If you fly out of hometown on Friday after the working week, then on Sunday evening you will have time to return, and sleep, and gain strength before the working week. Of course, if we are not talking about the nearest suburbs, then the best way to get to the city of the "weekend" will be a plane.
Astrakhan
You need to go to Astrakhan for heat, food and photographs.
The Astrakhan heat is a temperature in excess of 30 degrees Celsius in the shade. It would be unbearable if it were not for the opportunity to go to the Volga to watch the sailing regatta (which does not take place every weekend - stay tuned if you want to admire the ships).
kaspyinfo.ruThey go to the Volga with cameras to photograph lotuses blooming on the water in July-August. Local travel companies offer many programs, during which you will have time to admire the flowers and appreciate the national cuisines of the steppe peoples.
The camera must also be taken for trips to the dunes. A two-hour drive from Astrakhan is Big Brother - a huge sand dune in a desert area. You can get to it only by off-road vehicles. Sands, round-headed lizards, powerful machines ... In such an entourage, a photo session in the style of "Mad Max" suggests itself. Dust storms also occur in Astrakhan. Fortunately, they are not as dangerous as they are shown in the movies.
maxik2k.livejournal.com Well, a little more about the kitchen. The famous Astrakhan sturgeon, which is served on farms and in restaurants, is much, much tastier than chilled fish from supermarkets.
It will take you a little more than two hours to get to the Caspian capital by S7 Airlines. And what to do next - admire the Astrakhan Kremlin, plunge into the Volga or go to a fish restaurant - it's up to you!
Saint Petersburg
“I spent this weekend in St. Petersburg” - the phrase sounds great even for residents of St. Petersburg. If any travel magazine or resource makes another rating of the best vacation destinations, St. Petersburg will be there. If international foundations and cultural organizations announce the top of the most interesting and valuable locations, St. Petersburg will be there. Fly to St. Petersburg and figure out why for yourself.
Where to get, decide for yourself. Those who prefer to listen to the sound of wheels can choose a new one double-decker train, the cost of tickets for which starts from 1,300 rubles. But you need to buy them in advance, otherwise either tickets will not be available, or the cost will be exorbitant. For those who value time: a flight from Moscow to St. Petersburg will take an hour and a half, while from Friday to Saturday at 00:05 there is a flight from S7 Airlines, which immediately after landing will allow you to see one of the wonders of St. Petersburg - the famous white nights. Hurry up, the lightest nights fall on June 20-23.
Telling what Peter looks like and what you must see in him is like joking about curbs and a loaf of bread: everyone has already heard about this a hundred times.
Therefore, advice from Lifehacker. When you arrive in St. Petersburg, do not act according to the program. Just walk around and look around. When you see something interesting (and you will see it for sure), just come up and look closer. The Northern Capital has enough resources for tourists to turn two days into a completely unforgettable weekend.
It is better to start walking along the embankments and Nevsky Prospekt in the morning, from six o'clock. Get up early and tune in not to go to sleep soon. St. Petersburg romance works around the clock.
Rostov-on-Don
You should come to Rostov for a few days for ... discoveries. The trip is especially useful for children who are distinguished by their curiosity and desire for everything new. You can go on a trip with your family or with a group of friends. The flight will take no more than two hours, which will not tire even the smallest tourists. Moreover, its cost will be lower if you buy tickets for a group of four or more: such a summer offer is available from S7 Airlines.
You need to start with the interactive Science Museum "Laboratory". It is, of course, designed for children, but if in your school in physics lessons the teacher was too lazy to show experiments or there were not enough reagents in chemistry, then you can catch up.
You can also combine entertainment with education in the Rostov Museum of Cosmonautics, the Natural Science Museum and in the Center for Rare Animals (where even bison live).
Having seen what miracles science works, go to see the results at the Museum of Railway Engineering of the North Caucasus railroad... There are more than 50 carriages and locomotives, you can get to this beauty by a steam locomotive from the 40s. All equipment is in the public domain, get ready for discoveries and gorgeous pictures.
volzd.ru Having mastered the rails, you can fly. At the aeroclub just a few kilometers from the city, you can order a sightseeing flight over the Don and Rostov.
Stunning pictures can be taken without leaving the center of Rostov-on-Don. The federal monument Paramonovskie Warehouses is an abandoned building built in the 19th century. Now it has been completely conquered by the springs and springs that feed the Don. The warehouses are known for constant water temperatures in winter and summer, green grass under the snow, and a large number of photographers.
