Going to Moscow, I constantly thought about why this city never became popular. tourist destination among our compatriots. It is beautiful, interesting and more than colorful. Everyone understands this. But for some reason, such things always remain behind the scenes - as if somewhere on the sidelines. On the one hand, Belarusians travel to Moscow regularly. On the other hand, only a few will have a camera with them. As if Moscow does not exist at all for this. “Here is Peter, yes. And Moscow? Well, what is there to photograph?
Probably six months ago, when the Schengen visa was proudly shining in my passport, I would hardly have gone here myself. But now I am not at all disappointed that I nevertheless decided on this trip. The capital of Russia is really a great city. And in these words now there is not a single gram of politics. I liked it here. Even though the cold weather is literally driving me crazy for the second trip in a row. And even despite the fact that for me personally it was far from the first trip to this city. Well, okay ... Enough chatter.
About what interesting places in Moscow a tourist should visit, as well as how Tanya and I personally spent a weekend in this city, read further in our article. I will try to show you the capital of Russia the way only people see it Chinese tourists. As Gagarin said: "Let's go!".
Interesting places in Moscow: where to go for a tourist and what to do in the Russian capital
Visit the Moscow residence of Catherine II.
For lovers of antiquity and classical Russian architecture museum complex Tsaritsyno, located near the metro station of the same name, is a real “must see”. It's beautiful, cozy and somehow not in the Moscow quiet. In general, getting here, you seem to fall into some other reality. I could imagine such a building somewhere in St. Petersburg. But in Moscow, it looked like an alien from some parallel world.
Well, imagine: you are walking around the city. On the one hand, some kind of zachuhannaya market. On the other hand, high-rise buildings. And then suddenly you cross the road - and a huge palace appears in front of you. Around big park, a crystal pond with some unrealistic number of ducks, forged lanterns and numerous bridges with mysterious Masonic symbols. It feels like in just a few minutes you wandered into some other - completely unfamiliar world. It's just a brain drain.
Bridge over the ravine. And a bunch of Masonic symbols.
In general, the Tsaritsyno museum complex is not only the famous Grand Palace(which does not want to fit into the frame entirely). But also a large number of other historical buildings. The bread house, ancient greenhouses, figured bridges, the Temple of the Icon of the Mother of God - all these buildings organically fit into the territory of one large Moscow park. It is very difficult to describe this complex “in a nutshell”. Therefore, a little later I will issue a separate article on this topic. And now I’ll just sketch a few more photos here so that you can appreciate the beauty and grandeur of this museum. No list of the most interesting places in Moscow is not complete without mentioning the Tsaritsyno complex.
Bread House (also known as the Kitchen Building). Canteen, in short. 
Grand Palace
Tanya and I. Selfie inside the imperial palace
Well, this lady, I think you recognized.
At the conclusion of the block, a little useful information, which my Tanya always insists on so much ... The Tsaritsyno Museum is open all week except Monday. Working hours:
- Tuesday-Friday: from 11:00 to 18:00
- Saturday: from 11:00 to 20:00
- Sunday: from 11:00 to 19:00
- The park adjacent to the complex is open from 6 am to midnight.
A complex ticket to all halls and expositions costs 650 Russian rubles. A ticket to the Grand Palace and the Bread House will cost less - 350 rubles. A visit to the greenhouses alone costs 250 rubles. The third Sunday of each month is free admission to all halls (as, by the way, to other museums in Moscow). More detailed information about the Tsaritsyno Museum and the current expositions can be found on the website www.tsaritsyno-museum.ru.
Walk along the Kremlin walls.
The Grand Palace in Tsaritsyno is very beautiful and beautiful place. But there is one in Moscow ancient fortress, which will always remain number one for tourists anyway. I think you understand what I mean.
The Moscow Kremlin is a symbol of Moscow. And at the same time - the symbol of all of Russia. From its walls, soldiers went to the front in 1941. The great Victory Parade took place near its walls four years later.
