first were not so advanced and safe as now (even now they are not perfect!), and...
yumyum Says: On this trip I took an older version of the Lonely Planet Russia guide book with me. For travelling the Transsiberian my choice would be the Transsib one from Trailfinders. My travel mate had that one.
Anya_D Says: Khanty and Mansi are the native peoples who live in the north of West Siberia. There is also a nationality called 'nentsy', but it belongs more to the eastern part. They still live as 1000 years ago: use tents (Yurts) as houses, support their living by reindeer herding,...
daisuke_jp Says: HK "Sibir" Novosibirsk now plays in KHL (Kontinental Hockey League). Tha arena is accessible from metro station "Zaelcovskaya" by foot or bus, and the ticket costs RUB140-450 subject to location. I went to watch a game with Omsk "Abangard" where Jaromir Jagr plays. It's...
daisuke_jp Says: FC "Sibir" Novosibirsk belongs to 1. Div. in Russia (second to "Premier League"). Their stadium "SPARTAK" is located in city center and its capacity is approx. 12,000. Seems it rarely gets full and you can buy tickets on matchday at the stadium (upto RUB200).In Aug. 2008,...
yumyum Says: There is an internet center just off Vokzalnaya magistral. Coming from Ploshad Lenina it's the first alley on your right. It's downstairs. When I was there, I only had trouble it was never working properly, so I gave up. Let's hope that they improved by now.
jorgejuansanchez Says: The best interne in town! The whole night, from 10 PM to 7 AM will cost you only 100 rubles. They also serve soups (Chinese) and drinks, including chai and coffee, for a few rubles. You can even sleep on the table. There is a toilet too. It is best to spend the night there...

Novosibirsk - a Soviet style giant
I came to Novosibirsk on my Transsib trip in autumn 2004 from Moscow to Vladivostok. I didn't desparately want to stop here but my travel mate wanted to have a look before heading to Tomsk, so after...
Hello to everybody! I bet you never thought of Siberia as a touristic destiantion! Welcome to Novosibirsk, my home city!
It's situated on Ob river, in the geographical center of Russia (to mark this very place there's the little pretty church of S.Nicolaj). Rather young (founded in 1893 during the building of the...
I've heard for years that people were "sent" to Siberia, but no one ever just goes there. My curiosity got the best of me, so I had to take a side trip from Moscow to see what it was like. After a few...
