To the north of the Uglich Kremlin there is a deep channel of the Stone Stream, where cruise ships are moored. Victory Park is located there on the bank of the Volga. It has shopping malls where local artisans offer their goods. Since cruise ships moor at the piers of this park every day in summer, it is always crowded here.
In the center of Victory Park there is an Obelisk of Glory dedicated to the residents of Uglich who died during WWII. Nearby there are children`s attractions. From the bank of the Stone Stream there is a beautiful view of the churches of the Uglich Kremlin. On the shore is the Church of Prince Dmitry on the Blood, and behind it rise the domes of the Transfiguration Cathedral.
The entrance to Victory Park is located near Assumption Square, which for centuries was the main trade area in front of the Uglich Kremlin. Buildings of the 19th century have been preserved on and around the square. Some of them now house museums. There is a Museum of Urban Life, a Gallery of Orthodox art, a Museum of the History of Russian vodka and others.