As for me personally, I really liked this place. It has a spirit modern Russia. As if everything that this far and near country lives with was embodied in the features of one building. Ruby stars, a guard of honor at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier and the famous clock on the Spasskaya Tower are all worth seeing. As, however, and many other colorful little things scattered in the immediate vicinity of the Kremlin walls. Here, for example, is the "Minsk" star on the alley of "Hero Cities". 
Monuments to the characters of Russian fairy tales.
Fountain with galloping horses (which, unfortunately, did not work in March).
All this gives the city a special charm, showing tourists that the most interesting places in Moscow can sometimes be found in the most unexpected places.
Visit Lenin's mausoleum.
I'll be honest: personally, Tanya and I never got here in three days in Moscow. Therefore, about this place of worship(at least for the Russian capital) I will write in a nutshell. So, guess the riddle: what is the difference between Minsk and Moscow? Of course, there are hundreds of answers to this question. But in this case, I would note only one difference: in Minsk, Lenin is vertical, and in Moscow, horizontal. Although both of them are more like a monument than a person. The body of the leader of the world proletariat has been in the mausoleum since 1924. And since then, the “human” remains of Vladimir Ilyich, as many experts note, have survived by less than 10 percent.
Wander around Red Square.
Just to wander around, because taking pictures here is almost useless. Clouds of Chinese constantly climb into the frame, for whom Moscow, after the subsidence of the Russian ruble, has become the most popular destination for travel. To say that there are a lot of them is to say nothing. Instead, I will note another curious fact - many inscriptions in the center of Moscow have already been duplicated in Chinese. Here, for example, how the price tags look in the Moscow GUM.
Eat ice cream in the Moscow GUM.
By the way, about GUM... For me personally, this store was the most vivid impression of this whole spring trip. And the point here is not at all in shopping, but in the very atmosphere that reigns under the glass vaults of this ancient building. If you name the most interesting places in Moscow, I would boldly put the main department store of this city in the first place. Why? I can find several answers to this question personally.
When you get here, you seem to plunge into the atmosphere of Soviet Moscow in the 60s and 70s. Under the vaults of the store, the melodies of the USSR hits sound. Soviet posters hang on the walls. And colorful and austere ice-cream workers deliver branded Soviet ice cream in waffle cones (1 = 50 rubles) through the long galleries of GUM.
I understand that in the CIS the words “Soviet”, “USSR-ovsky”, as well as the word “GUM” itself, sound at least ambiguous. Many see them as unnecessary moldy relics of the past. Or some Soviet dullness. But the Moscow GUM has nothing to do with all this. Here, the atmosphere of the USSR does not repel, but, on the contrary, fascinates, attracts and inspires. She wants to penetrate. And take it with you. Like the music of Eduard Khil. Or the song "White Steamboat" from the comedy "Guardian", which still sounds in my head. Remember her?
What else do I remember in Moscow GUM? Painted benches, colorful dining room No. 57, romantic bridges hanging somewhere under the glass vaults, and this unusual tree, studded with dozens of colorful birdhouses with the names of various stores. It's hard not to fall in love with such Moscow. After all, this city knows how to be not only frowning and stern, but also open, romantic and heartfelt in a spring way.
Admire ancient Moscow churches
The ancient churches of the Russian capital have long become symbols known to the whole world. Russia can be misunderstood. You can not love Russia. But it is very, very difficult not to admire the beauty of ancient Russian architecture. And with my hands on the sacred keys of my laptop keyboard, I can honestly say that St. Basil's Cathedral in Moscow is one of the most beautiful buildings I have ever seen in my life. But in the Russian capital there are many others interesting churches... The Cathedral of Christ the Savior, the Cathedral of the Epiphany, the Church of St. Sophia and many others - each of these places is a full-fledged attraction. We found only a few of them. I am attaching a couple of photos below.
Go to a performance of one of the Moscow theaters
Probably, I will not deviate much from the truth if I say that Russian theatrical art has been and remains, if not the best in the world, then definitely one of the best. The Bolshoi Theatre, the Vakhtangov Theatre, the Moscow Art Theater - all these names are known far beyond the borders of Russia. Although, to be honest, now I somehow don’t want to load you with serious stories about high art. Therefore, instead of long enumerations, I will only say one thing: in most Moscow theaters, you can watch live the performance of many stars of modern Russian TV series. For example, Tanya and I were going to go to a performance with the participation of some actors of the famous television project "Kitchen". Unfortunately, this idea did not come true. But maybe you will find time to go to the theater during your trip?