Volgograd
This city is called the most Soviet. Not surprising, given the number of museums and monuments dedicated to the Battle of Stalingrad and the Great Patriotic War. Going to Volgograd and not looking at how the complex of monuments on the Mamayev Kurgan looks like with night illumination is nonsense. By the way, the cost of an S7 Airlines flight will be from 4,300 rubles one way, including all taxes.
A distinctive feature of excursions and exhibitions: it is not boring. In Volgograd, history is appreciated and knows how to present it. For example, in the form of a historical reconstruction, and not only the events of the Second World War. If you check the Volgograd sites before the weekend, then don't miss the next festival.
In the city itself, there is something to admire: traditionally beautiful, like all Volga cities, an embankment, a huge river station and a unique tram, which either hides under the ground, then goes again on the surface.
welcomevolgograd.com It is worth flying to Volgograd to get to salt lake Elton. Everything is there: salt, mud, mineral water, steppe landscapes and salt marshes, streams, rivers and shallow waters. Unforgettable, that's for sure.
Kaliningrad
When St. Petersburg is already walked along and across, and the desire to touch the ancient romance has not yet faded away, take a ticket to Kaliningrad. In summer, the charming Königsberg, as the city was called until 1946, is even easier to visit as subsidized domestic fares have recently been introduced. S7 offers round-trip tickets from Moscow from RUB 7,600 with all fees. Agree, almost every traveler wants to plunge into the European atmosphere without a visa and without a tiring flight. Geography and history deserve special attention, but if you want to get out of the standard program, then look through the posters.
Kaliningrad hosts a huge number of festivals, concerts and performances, for which it is worth taking a plane ticket. Walk along the picturesque streets during the day, have fun at night.
There is a sea in Kaliningrad! Not too warm, but on the shore you can look for amber. True, the chances of finding something appear only after a strong storm, when the mineral is raised by waves from the bottom of the sea. But you can try!
If you don't want to return without amber, get to the place of its extraction in the village of Yantarnoye, for tourists there is a special program during which you can search for stones right on the territory of the deposit.
rg.ru Kaliningraders and tourists walk around natural park Curonian Spit. If you believe the reviews, many were lucky enough to look not only at the sand dunes and curved trees, but also at the local fauna.

Deauville village
Deauville cottage village is located on the coast forest lake... What makes this place special is not only the proximity to the capital (only 10 kilometers to Moscow), but also the magnificent landscape and architecture of the buildings. The French city of Deauville became the prototype of the village, so all residential buildings were designed according to the sketches of Western architects and made in the style of buildings of the late 19th - early 20th centuries.
On the territory there is a restaurant and a cafe, a fitness center and a SPA center, shops, children's and sports grounds, as well as a beach. Entry to the village is free and if you do not stay overnight, you will get a very budget trip. And so renting a cottage - about 400 thousand rubles a month.
Lytkarinsky quarry
The lake was formed on the site of a sand quarry for a glass factory in the city of Lytkarino. The work was stopped in the 70s, after which the quarry began to be filled with groundwater. However, now the extraction of sand has resumed: a special floating dredger lifts the sand from the bottom and flushes it out in a specially designated place.
In summer, white sand, pine trees and clear water attract many tourists from Moscow, since the lake is located only 35 kilometers from the capital and the region. Near the quarry - Tomilinsky forestry park. This is a specially protected site, as the forest is home to over 25 species of birds, and about 300 species of plants can be found here. Some are listed in the Red Book.

Abandoned tunnel of "secret" physicists
If you go along the Simferopol highway towards Protvino, then after 12 kilometers you can go to one of the most mysterious Soviet buildings: to the particle accelerator or the so-called hadron collider.
Work on the construction of the tunnel began in 1983. It is 21 kilometers long and 5.5 meters in diameter, just like in the metro. The depth is from 20 to 60 meters. The similarity with the metro is complemented by the fact that every one and a half kilometers to the main accelerator tunnel are adjacent underground stations for the placement of large-sized equipment.
In 1994, the first section was put into operation, an underground canal with a length of 2.7 kilometers. The old accelerator served as the first accelerating stage for the collider. The channel was equipped with electromagnetic and vacuum systems, as well as equipment for observing the beam.
After the completion of the main tunnel, work on the creation of the accelerator complex was completely stopped due to lack of funds.

We all have favorite places to walk. What about those parts of the city you've never been to? Weekends are a great opportunity to sign up for an excursion, go to the local history museum, or just wander through unfamiliar streets.
2. Gather friends
True, in the cold season, one does not always want to walk under the snow and a piercing wind. The way out is to gather your friends. Just like that, for no reason. Better yet, to invent this reason: a rehearsal for the New Year, the birthday of the emperor of Japan, the release of a new episode of your favorite TV series. Are there any ideas for themed parties?
