'''Novosibirsk''' (Russian: Новосибирск) is [[Russia]]'s third-largest city, after [[Moscow]] and [[St. Petersburg|Saint Petersburg]], and the largest city of [[Siberia]].
The city's name is often abbreviated by locals as ''NovasibNovosib''. == Hitchhiking in == If you were lucky enough to get a transit car passing by Novosibirsk via ''Severnyi ob'ezd'' but you still need to visit a city ask your driver to stop near police checkpoint and walk it the west a bit to busstop ''Poselok Sadovyi'' on the norhern side of the road. Take bus 1153 or any other (they all goes at the same place) to metro ''Zaeltcovskaya''. This is the only way to get into the city via public transportation from ''Severnyi ob'ezd''.
== Hitchhiking out ==
=== West towards [[Omsk]] ===
From the central train station, take minibus #1122 towards the airport and get out at the second last bus stop ''Puteprovod'', located at a huge roundabout already out of town. The bus rides is about 30min, best is to ask the driver to let you out at the end of the huge roundabout, there walk to the left and start hitching just at the beginning of the road towards [[Omsk]] (M51).
=== East towards Yurga, [[Kemerovo]], [[Tomsk]] ===
=== South towards [[Barnaul]] ===
Hitching out towards Barnaul is a bit complicated. You can try many places along rail road using local trains.
