Outside the Arab countries Russia is the only country in the world that is not really part of any of the 7 continents (North America, South America, Europe, Africa, Asia, Oceania, Antartica).
Siberia is in Asia, Russia is its own thing.
Probably just about anyone has heard of Moscow and St. Petersburg. Because of that, I want to know what are other Russians cities that are known among non-Russians besides the big two! Please list up to 10 so I can have a better idea which Russian cities (other than the big two) are most known outside of the country. Thanks.
