Ulan Ude
Ulan Ude is the capital of Buryatia, founded in 1666, located on trade routes between Russia, China and Mongolia. It is a very cold town, buy you should be used to the cold by now if you traveling through Russia! You might want to check out the historical merchant's mansions along the banks of the Uda River, the out-door Ethnographic Museum, and I highly recommend an opera or ballet performance at the Buryat Opera and Ballet Theater.