3. Disassemble and sell old things
Many houses have a bunch of retro junk gathering dust, which can either be donated to those in need, or sold profitably on Avito or eBay. And now it's time to do it. In the meantime, take apart, indulge in memories.
4. Arrange a photo session
Days fly by and you can't even remember what you did last weekend? Try to capture every pleasant moment in your life in a photo.
Pick something sophisticated and beautiful, buy everything you need from the store and get started. Try to decorate the dish like in a restaurant, light the candles that have been gathering dust in the closet since last New Year, mix an unusual cocktail. The weekend is a holiday that is always with you.
6. Spend time with children
A weekend with children is a good chance to return to childhood for a short while and not be considered an infantile eccentric. Go to the new cartoon in the cinema, to the children's play, to the zoo, planetarium, oceanarium, to the museum of entertaining science, toys or sweets (yes, not all museums are dedicated to boring things). If you do not have your own children, you can "borrow" them from friends or relatives.
7. Take care of your health
Think about what you would like to change in yourself, what in your body gives you the most inconvenience, what doctors have recommended to you before. And then you can either go to the gym or choose exercises for yourself.
8. Build a collection
And it doesn't matter what it will be: a herbarium, a collection of minerals, insects or cups. Creating a collection is not necessarily an expensive endeavor. The same plants and stones are easy to find literally under your feet.
9. Make a family tree
This is also a great occasion to chat with distant relatives whom you have not called for a long time. There are resources on the Internet that will help you find ancestors. What if no one knew, and you are a count?
Retire in silence with a good book. And if you don't feel like spending money on new books, try raiding the nearest bookcrossing shelves. Surely there is something to your liking. Just don't forget to leave something on the shelf too.
The task is extremely simple: go into a bar, have a glass of beer or a shot of something stronger, and move towards another drinking establishment. All this, of course, in the company of friends. You can continue either until you lose the ability to move, or until you run out of money.
12. Learn something new
V large cities full of courses and coaches to teach you just about anything. And if you don't want to spend money on teachers, you can be patient and learn a new skill with the help of guides from the Internet.
13. Go geocaching
Geocaching is a world-class quest. Geocachers place capsules in various places and leave instructions on how to find "treasures" on their website. To find the "treasure", you need to solve the riddle, and to solve the riddle, you need to know well the history of the place in which it is hidden. There are probably at least a couple of such "treasures" in your city. As soon as you become more proficient in their search, you can begin to lay new capsules yourself.
14. Improve the interior
Why not rearrange the furniture? It's time to change something in this life. And on weekends, there is just time to decorate your home and make the atmosphere more comfortable.
15. Place a time capsule
Pack the little things that you have memories of in a box, write a letter to yourself in 5, 10, or 20 years, and shove it somewhere far away. It is not even necessary to bury the time capsule in the ground; it is enough to seal the box so that it cannot be opened without tearing it open and put it in a far corner.
16. Arrange a movie marathon
Pick three of your favorite TV shows or movies you've long wanted to get to and watch them non-stop. Popcorn, pizza and other goodies will complete the experience.
You can go to a farm outside the city, to a petting zoo, to a pet store, or just to friends who have a pet. The sea of positive is provided.
18. Make something with your own hands
Handmade items are valued much more than factory items, especially in the era of the mass market. You can start with greeting cards, soap, candles - all of which do not require any special skills or special artistic talent. And there, maybe, it will turn out to make money on crafts.
19. Take a trip
There are many interesting things in neighboring cities too! Museums, estates and simply beautiful historical buildings are just waiting for the moment when you get to them.
20. Start keeping a diary
21. Become a gardener
You can arrange a small flower bed near the house and rejoice every time you pass it. And in the cold season - try to grow something on your windowsill.
In the summer, the parks are full of open dance lessons: they provide an opportunity to move around and meet new people. In addition, dance schools offer free trial lessons throughout the year. If you don’t like it, you don’t lose anything.
23. Organize your photos
Select photos that are really important for you and order a printout in a photo studio. No matter what they say, this method of preserving memories is both more pleasant and more reliable than gigabytes of photo archive in computer memory. And you can make a photo album yourself.
24. Do charity work
The clean-up work ceases to be a tedious obligation if you organize it yourself. You can also become a volunteer at a shelter, help your disabled neighbors, go to donate blood and incite friends for all this. Help people and feel like a good person.
25. Relax
And that means more than just lying on the couch all day. For quality relaxation, it is better to master the meditation technique or yoga. Or, at worst, soak up a warm and fragrant bath.
