CATHEDRAL OF CHRIST THE SAVIOUR is the highest and one of the biggest Orthodox churches in the world. Nowadays it is the main cathedral of the Orthodox Church - Kirill, the Patriarch of Moscow and all Rus' himself is its dean. It was built by decree of emperor Alexander I to honour the victory over Napoleon, to memory the dead soldiers and to thank Christ for saving Russia from defeat. In 1930s they decided to replace the cathedral with a Palace of the Soviets, so the cathedral was demolished. In fact, the Palace of the Soviets was never built, but they created an open-air swimming pool named “Moscow”. The Cathedral of Christ the Saviour was rebuilt on the same place in 1999 and consecrated, in 2000.

ARBAT STREET is one of the oldest and the most popular pedestrian area in Moscow. Being called the Russian Montmartre, it is full of different cafes, antique shops and little shops with traditional Russian gifts and souvenirs. Numerous artisans and painters display their works right there.

MOSCOW METRO is rightfully considered as the most beautiful one in the world. The stations built in the Stalin era are remarkable for their bold ornamentation and unique architecture. They were supposed to look like temples and palaces. Most of these stations are decorated with sculptures, stained-glass windows, different sorts of marble, and bronze chandeliers.

NOVODEVICHY CONVENT is one of the most splendid architectural ensembles of Moscow. The convent is situated in the south-west of the city, 4 kilometers from the Kremlin, in the bend of the Moscow river. It consists of 14 buildings including out- and housing edifices, bell towers and churches. The convent is found in 1524 by decree of prince Vasily III in honour of the capture of the city of Smolensk during the war with the Lithuanians.

THE STATE TRETYAKOV GALLERY is the world biggest museum of Russian art. The collection, gathered by Tretyakov as a private one, was later presented to Moscow city in 1892.

With objects of ancient Egyptian, Greek and Roman art as well as masterpieces of the Middle Ages and the Renaissance epoch, beautiful halls of the museum will hold you captured in the atmosphere of the centuries past.

STALIN SKYSCRAPERS After the Second World War, when the Soviet Union was supposed to dominate over the rest of the world, Stalin decided that in Moscow there was some lack of skyscrapers that could become an icon of the city of the Soviet epoch. As a result, in Stalin’s last ten years in power, they built seven skyscrapers – later named “the Stalin high rises” - that demonstrated an elaborate combination of Baroque and Gothic styles. They were built in 1947 to honour 800th anniversary of Moscow. During the tour you will observe with your own eyes the main MGU (Moscow State University) building, MID (Ministry of Foreign Affairs) building, hotels “Leningrad” and “Ukraina”, as well as professor Tikhomirov’s house from the movie “Moscow Does Not Believe in Tears”. You will see where the most famous art workers of the USSR (as AndreyVoznesensky, Evgeny Evtushenko, FainaRanevskaya, Galina Ulanova and many others) lived. Besides, you will find out how the skyscrapers were built; how their names and functions changed; what happened to the eighth and ninth towers…
