It is worth walking from Kremlin along one of the main historic streets of the city – local Arbat. It is here where you can feel the atmosphere of Kazan: the street is all pedestrian, there are several cultural points located on it – for example, The Monastery of Saint John and the theatre named after Kachalov. Here you can also find some other places of interest: carriage of Catherine the Great, monument to the Cat of Kazan (Elizabeth, Empress of Russia, glorified this representative of local fauna, when having asked why there were no mice in Kazan, found out about specially trained “fight” cats-mousers). And in case you are not in a mood of sightseeing, you can go shopping (here you will also find several boutiques) or have lunch in any of numerous cafes.
