A composite of the extravagant glories of old Russia and the drab legacies of the Soviet era, it's a country that both befuddles and beguiles. This is a land of snow and deadly winters, but also of rivers that meander across meadows and a midsummer sun that never sets. Its people, in the words of a Russian proverb, 'love to suffer', yet they also love to party and can be disarmingly generous and hospitable. Dangerous Territories Travellers are strongly advised against travel to Chechnya, Dagestan and neighbouring Ingushetia. Military clashes, kidnapping of aid workers and foreigners, violent crimes and muggings are prevalent. Other areas of concern include North Ossetia, Stavropol, Karachayevo-Cherkessiya and Kabardino-Balkariya. Events in all these places are difficult to gauge and can change rapidly. On-the-ground consular support regarding these destinations can be negligible or non-existent.

Switzerland > Eastern Switzerland/Liechtenstein Eastern Switzerland stretches from the shimmering waters of Lake Constance and across the hilly Appenzellerland to the Alpine landscapes of Toggenburg, the Heidiland holiday region, and the Glarnerland. Far off in the Rhine Valley is Vaduz, with its prince's castle. Cyclists will find an excellently signposted network of bicycle paths. You can ride from one fishing village to the next along the shores of Lake Constance, or scale high peaks on a mountain bike.
