The whining misogyny laced throughout the record is a symptom of a wider issue: this album is essentially the sonic imprint of a massively bloated ego.

“It’s yet more evidence that Drake’s art is suffering under the strain of his obsession with churning out as much music as is physically possible. And while 21 doesn’t have the same problem, both halves of the duo are responsible for an album that had the potential to be a classic, and missed.”

10 must-see places in the Vologda Region

Vologda has some astonishing sights.

The provincial city of Vologda (300 miles north of Moscow) attracts with its fairy-tale atmosphere, and has many stunning places to visit.

1.  The Vologda Kremlin

The Vologda Kremlin.

The white-stone kremlin in Vologda’s center was founded in the mid 16th century, and is one of the city’s most popular sights. The kremlin has the former Bishop's house, where the local treasury was kept, the Resurrection Cathedral and the St. Sophia bell tower. On the high bank of the Vologda River you can see the monumental St. Sophia Cathedral – the city’s first stone church, which was built by Ivan the Terrible.

Near Kremlin Square is a house museum dedicated to Varlam Shalamov, the author of Kolyma Tales . This is where he was born and lived until 1924.  

Another remarkable place on Kremlin Square is Russia’s only Museum of Lace. Vologda lace is famous around the globe, and the museum exhibits pre-1917 clothing, as well as canvases with images of Soviet leaders and modern festive decorations. Read more about Vologda lace.  

2. Center of Folk Crafts

Reznoi Palisad Center of Folk Crafts.

The Vologda Region is famous for folk crafts: needleworks , ceramics, and woodcarving. Local masters decorate their houses with carved fences, and one such preserved building became the Reznoi Palisad Center of Folk Crafts. Now, it’s not only an exhibition of ancient crafts but also an active place for meeting local craftsmen.

3. Kirillo-Belozersky Monastery

Kirillo-Belozersky Monastery.

Founded in the late 14th century, the Kirillo-Belozersky Monastery (80 miles north of Vologda) is one of Europe’s largest monasteries, and its walls are more than two kilometers long. The citadel is located on Lake Siverskoye. Ivan the Terrible visited the monastery many times and he even thought to spend the rest of his days here. In Soviet times, the monastery became a museum, and its main task is to preserve the site’s legacy and buildings. 

4. Ferapontovo

Fresco by Dionysus with images of warriors Dmitry of Thessaloniki (left) and Mina (right) in the Nativity of the Virgin Cathedral.

Ferapontovo village (about 75 miles north of Vologda) is located on a bluff with a sweeping vista of Lake Borodava. Are lovers will enjoy a visit to the Ferapontov Monastery and its luminous frescoes made in 1502 by Andrei Rublev’s follower, Dionisius , in collaboration with his sons. The frescoes are protected from the severe local climate and still retain a rich palette of colors.

What do the famous Ferapontov frescoes look like?

The Ferapontov Monastery is surrounded by lakes and forests that convey the lyrical beauty of the Russian North.

5. Veliky Ustyug

Veliky Ustyug is the residence of Ded Moroz.

Veliky Ustyug is a town (250 miles northeast of Vologda) that in centuries past was one of the major cities in Russian North. Since 1999, Veliky Ustyug has been the residence of Russia’s Santa Claus – Ded Moroz . The residence (Votchina) is a major tourist attraction in winter holidays, and here any adult can relive his childhood. 

Each year, the local post office receives millions of letters from Russian children for Ded Moroz. Children and adults who want to write to Ded Moroz should send letters to:

6. Belozersk

The small town of Belozersk (95 miles north of Vologda) is among the oldest Slavic settlements, known since the 9th century. The town is located on Lake Beloye (White), and in the 15th century a fortress ( kremlin ) was built along with beautiful cathedrals. Thanks to Belozersk’s remote location many of its medieval buildings have been preserved.

In addition to the fortress’ historical significance, its high ramparts offer breathtaking views of the town .

7. Cherepovets

Resurrection Cathedral.

The Vologda Region’s industrial center, Cherepovets (80 miles west of Vologda) is located on the Sheksna River. With a population of 300,000, the city is known as the home of Severstal, one of Russia’s largest industrial enterprises. Nevertheless, the city has more than factories - for example, there are interesting examples of 18th-19th century architecture. The Resurrection Cathedral , the Chapel of St. Nicholas, and the Chapel of St. Philipp Arapskii have been restored and are important cultural and religious institutions.

The Kuskov museum in Totma.

Every year on July 26 the small town of Totma (112 miles northeast of Vologda) celebrates Russian America Day at the same time as Fort Ross in northern California. Why? Fort Ross was founded by Totma native Ivan Kuskov, who in 1808 led a voyage to the shores of western America. After several expeditions, Kuskov founded Fort Ross, and the colony organized a school for Russian and Native American families. He married a local woman who converted to Orthodoxy, returning with her to Totma in 1823. In 1990, the house where Kuskov spent the last months of his life became a branch of the Totma Museum Complex, which has documents and items related to the exploration of California. Today, residents of Totma and Fort Ross have a tradition of showing the tolling of the bells in the churches of Totma and Fort Ross via video link.

9. Ustyuzhna

The town of Ustyuzhna.

The town of Ustyuzhna (200 miles west of Vologda), located on the Mologa River, is known as one of the oldest centers of Russian metalworking.

