There is one train per day from Moscow that stops in Torzhok. But there are frequent suburban trains to and from Tver (2-3 hours from Moscow by train), as well as bus service. The town is just 200 km from Moscow, so the drive can be achieved in even less time.
The Architectural Preserve at Vasilyovo is a short 7 km bus ride from the bus station next to Torzhok’s Pushkin Museum.
The best place to overnight, near to Torzhok, is in Tver. The best option is at the Hotel Tsentralnaya (phone 08222-381-57). A good local tourist agency is Tver Intercontact Group; they can arrange anything from homestays to local city tours (phone +7-08222-425-439, fax 902-1765, email [email protected]).
