I have made a short list of books that came first to my mind. It is very far from being complete, I will probably take time to expand it, if needed. I included some books that exist both in Russian and English. I give Russian titles, if you are interested in the original versions.

Some of them are not advanced (e.g. Viro-Ivanov-Netsvetaev-Kharlamov and Intuitive Topology by Prasolov), but you will hopefully see it from their titles and tables of contents. I also tried to add links to MatSciNet reviews.

  • Viro, Ivanov, Netsvetaev, Kharlamov, Elementary topology. Problem textbook [MR2444949] (Виро О. Я., Иванов О. А., Харламов В. М., Нецветаев Н. Ю., Задачный учебник по топологии)
  • Prasolov, Intuitive Topology [MR1310779] (В. В. Прасолов, Наглядная топология)
  • Vassiliev, Introduction to Topology [MR1816237] (Васильев В.А., Введение в топологию)
  • Rokhlin, Fuchs, Beginner’s Course in Topology [MR0759162] (Рохлин В.А., Фукс Д.Б., Начальный курс топологии)
  • Fomenko, Fuchs, Homotopical Topology [MR0873943] (Фоменко А.Т., Фукс Д.Б., Курс гомотопической топологии)
  • Prasolov, Elements of Homology Theory [MR2313004] (Прасолов В. В., Элементы теории гомологий)
  • Prasolov, Elements of Combinatorial and Differential Topology [MR2233951] (Прасолов В. В., Элементы комбинаторной и дифференциальной топологии)
  • Novikov, Fomenko, Basic Elements of Differential Geometry and Topology [MR1135798] (Новиков С.П., Фоменко А.Т., Элементы дифференциальной геометрии и топологии)
  • Fomenko, Mishchenko, A Short Course in Differential Geometry and Topology [MR2531914] (Мищенко А.С., Фоменко А.Т., Краткий курс дифференциальной геометрии и топологии)
  • Dubrovin, Fomenko, Novikov, Modern Geometry ― Methods and Applications [MR0736837, MR0807945, MR1076994] (Дубровин Б.А., Новиков С.П., Фоменко А.Т., Современная геометрия, Методы и приложения) — I think there also exist French, Spanish, and Italian translations
  • Postnikov, Lectures in Geometry [MR0890748, MR0887104, MR938953, MR0685757, MR1824853] (Постников М.М., Лекции по геометрии)
  • The volumes General Topology I, II, III (for original texts, check mathnet.ru)
  • The volumes Topology I. General Survey (translation of a survey by Novikov; see the original Russian text here) and Topology II. Homotopy and Homology. Classical Manifolds (translations of surveys by Viro and Fuchs; original Russian texts: 1, 2, 3)

Personally, I recommend the very last item, which is a collection of great surveys, and one of my favorite books ever is Homotopical Topology by Fomenko and Fuchs, which also comes with some mind-blowing drawings made by Fomenko himself.
