Speaking about nature, in Russia we have lot of beautiful places. We have different climat zones. There are many lakes, huge rivers like Volga, beautiful and endless forests. But my favorite place is mountains, we have the highest mountain in Europe which is Elbrus with almost 6000 m high. I definitely recommend to visit Elbrus. In summer you can go hiking, and in winter there are many people from all over Russia and other countries who come to ski.
