Set off on a 2-hour journey through the most vibrant and popular areas of Moscow. It is all about Moscow’s modern life and how it changed in the latest years. This tour is in many ways the exploration of the Muscovites’ interests and preferences. Learn why the Cathedral of Christ the Saviour is one of the symbols of Russia, and who lives now in the infamous House on the Embankment, which saw the peak of Stalin’s political terror.
Then we cross the river Moscow to the less touristy districts and see the new life of the oldest chocolate factory in Moscow. Across the river we will walk in the “Statue cemetery” of Muzeon park, where the old statues of communist leaders are gathered.
Many points of interest on this tour are connected with art, and we will show you the vernissage of local artists in the shadow of Tretyakov gallery on Krymsky val – the best collection of Russian avant-garde art. The tour finishes by the entrance to Gorky park – Moscow’s best and most beloved park and recently voted the best leisure and recreation area in Moscow.
