About Tver
Russians usually say"Tver-v Moskvu dver"(Tver is a door to Moscow). Since Saint Petersburg was founded, Tver has been a critical transit city on the road between two major cities. The main waterway for commerce in the region, the Volga, also passes through the city. Tver was famous for its merchants. One of them, Afanasiy Nikitin, reached India and was the first one of the first Europeans (afterMarco Poloand Niccolò de' Conti) to travel to and document his visit to that land. He described his trip in a narrative known asThe Journey Beyond Three Seas(Khozheniye za tri morya).
