So we had an afternoon and one night in Irkutsk on Monday before we left Russia for Mongolia. This city of 600,000 people is the Capital of it’s Region and is the furthest City to the East in Siberia. Ksenia gave us a 2 hour tour of the City and there are some photos from our walk below.
In the evening we decided that after two nights of dumplings and soup at the farm house we needed a solid ‘normal’ evening out so we decided to walk 5 minutes from our hotel to what is called the Irkutsk ‘Trendy Quarter’! Harat’s Irish Pub was our venue and we thoroughly enjoyed Beef Burritos, Fries and Harat’s own brews, Stout for John and Lager for Janet, served by a couple of very friendly, highly tattooed Russian barmen. Retiring for a night in a comfortable bed in our very nice hotel we were ready for the Trans-Mongolian on Tuesday morning.もっと詳しく
