When I first came to Russia, I only knew that I was sitting on a train from Moscow to St. Petersburg. I dont know that this ancient road was called the emperors road. There are countless villages and cities on the road that are famous for their resting feet Tor. Zik is one of the oldest cities. It is even older than the small city that was once built by merchants in Moscow. It is beautiful and quiet. It is along the old bridge. The Volga River in the winter is half frozen and half of the water. The mallard is condensed in the soft snow. The warm daylight at noon is still snowy in March, but the sun is ahead of the spring.
