Moscow Insight

Today I was thinking that I have already provided you with some tips about museums in Berlin, about different logistics excursions all over Germany. I guess, now it would be also useful if I give you few advices in case you want to visit Moscow.

Of course, you can google all the main sites in Moscow. I bet that you will find the following:

Park of Victory

Park of Victory

  • The Kremlin
  • Bolshoi Theatre
  • GUM Department Store
  • Moscow Metro
  • Park of Victory
  • Historical Museum, etc.

Undoubtedly, these sites are really gorgeous and mainly represent Russian culture but they are too common and full of tourists. There are some places in Moscow which are not less beautiful and so overcrowded.

First of all, it should be said that Moscow is really amazing itself and can be considered as entire site (especially in the central part of the city). It is always wonderful to walk at summer night in the centre of the city and feel its magic atmosphere! Here you can also find many cafes and bars of different formats and styles. Here are the main streets to walk through and to admire:

  • Tverskaya street
  • New Arbat
  • Old Arbat
  • The Boulevard Ring
  • Pyatnitskaya street, etc.

Secondly, I have my own favorite places in Moscow. They are:

Patriarshiye Ponds

Patriarshiye Ponds

  • Patriarshiye Ponds

Actually, it is only one pond in the centre of the city with white swans. This place is really famous due one of the Bulgakov’s novels starts from there!

  • Arkhangelskoye Palace

This estate is located around 20 kilometers from the city and it was built in the 18th-19th centuries. The Palace is facing the Moscow River and a regular terraced park which Is decorated with many antique statues.

These two places are really beautiful in any season but I like it most in summer when everything is colorful and trees are green!