Ride the Moscow metro.
What you really don't miss on your trip to the Russian capital is the Moscow Metro. Without it, moving around the city is almost impossible. Especially if you drive mainly in the central part of the city, which regularly suffers from traffic jams.
However, this is probably for the best. After all, the metro in the Russian capital is another full-fledged tourist attraction that can be safely attributed to the number of the most interesting places in Moscow. In many guidebooks, this subway is called “an underground masterpiece of architecture” and the most beautiful subway in Europe. Although, in my subjective opinion, not all local subway stations really deserve attention. The only exceptions are the oldest stations of the Moscow metro - Revolution Square, Kyiv (ring), Mayakovskaya, Novoslobodskaya. Personally, I also really liked the Vorobyovy Gory metro station, where Tanya and I found some random exhibition of household items. As well as the metro station "Vystavochnaya", combined with the glass bridge of Bagration. This bridge offers an excellent view of the Moscow River embankment, as well as the skyscrapers of Moscow City. A bit of tar in a barrel of honey is added everywhere by unwashed windows. But these are, so to speak, the little things in life.
Oh yeah ... I also really liked those subway stations where trains jump out to the surface. You go and go among the dark tunnels of the subway and then suddenly - wow - and there is such beauty around.
Photograph the tallest building in Europe.
To be honest, for me personally, the skyscrapers of the Russian capital and the local business center in general have been and remain one of the most interesting places in Moscow. Each building is a separate masterpiece. What is the twisted spiral of the Tower of Evolution worth (No. 1 according to Tanya) or the City of Capitals complex, as if made of giant cubes. All together it looks very beautiful and impressive. And the glare playing on the waves of the Moskva River only reinforces this impression.
As for the tallest buildings, there are three of them (no matter how strange it may sound). The Mercury Tower held this title in 2013. Tower "OKO" - in 2014. A East End Federation Tower is the most tall building Europe at the time of this writing. Its height is 374 meters. Damn... I don't know about you, but I just love skyscrapers.
Skyscraper Mercury - first on the right; Federation Tower is a double building to its left. In the center is the twisted spiral of the Evolution Tower.
If anyone is interested: some towers of the complex are equipped with separate observation decks. How cool the view opens from there, I personally do not know. But this pleasure is quite expensive - 500 Russian rubles (at the time of this writing - 150 thousand Belarusian rubles). For 5500 rubles in the Moscow City complex, you can even arrange a date. More detailed information about this is presented on the site moscow-city-viewer.rf.
View of Moscow from Sparrow Hills
However, several excellent viewing platforms in Moscow can be found absolutely free. The most popular of them is the observation deck on Sparrow Hills, located near the metro station of the same name. The only negative in this case is that you will have to walk a little more to it. Part of the path goes uphill - along the roads of the local park. The other part is along highway, on normal asphalt. In total, from the doors of the metro station to observation deck Sparrow Hills stomp for 10-15 minutes. Oh yes, dress warmly. The observation deck is quite cool and windy.
Find all seven Stalin skyscrapers.
The building of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs
The Vorobyovy Gory lookout is also notable for the fact that it is from here that you can see all seven Stalinist skyscrapers, which were and remain one of the main symbols of modern Moscow. To be honest, I personally counted only six such buildings from this site. I once saw two more similar buildings in Riga and Warsaw. And in Moscow itself, I could see only two such buildings up close - the high-rise of the Moscow State University (near the Sparrow Hills) and the building of the Russian Foreign Ministry (near the Old Arbat). All the rest I saw only in the distance - somewhere in the distance or even on the horizon line.
The building of Moscow State University, which for 37 years was the tallest building in Europe. It is believed that during the construction of this tower, materials from the destroyed Cathedral of Christ the Savior and the German Reichstag were used. And according to one of the projects, a monument to the “Worker and Collective Farm Woman” should have stood right next to it.
