Pskov has a real heritage reason: medieval churches, fortress walls, and a borderland history that sits apart from Moscow or St. Petersburg. If it ever becomes practical, the reason to go is architecture at a smaller scale.
Do not treat Pskov as a current travel recommendation. In July 2026, the U.S. State Department listed Russia at Level 4, Do Not Travel, with wrongful detention and limited consular-support concerns among the risks. The architecture matters, but the current risk frame should drive planning.
