“Yakutsk is the coldest city on earth, very remote, and is built on permafrost. Go for the preserved wooly mammoth head, the fluffiest little horses, the frozen fish market where fish look like baguettes in baskets, reindeer antler velvet vodka, ice fishing, a home-cooked meal with slices of raw river fish, and definitely take a cruise to the Lena Pillars. Yakutsk is seriously cool.”
