Dmitrov

Dmitrov, just north of Moscow, weaves ancient kremlin walls, serene canals, and onion-domed churches into a tableau of old-world Russia. Filmmakers are drawn by its medieval silhouette and tranquil riverside—ideal for historical dramas or quiet fantasies. Fun fact: founded by Yuri Dolgoruky, Dmitrov once rivaled the might of Moscow, leaving echoes of epic intrigue in its charming streets.
