• Pskov city and Pskov region photo gallery. Nice collection of pictures: the local Kremlin, main streets of the city and places of historical heritage. This site is maintained by Vladislav Bodnarchuk (E-mail: vlad@crp.pskov.su and vladb@mgmt.umass.edu ).
• Another server about Pskov (Russian version). This site contains a lot of interesting information: wonderfull photos of Pskov city (in particular, pictures of churches and images of icons), and photos of towns in the vicinity of Pskov, descriptions of history of Pskov and museums of this old Russian city. Now this server is accessible from outside of Russia (thanks to the guest from Australia).