The town preserved the historical center rather well, and the most remarkable work of religious art here is the richly decorated Church of the Kazan Icon of the Virgin in the town's main cemetery. It was built in the late 17th century thanks to a donation from the famous merchant, Grigory Stroganov. Another important cultural monument is the 17th century Nativity Cathedral.

10. Vytegra

The medieval town of Vytegra (190 miles northwest of Vologda) is one of the most visited places in Russia, especially attracting tourists who are interested in wooden church architecture.

The town center has substantial brick buildings dating to the turn of the 20th century, including local government offices, merchant houses, schools and churches. Some are still standing today.

History of Vologda Oblast

In the 5th-7th centuries AD, the development of this territory by the Slavic population began, which entailed the assimilation of the local Finno-Ugric tribes. The first Slavic colonists of the Vologda region were the Krivichi. In 862, the town of Beloozero was founded. This area became the arena of rivalry between the Novgorodians, who founded the towns of Veliky Ustyug, Vologda, Totma, and the Vladimir princes, who gradually subdued the region.

In 1207, this region was included in the Rostov principality, from which, in 1238, the Belozersk principality was separated. In the era of civil strife, the region was again the arena of rivalry between the Novgorod Republic, Tver and Moscow principalities. In 1273, the Tver prince Svyatoslav Yaroslavich plundered and burned Vologda. In 1352, the plague killed most of the population of Beloozero and the town itself was moved to the southern shore of Beloye Lake.

In 1389, after the Battle of Kulikovo, the Belozersk principality became part of the Moscow principality. In the 14th century, the Kirillo-Belozersky Monastery was established. In the 15th century, the Belozersky Kremlin was built. The Vologda region (mainly Velikiy Ustyug) became a foothold for Moscow expansion to the north-east and east, to the territory of Ugra (1465), Perm Territory (1472) and Vyatka (1489).

Since 1567, for three and a half years, Ivan IV often lived in Vologda, watching the construction of the fortress and the stone cathedral. The Vologda lands were of great importance in the policy of Ivan IV. A number of northern towns were included in the oprichnina. A significant place in the plans of Ivan the Terrible was occupied by Vologda, which was a kind of “gateway” to the White Sea, the Trans-Urals, Western Siberia, and Europe.

More Historical Facts…

In 1612, during the Time of Troubles, Vologda was again plundered, a lot of churches and other buildings were burned. In the 16th-17th centuries, Vologda occupied a special place in the establishment of trade relations with foreign countries. Being a convenient transit point, it attracted the attention of Dutch, English merchants.

At the turn of the 17th-18th centuries, Peter the Great paid special attention to the lands of the Russian North. He repeatedly stayed in Vologda, in the house of the Dutch merchant Gutman. In the 19th century, this stone building became the house museum of Peter I. Today, the exposition of the museum includes his clothes (caftan, pants-culottes) and posthumous mask, A. Menshikov’s cup, numerous items that characterize the era of Peter the Great.

The construction of St. Petersburg and the development of trade on the Baltic Sea significantly reduced the importance of Vologda, leaving the town away from new trade routes. In the 18th century, the Vologda gubernia (province) was created.

Most of the towns of the present Vologda region was formed during the Catherine’s administrative reform: Vytegra in 1773, Kirillov in 1776, Cherepovets in 1777, Gryazovets, Kadnikov and Nikolsk in 1780. The absence of large-scale construction of modern buildings and large enterprises has allowed them to preserve the historical appearance and spirit of the past epochs. Today, in many towns of the region, whole blocks of wooden houses decorated with carvings have survived. Some small towns are recognized as historical monuments of national importance.

Since the beginning of the 19th century, the development of lacework began. Vologda lace enjoyed great popularity, its fame quickly crossed the borders of Russia. The products of the Vologda lace-makers were highly appreciated at the Paris, Brussels and other international exhibitions.

With the opening of the shipping channels, which linked important economic centers of the country, trade moved from Vologda to Rybinsk. The significance of Vologda as a commercial center decreased. The turning point to the new economic recovery happened in the 1860s. The construction of railways, the emergence of the steam fleet had a significant impact on the development of the Vologda region.

In 1872, a railway communication between Vologda and Yaroslavl was opened, in 1898 - with Arkhangelsk, in 1905 - with St. Petersburg and Vyatka. The city, lying on the banks of the navigable river, was also in the center of the intersection of important railroads. In 1881, the first dairy factory in the Russian Empire was opened in the region. Quite quickly, the brand “Vologda butter” gained great popularity.

In 1918, for 5 months, Vologda became the “diplomatic capital of Russia,” a place where embassies and missions of the 11 largest countries of the world were located. September 23, 1937, Vologda oblast was formed in its present borders.

During the Second World War, military operations were not conducted in the territory of the Vologda region. That’s why the local monuments of the cultural and historical heritage were not damaged or destroyed.

In 1955, Cherepovets became a major center for the production of cast iron on the basis of rich deposits of iron ores of the Kola Peninsula. Also the largest chemical enterprise in the country producing fertilizers was opened in Cherepovets.

This powerful industry, built in Cherepovets after the war, helped the Vologda region, even in times of crisis, to remain one of the most prosperous territories in Russia. Today, every fifth ton of Russian rolled metal is produced in Cherepovets. JSC “PhosAgro-Cherepovets” is the largest producer of phosphorus-containing fertilizers, phosphoric and sulfuric acids in Europe.
