Been partying too much after work? Desperate for a break and a few quiet nights? Derbent has your name all over it. It sits among the forests of Republic of Dagestan — nice and off the well-worn tourist trail. (We reckon you'll feel so relaxed, you'll be under the blankets by sunset!)

Is there anything more satisfying than sipping on an icy pint of beer topped off with a frothy, white head? Satiate your thirst and rub shoulders with a few of the locals over some Baltika Premium Lager.

Knock down that old language barrier by memorising a few expressions in the local tongue. You'll gain a more enriching experience and some new friends while you're at it! Firstly, have a go at saying 'Dobroe utro!'. This translates as 'good morning'. 'Spasibo!', which means 'thank you', is also rather common.
