In metro ticket offices or ticket
kiosks, you can buy an all-in-one
ticket to use in all types of public
transport. The two most popular
types of ticket are the «Ediny» (AII-
in-One) (for one trip by metro or
land transport) and the «90 min-
utes» (which allows you to do un-
limited trips by land transport and
one trip by metro within 90 min-
utes). The tickets cost 55P and
65P, respectively. You can buy a
ticket for the same price directly
from the driver. However, drivers
sell only the Ediny ticket for one
trip,
If you have come to Moscow for
more than 3 or 4 days, it makes sense
to buy the «Troika» transportation
cardo One trip paid with the Troika
card would cost only 35P. You can
buy the card and top up the balance
in metro ticket offices or in automat-
ed machines and land kiosks,

Metro
Everybody knows that Moscow
has the most beautiful metro in
the world. Metro is also the most
convenient means of public trans-
portation in Moscow. It is true that
during rush hours (from 7 till 10
in the morning and from 6 till 8 in
the evening) the metro can be over-
crowded. You will find the map of the
Moscow metro on page 2-3.
Buses, trolleys and trams
Modern-Iooking screens display-
ing the waiting time were installed
not long ago at the public trans-
port stops in Moscow. However,
owing to the metropolitan traffic
jams, you should not fully rely on
this information. AII in all, the land
transport in Moscow is not as
popular among tourists as metro
or taxi. However, in some instanc-
es, land transport could be more
suitable; for instance, in the city
centre, trolleys often go half-empty.
Entrance to the land public trans-
port is to be made through the
front door, which is equipped with
a pay-gate and validator to which
you have to attach your ticket.
Troika ticket
An electronic transportation card
that allows you to top-up the bal-
ance, add tickets for all means of
city transport and a season pass

Taxi
The vast majority of legal taxi
drivers in Moscow use the fol-
lowing three aggregators: Yan-
dex. Taxi, Gett and Uber. If you
have any of the above apps
installed on your smartphone, you
will not have any problem with
taxis in Moscow: either in terms
of language or security. The prices
offered by the three aggregators
are not the same but alike: you
will pay 350-500P for a 30-rnin-
ute economy ride. Apart frorn
rush hours, waiting for a taxi will
take no more than 10 minutes.
Two important things: you can
still find legal taxis that are not
painted in the habitual yellow and
that do not have the taxi sign on
top (and most Uber taxis are like
that). Do not worry about this. And,
second, if you do wave down a taxi
on the street, you better negotiate
the price at the very beginning.

Safety
•
In general, Moscow is a perfectly
safe city, where the police work
well and street crimes are on
a quite low level. By all means,
same as in any other metro poli-
tan city, you should be aware of
pickpockets and stay away from
prohibited entertainments such as
prostitution or drugs. Unlike other
world capitals, there are no par-
ticularly ill-famed locality in Mos-
cow. However, a foreigner, who
does not speak Russian, would be,
for sure, running a greater risk at
night somewhere in the outskirts
of the city rather than at noon
on Red Square. Being prudent
would not be out of place at night
clubs either. However, in general,
if a tourist is sober and friendly,
he will be safe in Moscow.
In any emergency call

`-`
Moscow is a modern secular Eu-
ropean city, where no strict rules
of public behaviour apply. How-
ever, Muscovites are somewhat
conservative and demonstrating
passionately one`s political or reli-
gious beliefs or sexual identity in
public could be taken by others
with disapproval. In Moscow, it
is prohibited to consurne alce-
holic drinks in public. Poi ice are
strictly rnonitoring abuses and
no paper packs would pass for
a camouflage of a bottle.
The official currency of Russia is rou-
ble and this has long been no formal-
ity. By all means, it cannot be ruled
out that, in sorne antique shop in the
Arbat, they will happily accept your
dollars or euros (if the amount is
big enough); however, generally, you
will not be able to buy anything in
Moscow with foreign cash, Curren-
cy exchange kiosks and ATM rna-
chines are located at every turn (in
the city centre, at least) and it is safe
to use them (however, just in case,
you better change your money
in a bank even if the exchange rate
there is less appealing). Currency
exchange kiosks, bank branches and
ATMs are located in everyterminal of
the airport, where you can send and
receive rnoney transfers, buy curren-
cy or withdraw cash
Éiii
Bank card
VISA and MasterCard cards are
accepted virtually everywhere and
soon, according to the Moscow
authorities, there will be no shop
or café where you would not be
able to pay by cardo Moscow open
markets are the only places where
they accept cash only.
Official currency rates
You can check the official cur-
rency rates at the website of the
Russian Central Bank.

