A landscaped embankment is near the wall of the Prison Castle on the high bank of the river Irtysh. It begins at Sverdlovsky lane, by it you can get to the embankment from the Red Square, then go around the Prison Castle and the Governor`s House and comes to the Renterei and Sophia Cathedral.

A beautiful rotunda is near Sverdlovsky lane. Many residents of Tobolsk and the guests of the city come to it to admire the views of the Irtysh. It is especially beautiful there at sunset.

Having admired the sunset over the Irtysh running below at the foot of 50 meter slope of Alafeyskaya mountain, you can have a walk on the embankment towards the Governor`s House. From there you can have beautiful views of the Lower Town.
