'''Penza''' (Russian: ''_P_u_~_x_p'') is the large industrial capital of Penza Oblast in Russia.

Get in

The easiest way to get to Penza is from Moscow. A regular train (#052) departs from Kazanskiy Railway Station at about 8-30 p.m. daily. It is quite comfortable and affordable even for low-budget backpackers. In about 12 hours you will arrive at Penza's main railway station "Penza I" which is located in the very center of the city.

Get around

Penza does not have metro or trams, but the size and layout of the city make it easy to get around by bus (fare is 7 Russian Roubles, about $0.3) or taxi (fare $5-10 depending on how far you need to go and how hard you bargain with the driver). Another option is to use shuttle bus service: it is slightly more expensive, but faster and more comfortable compared to a regular bus.