Smoking is prohibited near metro
stations, schools, hospitals, at sta-
diums and in any premises, apart
from one`s own apartment. Smok-
ing is also prohibited in cafes and
restaurants.
One more piece of advice for our
foreign guests: in Moscow, same
as everywhere in Russia, you are
supposed to give place to women
and elderly people in transport.

If you have just a weekend
By all means, three days is too little to see Moscow. However, if you use your time wisely, you will manage
to see all important things.
1
Day one
Let`s take that you have a whole day
at your disposal. Start with a short
walk from Pushkin Square` and go
down towards the Kremlin. You will
get an overview of the imperially
majestic Tverskaya Street, where it
is most pretentious; and see the
building of the Moscow City Hall
and the statue of Yuri Dolgorukiy on
the opposite side of the street. In as
little as 20 minutes you will reach
Manezhnaya (or Manege) Square.
Do not let the crowd flow you into
the underground shopping mall here
- this one is far from being the best
in its kind in Moscow. Red Square- is
waiting for you.
Strange as it might seem, you do not
need to see Red Square and the nearby
Kremlin all in one day. If no festival,
preparation of a concert or construction
of a skating-rink (which does not happen
2
Daytwo
6
often) is taking place on the square,
you will be able to peacefully enjoy its
enormous size of 24,750 square metres
and a circle of surrounding buildings: the
Mausoleum, the Historical Museum,
the GUM (state universal department
sto re) and the Cathedral of St. Basil the
Blessed. Do not forget to see the Calvary
(Lobnoye Mesto) and the Monument
to Minin and Pozharsky. If you`ve had
enough, take lIyinka Street to go to the
Bolshoy Theatre. It is within a stones-
throw.
If you`ve arranged for seeing
a performance at the Bolshoy Theatre,
it makes sense to wait until the evening
of the performance to see the Bolshoy.
Then, without hesitating twice, descend
to the metro and go from the Ploshchad
Revolyutsii station to the Smolenskaya
station. Visiting the Arbat`, with its
street musicians, souvenirs and
antique shops is virtually a must for
any tourist. Most people walk along the
street in the direction «from the centre
out». We are urging you to take just
the opposite direction. Having walked
through the Arbat from Smolenskaya
Square down to Arbatskaya Square, take
a left, heading towards the boulevards.
The Boulevard Ring was built where
once there were the walls of the ancient
White Town, now demolished. This is
one of the nicest places to walk. Make
it at least along Nikitsky and Tverskoy
Boulevards. At the end you will come
to Pushkin Square, which you already
know. If you`ve done all the above
thoroughly and without rush, it must be
high time for a dinner then. The good
thing is that, right on the spot, near
Pushkin Square, there are numerous
places offering food for any taste and
budget.
Give it to the Kremlin. Take your time to see Take a walk in the Taynitsky Garden and in
the Armoury Chamber" (the Monomakh`s a newly laid garden square situated where
Cap, the unique collection of gold and once there stood a building of the 14th

collections of arms and carriages) and the the Patriarchal Chambers and the Church of

diamond,the«Shakh»diamondandthemedal Having seen the Kremlin, drop in the
«Victory»). Go inside all the three cathedrals Alexander Garden (Aleksandrovsky
that are open to visitors: the Cathedral Sad) and see the changing of the guard
of the Assumption` (Uspensky Sobor), by the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. If
which is the oldest fully preserved building you are still not tired enough, go to the
in Moscow, the Cathedral of the Archangel Red Square again. Make it inside the
(Arkhangelsky Sobor),which accommodates Cathedral of St. Basil the Blessed. It is
the table tombs of Russian czars, including much more spectacular on the outside,
that of Ivan the Great, and the Cathedral however, than in the inside. And, yeah,

