        Rostov region is the land of rich and glorious history, generous nature, peculiar Cossack culture, talented and hospitable people. The Don region has a rich historic and cultural heritage, being one of the most attractive tourism objects in Russian Federation.

       Russian and foreign tourists, traveling across the region, learn the rich historic past and the contemporary life of the steppe region, its places of interest, poetic legends and peculiarities of the Don Cossacks, inhabiting small settlements, called the Cossack villages.

      The tourism sector development began in Rostov region since the 1980th of the previous century, nowadays, one of the most peculiar regions of Russia offers to tourists and guests a rich variety of interesting, remarkable tours.

      Mild and warm climate, fertile soil, rich resources of mineral waters and therapeutic muds, all these create wonderful conditions for recreation and treatment.

      The tourists, fond of nature, should visit the northern districts of the Don land. The remoteness from large industrial centers defines the ecological cleanness of the districts. The local natural complex is unique and untouched by the civilization: the cleanest sand of the Don beaches, crystal pure water, multiple preserved lakes, pine and floodplain forests.

      By no means, the most fascinating and romantic journey across the Don land is the days-long riding tour on the famous Don horses. The riding routes are elaborated and provided by many Rostov tour agencies.

      Fishing and hunting on the Don land is also very popular among tourists. Special tours for those, who like to sit with a fishing rod or take a walk with a rifle, are also included into the gentleman service package, offered by the majority of local tour firms.

      The contemporary Rostov region goes back to its merchant traditions, being the modern and comfortable center for business tourism. The old Cossack saying goes: “The guests are welcomed on the Don land”. The Don land hospitality was famous for centuries. If you wish to enjoy the old Cossack traditions, breathe in the clear air, sit with a fishing rod by a lake or go boating at the Don river, taste the famous Cossack fish soup, splendid Don wines, listen to old melodious Cossack songs, welcome to the Quiet Don Land.
