Tula Oblast is a region in Central Russia ; it borders Oryol Oblast to the southwest, Kaluga Oblast to the west, Moscow Oblast to the north, Ryazan Oblast to the east, and Lipetsk Oblast to the southeast.
Located beyond the reach of Moscow's cosmopolitan and capitalist forces, Tula Oblast is for visitors the real Russia . The regions major tourist attractions are decidedly "Russian": Tolstoy's estate at Yasnaya Polyana and the birthplace of modern Russia in the battlefields of Kulikovo. The capital, Tula, is also a great "Russian" stop for its beautiful samovars and kremlin, and avoids the tourist hordes that descend upon Moscow's Red Square.
Outside Tula (and even within Tula), very few people understand anything but Russian .
Trains from Moscow's Kursky Station take 3 hours to arrive in Tula.
The Tula region is famous for its pryaniki (PRYA-nee-kee) — honey gingerbread cookies best eaten with tea.
Tula is the historic capital of Russia's production of samovars and these can make excellent, if expensive, souvenirs. Be sure to have good documentation of any samovar purchases because they may face strict scrutiny at customs — many irreplaceable antique samovars have been smuggled or carelessly allowed out of the country over the past century.

Ancient people began to settle in the territory of today’s Tula Oblast at the end of the Paleolithic (about 12 thousand years ago). In the early Iron Age (about 3 thousand year ago), the tribes of the Verkhneoksk archaeological culture appeared (the Balts).
In the 8th century, the Slavic tribe of Vyatichi came to this region in place of the Balts. They were engaged in cattle breeding, farming, crafts. At first, the Vyatichi paid tributes to the Khazars, and then they became part of the Old Russian state. In 907, they took part in the campaign of Prince Oleg against Tsargrad (Constantinople).
In the 12th century, the town of Dedoslavl (presumably, the present village of Dedilovo in Kireevsky district) appeared - a fortified craft and trade center, a place of gathering of the elders of the Vyatichi. By the 13th century, the smoothing of tribal features led to the disappearance of the tribal name Vyatich.
Having fallen into the sphere of influence of Kievan Rus, the territory of the Tula region for a long time remained a wild pagan land. After the collapse of Kievan Rus, this land became part of the Chernigov princedom. In the 13th century, the Mongol invasion swept through the territory of the region.
More historical facts…
In 1380, in the southeastern part of the present Tula region, at the confluence of the rivers of Nepryadva and Don, the Kulikovo battle took place, which initiated the liberation of the Russian lands from the Golden Horde yoke.
In 1503, the Tula lands became part of the Moscow Grand Duchy. In the beginning of the 16th century, the fortress of Tula was founded. In the 16th-17th centuries, it was an important fortified town located on the southern outskirts of the Moscow state.
The industrial development of the region began in the 17th century. In 1696, the Tula blacksmith Nikita Demidov built the first blast furnaces and workshops at the mouth of the Tulitsa River, which were the beginning of the development of blacksmithing in Tula.
The town became one of the centers of Russian metallurgy and metalworking. In 1712, according to the decree of Peter the Great, the State Arms Factory was established in Tula, which produced weapons for the Russian army. In 1719, the Tula region was formed. In 1777, it became a gubernia (province). At the same time, the production of samovars, gingerbread, accordions began to develop in Tula.
In 1855, the Malevskaya mine (to the south of Bogoroditsk) was put into operation, regular coal mining began in the Moscow region basin, the oldest coal mining region of Russia discovered in 1722. The development of industry in the province was facilitated by the construction of the railways: “Moscow-Kursk” in 1864-1868 and “Syzran-Vyazma” in 1870-1874.
In 1929, the Tula Governorate was abolished, its territory became part of the Central Industrial Region. In September 1937, it once again became a separate region. During the Second World War, Tula defensive and offensive operations were carried out on the territory of the Tula region.
For the courage and steadfastness shown by the defenders of Tula in the defense of the city, which played an important role in stopping the Wehrmacht offensive and subsequent defeating of enemy troops near Moscow, Tula was awarded the honorary title Hero City.
In the post-war years, the machine-building, chemical, metallurgical, and coal industries were further developed in the Tula region, research institutes and design bureaus were established.

The distance from the center of Tula to the center of Moscow is about 185 kilometers. The region has a relatively well developed transport network.
About 50% of ore deposits of the Moscow region coal basin, estimated at 1.5 billion tons, are concentrated in the Tula region. In the south-west, there are large deposits of peat. The region also has significant deposits of iron ore, strontium ores, various building materials including limestone, clay, sand, gypsum.

September 18, 2024 by Hassan. P1 Travel is a ticket vendor for events like Formula 1 and MotoGP. It has a 4.2-star rating on Trustpilot from nearly 5,000 reviews, showing positive feedback. However, some customers report problems with vacation packages and refund policies. Be cautious when booking through them.
P1 Travel Positive Reviews. The vast majority of people who use P1 Travel report a smooth and effortless transaction. For many people P1 Travel makes 'bucket list' experiences extremely simple. The website is cleanly designed and easy to use. Tickets arrive when they're supposed to, or are easy to collect.
Travel partners don't personalise their individual tickets for the group. All tickets will be named P1 Travel not the individual buyers name. They're leaving from the Netherlands to go to Tomorrowland which I believe is on a coach so there's no personalisation involved in that either I would imagine.
Bayer Leverkusan tickets. Used P1 travel for the Bayer Leverkusan v Wolfsburg match in Sept. Tickets were emailed to me about 3 days before the game. Got 4 seats together, tickets included travel to the game plus a goodie bag which consisted of a scarf and a small packet of jellies. Would definitely use again.

The seats were great and experience was seamless. They're legit. Search the sub and you'll find plenty of good reviews. Its normal for all 3rd party vendors to send the tickets about a week or two before the event. A lot of circuits send them out about a month before when you buy direct.
