Timeline
08:20
Grab a quick, cheap breakfast at the Railway workers canteen. It is open 24/7, so you can fuel up before the dark ends.
08:50
Walk to the Bear and monkey memorial. This is the only one left in the region. Stand by the statue and watch the sky change as the sun approaches the horizon.
09:05
Watch the sunrise. On this date, the sun rises at 09:05. The light will start to turn golden around 16:26, but the initial rise is the key moment.
09:35
Head to Café Baikalov for coffee and a sophisticated breakfast. The menu changes daily and features fish and seafood. It opens at 10:00, which is just after the sunrise moment.
Local tip
The canteen is the only place open before sunrise. The café is a nice contrast with its soft sofas in an old wooden house.