And again the building of the Russian Foreign Ministry
Freezing in Moscow Tanya
Why were these buildings so interesting to me? I don’t know… Maybe I was somehow attracted by their sacred meaning, which is constantly attributed to them, coupled with the numerous secrets of their creation. Moscow skyscrapers are called "places of power", "space conductors" and "analogues Egyptian pyramids". Fans of various stories related to aliens say that Stalin built them as "communication switches" with extraterrestrial civilizations. And native Muscovites assure that under some buildings there are hidden entrances to secret subway lines (the so-called Metro-2).
Which of these is true and which is fiction, I, of course, do not know. However, it is known for certain that initially there were to be not seven, but eight skyscrapers. For the sake of one of them, the Cathedral of Christ the Savior was even specially blown up in 1931. A few years later, the grandiose construction of the Palace of Soviets began on this site, which was stopped due to the outbreak of World War II. Subsequently, the project for the construction of the building of the eighth and most important skyscraper was never implemented. However, the original sketches of the building have survived to this day. Therefore, it is still possible to imagine what this architectural giant topped with a giant monument to Lenin would look like.

See the famous monument to the "Worker and Collective Farm Girl"
Another symbol of the Soviet empire and at the same time one of the most famous monuments modernity is located near the VDNKh metro station, not far from the Kosmos hotel. The steel sculpture stands on a separate pedestal. And it looks dark, but impressive. Probably, this is exactly what the real symbol of the Soviet Union should be.
Immerse yourself in the history of space exploration.
In fact, it is worth coming to the VDNKh station not only for the sake of the famous monument to Vera Mukhina. In addition to it, there is the Museum of Cosmonautics, the famous (but also rather gloomy) Cosmos Hotel, as well as the monument to the Conquerors of Space, which appears before your eyes almost immediately after leaving the metro. In March 2016, against the background of the lead Moscow sky, this pointed stele looked very unusual and even somehow mystical. The monument seemed surprisingly cold to me. But at the same time, it was hard to look away from him.
Find the Belarusian pavilion at the Exhibition of Achievements of the National Economy.
The golden fountains of VDNKh and the pavilions of this all-Union exhibition were one of the main reasons for me to travel to Moscow. I don't know why, but I personally expected a lot from them. And in the end, it was this place on the map of the Russian capital that disappointed me the most. Golden fountains disappeared behind piles of scaffolding. Alleys of the adjacent park from behind bad weather were somehow gloomy and lifeless. It seemed that some kind of endless oppressive autumn reigned in this place. Although, probably, in warm weather, VDNKh looks much more bright and friendly.
One way or another, we still managed to find the Belarusian pavilion of this old exhibition. Does he look really cool? No. But to visit this interesting corner of Moscow is still worth it. Personally, I remember this space rocket much more here. 
Colorful, isn't it?
Walk along the Moscow Arbat.
We ended our trip to Moscow with a walk along another famous corner of the Russian capital - the old Arbat. And I remember him for some huge number of unusual and amazing little things.
Here, for example, is a replica of the imperial crown in one of the local souvenir shops.
Tsoi wall.
A huge portrait of Zhukov on one of the walls.
And an unusual blue trolleybus, turned into one of the iconic Moscow cafes.
There is also a huge green Gulliver, the “golden” princess Turandot and an inconspicuous house in which Alexander Sergeyevich Pushkin once lived on the old Arbat. All these pleasant little things turn the Moscow Arbat into a very colorful and unusual street - one of the most interesting in Moscow. Personally, we walked here with pleasure. Even despite the fact that at that moment two loaded bags hung on me.
Pushkin House
In general, this trip to Moscow justified my expectations by about 70-80 percent. I liked this city. But I can't say that I just fell in love with him. In general, my impressions after this trip are a topic for a full-fledged separate article. Therefore, I will now round off (and so the text turned out to be very large). So long, comrades!
Excursions in Moscow
If you are somehow not accustomed to walking around the Russian capital on your own, here is another free tip for you. You can find many unusual author's tours. There are programs for every taste, many of which will surprise even the natives of Moscow. In addition, all excursions have a description, ratings and reviews of previous tourists. Pay attention to such nuances, and you are guaranteed to get an excellent tour and a lot of vivid impressions from getting to know the city.
