Things to do in Yakutia

Cruise along the Lena River

Perhaps, the most fascinating travel which can be made in Yakutia in summertime is cruise by steam-ship along the Lena River. The Lena is the largest river of Eastern Siberia. It runs through the picturesque mountain and flat areas and flowing into the Arctic Ocean. The most known natural sight of the Lena banks is Lenskiye columns. These are the huge steep rocks rising upwards for several stages. They have the shape of columns, spikes, towers and form a real cosmic view.
