After being being designated a sensitive Military Area and therefore off limits for many years, the true end of the Trans-Siberian is once again open to visitors. Contrary to what you might think, Vladivostok (a mere 9,289 kms away from Moscow) in the summer is actually quite nice. True, there is a train that runs 10,267 kms all the way to Pyongyang, but that would be another adventure.

More on trains at the best train travel sight on the web, here.