As confirmation - a small selection of excursions in Moscow from professional guides.
Apartments for a day in Moscow
It is believed that Moscow is a rather expensive city. However, compared to European cities or even the Baltic countries, housing prices here are very reasonable. Therefore, it is not difficult to find a normal option for a trip to Moscow. The main thing is to make sure that the accommodation you have chosen is in close proximity to the metro - it is very difficult to move around the Russian capital without it.
Personally, during our trip to Moscow, Tanya and I rented a large room in a huge four-room apartment near the Sevastopolskaya metro station. And at the same time they gave absolutely ridiculous money for it - something about 4 euros per day. Yes, I understand, now you are probably all thinking: “What kind of housing is this?”. Therefore, here is for you, which describes this apartment itself, as well as the method by which it was possible to rent it for only 4 euros per day.
In general, a modern apartment in the Russian capital, not far from one of the local metro stations, can be rented for 25-35 dollars per day. Of course, if you wish, you can find an apartment for a smaller amount. However, I repeat: it is difficult to move around Moscow without the metro, so it is very important that the option you choose is within walking distance of one or another station.
find best options and you can get a small bonus when registering on the site AIRBNB. And do not forget that this site has its own discount coupons and promo codes, by entering which you can reduce the cost of the selected housing by 11 or even 50 dollars in two clicks.
Hotels in the Russian capital
There are also a lot of hotels and hotels in Moscow. But, if you choose this option, be sure to remember that the same number on different sites can cost completely different things! Therefore, it is best to look for options through search engine sites (for example, such as RoomGuru). These services allow you to compare prices in different booking systems and book hotels exactly where they are the cheapest.
In our review, we will provide a list of 21 places in Moscow that are worth visiting. Some of them are not included in the generally recognized routes of the city's sights, but this makes them no less good for visiting.
After looking at them and visiting these places, you will understand how many-sided and interesting the capital is, which will sparkle before you with new facets.
These places in Moscow are worth visiting not only for tourists, but also for Muscovites who have not yet discovered these corners of the capital.
So, go!
This is the place that everyone without exception must visit in Moscow. It is here that you will understand how time can stop: the rush and vanity of a huge metropolis seems to be cut off by bamboo gates, and the symbols of the culture of the Islands of the Rising Sun, like pagodas, bridges and pavilions, will encourage you to unhurried contemplation.
The Japanese garden was created by masters from Japan itself. You can admire the beauties of this corner of the capital at any time of the year, but the garden is especially beautiful at the time of cherry blossoms. This phenomenon is almost fleeting, as the Japanese cherry tree blooms in less than one week.
The second green corner of Moscow on our list, which is definitely worth a visit, is the Pharmaceutical Garden on Prospekt Mira. It is considered the oldest botanical garden In Russian federation.
But not only this attracts many visitors. Thanks to the work of local employees, few people can compete with the pharmaceutical garden of its kind in terms of information content, visibility, special grooming, comfort and even photogenicity.
By his decree, this garden-garden was ordered to be created by Peter the Great in 1706 for the cultivation of medicinal plants (hence this unusual name garden), and a century later - in 1805 - it came under the jurisdiction of the current owner - Moscow State University.
The house of the architect Melnikov is especially popular outside of Russia as an example of the Soviet avant-garde. To our shame, few people here know about it, moreover, few people have been in it. Therefore, it is worth visiting!
The design decision, inspired by the futuristic theme, made the house look like a mysterious spaceship. The interior of the building also arouses admiration: the spatial solution is many-sided and carefully verified, and, meanwhile, mysterious. It was not for nothing that Melnikov promised to pay a prize to someone who could name the exact number of floors in this building.
And again about recognition! Even many Muscovites do not know about the existence of the Savvinsky Metochion, not to mention the guests of the capital and tourists. That is why we have included this place in Moscow in our list, which is worth a visit.
Before your eyes will appear the most beautiful, without exaggeration, architectural monument erected on this site back in 1907 by the architect Kuznetsov. It was designed in a fabulous Russian style with elements of Baroque and Art Nouveau.
