Samara Embankment
Самарская набережная
A roughly 5-kilometre riverside promenade along the Volga, linking sandy beaches, sculptures and cafés, the living room of Samara.
Samara Embankment runs about 5 km along the left bank of the Volga and was built in several stages. In summer, the lower level becomes an open city beach, while the upper level has tree-lined promenades, cycle paths, cafés and sculptures. Across the river, you can see the Zhiguli Mountains. In the evening, locals walk, swim and watch the sunset in a relaxed atmosphere. You can take a river boat from the river terminal here to Shiryayevo or to the beach on the opposite bank. Entry is free, and several flights of steps connect it to the city, so you can link it with Victory Square and the Radiya Monument for a walking route.