Savinskoye Compound is a former profitable possession of the monastery of the same name. Once it stood on Tverskaya itself, but during the reconstruction of the latter, the building was moved to the depths of the courtyards and thus preserved for posterity.
Therefore, when walking along the street, take at least a little time and go into the arch of house number 6. So in a matter of seconds you will get from the present to the last century.
Located not far from some of the main sights of the city of Moscow, for example, the Cathedral of Christ the Savior, it is rightfully deprived of the attention of foreign, and even our tourists.
But it is on Prechistenka that you can see a huge number of former mansions, which today are rightfully considered architectural monuments. It is not for nothing that this place in Moscow was called Moscow Saint-Germain, drawing an analogy with the luxurious district of Paris.
This street will also be interesting for fans of Bulgakov's work. After all, it was in the profitable property on Prechistenka that he settled Professor Preobrazhensky from the Heart of a Dog.
Although the architecture of the building itself is interesting, the Moscow Planetarium is just the right place to visit if you come here for numerous performances.
In various halls, you can find answers to many scientific questions: how our Universe was born, are we the only ones in outer space, why stars fall on Earth, and so on. Astronomy enthusiasts have the opportunity to get closer to the stars: look at them through the eyepiece of a powerful telescope.
Located in Armenian Lane, the Moscow Lights Museum is another place worth visiting.
It is located in historical building old chambers. Upon entering it, you will be given a remote control with which you can turn on and off the lamps of different eras.
On the second level there is an exposition that will tell about the life of different generations of Muscovites and about the lamps that they each used in their time.
The building for the electric theater was rebuilt by 1909, and it was the first in the Russian Empire, which was intended specifically for watching films.
It was here, for the most part, that previews of new Russian films were held, and every director considered it an honor if his tape got on the screen of the "Artistic" film.
Currently, the iconic Soviet and Russian cinema is under reconstruction, but will reopen its doors very soon.
It should be said right away that such a format of a museum - a museum of one house - can be found in Russia only in the capital, and there are none in the world, so this place in Moscow is worth a visit without fail.
It recreates the era of the 30s of the last century, and all the items and documents once belonged to famous residents, among whom were Svetlana Alliluyeva - Stalin's daughter, the poet Demyan Bedny, marshals Zhukov and Tukhachevsky, the future Soviet General Secretary Nikita Khrushchev and many others.
Unfortunately, the history of this house bears a tragic imprint. You can learn about this and more by visiting the Houses on the Embankment Museum.
The Museum of Man "Living Systems" is a truly unique educational and entertainment format for all family members: from a child to an adult. Visitors will learn a lot about the human body and how our organs work in a playful way.
The best part is that the exhibits in this museum can and must be touched with your hands in order to better understand all the ongoing processes.
Museon Arts Park is the most major museum sculptures and monuments of Russia in an open area, moreover, made in various artistic directions and created in the 20th and 21st centuries.
In addition, the current format of the Muzeon includes not only viewing the exhibits, but also holding entertainment and cultural programs: performances by artists and musicians, lecture halls, photo exhibitions and much more.
The East Garden, recently created here, is especially popular.
Observation deck in Moscow City
The time has come and unprecedented skyscrapers appeared in Moscow, which are compactly located on the Moscow City site. Estimates of this project vary from rejection to admiration.
But be that as it may, the towers have already been built and may eventually become the same symbol of the capital as the Eiffel Tower in Paris, which was also initially not perceived by most of its contemporaries.
As for the observation deck, one of them is located on the 58th floor of a skyscraper tower called "Empire". From there, the main building of Moscow State University on Sparrow Hills is clearly visible, Ostankino Tower, Cathedral of Christ the Savior and government building (White House). Moreover, you will see all this from a bird's eye view.
Graffiti area on Izumrudnaya
If you love urban wall art - graffiti, then Izumrudnaya Street is just the place in Moscow that is worth a visit. It is located not far from the Babushkinskaya metro station, and the painted houses themselves, 12 in total, are located next to Yantarny Proezd and the street itself. A riot of colors is guaranteed!
It is worth saying that this graffiti was made in 2007 by Russian and foreign masters - participants of the project "Color Moscow!". The level of execution is the highest, incl. this place will interest many lovers of painting, and everything unusual.
Peredelkino
The village of Peredelkino is extremely interesting for its unique landscape, nature and culture.
After all, it is here that the Writer's Town is located, where many famous writers and poets lived and live. After the death of some of them, memorial museums were opened here: Pasternak, Bulat Okudzhava, Chukovsky.
There is also a patriarchal residence in Peredelkino, on the territory of which there are beautiful temples and churches.
Restaurant "In the Dark"
Why is this place in Moscow worth visiting? Yes, simply because you can plunge into the world of blind people and understand them better, find out how difficult it is to live in total darkness.
Visitors are served by completely blind waiters - in halls where there is not even a strip of light and no contours are visible.
The session will last 2 hours, and the menu includes 5 complex dinners: fish, meat, Japanese, vegetarian and mixed. The restaurant is located on Oktyabrskaya street, 2/4.
A truly openwork house on Leningradsky Prospekt, 27. This is exactly what typical block houses in the Soviet Union should have become.
External facades, thanks to openwork lattices, seem to have something in common with luxurious estates and palaces of the pre-revolutionary era, although the internal spaces are arranged, one might say, in a Spartan way.
Unfortunately, this house remained a model, and, moreover, in a single copy (in the post-war years there was no time for frills, albeit simple ones).
Settlement Gateways
Do you want to return, even if not for long, to the times of the Soviet Union? Then you should visit this place in Moscow - the village of Gateways in Pechatniki.
In a settlement on three islands, you will not find the usual supermarkets or chain cafes. Local architecture is not represented not only by examples from the times of Luzhkov, but even by Brezhnev.
You will find here a decent size sand beach, you will see households with poultry and even beavers near the water's edge.
Below we provide a list of places worth visiting, but this will be associated with certain difficulties: either this is a secure facility, or an area not officially open under protection. If you are interested in this information and want to visit this place, then opportunities can be found.
Spotting at Sheremetyevo
Do you love airplanes? Do you enjoy watching them take off and land?
Periodically, the administration of Sheremetyevo Airport conducts so-called spotting excursions.
What is their beauty?
Yes, in that you can be inland not as a passenger with a limited travel route, but as an employee. You can believe that these are already different sensations and impressions that will be remembered for a lifetime.
It is definitely not possible to get into the territory on your own. Regime object, however.
The city estate of the Usachyov tea merchants with a park area, the plans of which can be seen in many Soviet films.
Surprisingly, this place, which is definitely worth a visit, is that a quiet and cozy old park with gazebos, classical sculptural compositions and even a mysterious grotto is located almost in the center of the capital - on Zemlyanoy Val.
Causes admiration and the main house 19th century, incl. the atmosphere of this place seems to immerse us in the history of a bygone era.
The interior of the main manor house in Uzkoy amazes visitors with its sophistication: cultural rarities of the 17th-20th centuries, skillfully made furniture, beautiful decor made in various styles.
The local exposition is the envy of many Russian, and even Moscow, museums, incl. look for the opportunity, because this place is worth it to visit. In addition, today the Uzkoye estate is located within the boundaries of modern Moscow - on Profsoyuznaya street, 123.
The last place on our list in the city of Moscow, which is worth visiting, although it is difficult to do this.
The Izmailovo anomaly (also called the Strokinsky fortification) is located in Izmailovsky park. The history of its occurrence is mysterious and so far experts have not come to a consensus.
It is believed that these are either the “amusing” fortifications of Peter I, or the fortified area of the Time of Troubles, or simply the destroyed buildings of the former old brick factory. Some fans generally awarded him the title of "Russian Stonehenge".
It is located on the territory of the local state farm behind a high concrete fence, but if you wish, you can get over it.
That's the whole list of places in Moscow that are worth visiting, although many of them are not particularly visited and are not even included in various guides to the main metropolitan attractions. You have the opportunity to discover new and beautiful places in your favorite city!