(Kolokolnya) of Ivan the Great (137 steps). old soviet recipe is a must.
3
Day three
The way you spend it depends
somewhat on the season. In summer,
go to the Proletarskaya metro station
and, having walked a couple hundred
metres, take a cruiser at the river
station by the Novospassky Bridge.
Half an hour later, having sailed along
the Kremlin and the Cathedral of
Christ the Saviour, get off at the Gorky
Park", You will enjoy fine grass lawns,
comfortable benches, free Wi-Fi,
cheap fast food, rented bicycles and
other enjoyments. You can actually
stay the whole day in there (especially,
if there is some interesting exposition
at the Garage Museum). But if you`ve
had enough, there is Museon on the
opposite side across the Krymsky
Val Street, which is a curious open-
air museum park, where they installed
demolished monuments to soviet
leaders, including the very statue of
Dzerzhinsky from Lubyanka.
This option will not suit in winter
(although special cruisers sail along
the Moskva River even in winter). But
don`t let things get you down. There
are two museums in Moscow which
are a must: the Tretyakov Gallery?
and the Pushkin Museum of Fine
Arts`. An inexperienced tourist would
argue that seeking two museums in
one day is too mucho An experienced
tourist would use a secret method:
he or she will go to the museum to
see just one masterpiece. This could
be, for instance, The Trinity by Rublev
in the Tretyakov Gallery and The
Blue Dancers by Dega in the Pushkin
Museum. In this case you will be
able to get an impression about the
museum and will not be confused with
too many paintings.
If going to a museum is not for you,
shopping would be your option. See the
columns of 22-23. to learn where the
main shopping places in Moscow are.

The Exhibition of Achievements of the National Economy or VDNH is the largest
museum and recreational complex in the world with some 25 mili ion people visiting it
every year. VDNH was founded back in 1939 to demonstrate the best achievements of
the Soviet Union to the entire world. Nowadays, the park keeps its exdusive significance
as a very popular recreational place for Muscovites and guests of Moscow. Over the
last years, VDNH pavilions have been renovated with the use of modern technologies
and they have all renewed their expositions. The park territory has been improved up
to the highest international standards. After VDNH was combined with the adjacent
Ostankino park, their total area reached 317 Ha.

Tsaritsyno Park
The majority of Russians associate Russian architectural masterpieces of the
18th century with Saint Petersburg`s magnificent palaces and gardens. However,
the Tsaritsyno Park dramatically stands out of this stereotype. Having found
yourself inside the park, you will feel as if you have been taken back to the times
of Catherine the Great. The Grand and Small Tsaritsyno Palaces are harmonically
supplemented with a picturesque park with ponds, copies of antique statues,
laced bridges, bowers and pavilions. Excursion programmes, exhibitions, concerts,
master classes and children events take place here regularly.

The Kremlin and Red Square
Don`t listen to snobs: the Kremlin and Red Square are indeed the best places
in Moscow. The Kremlin is the largest existing fortress town in the world. It is the most
beautiful and precious (from the historie point of view) attraction in Moscow and
the only one that should not be missed for sure even if you came to Moscow for as
little as just a couple of hours. You can simply take a walk around the Kremlin walls.
However, it will be better if you manage to get inside (bear in mind that there is always
a queue to get in). Enjoy the phenomenal beauty of the Kremlin cathedrals, the
famous Bell Tower of Ivan the Great and the treasures of the Armoury Chamber
and the Diamond Treasury. If this is not enough for you, there is t.enins Mausoleum
in Red Square. Yes, you can still go in there.
The Bolshoy Theatre
They say that you can never freely buy tickets for performances there. While
this is not quite true, it is indeed difficult to get into the Bolshoy, especially
to see a ballet. In 2011, the theatre was reopened after many years of being on
reconstruction and not only does the Bolshoy have now an outstanding company
but it also has new buildings and unique technical infrastructure. Well, even if you did
not make it to a performance there, you can still go on excursion to see the renowned
classicism building, with a chariot on its frontispiece designed by Alberto Cayos.

Pushkinskaya (or Pushkin) Square

While the Red Square is the heart of Moscow, the Pushkin Square is the centre
of its nervous system. This is where, by the famous statue of Pushkin made by
Opekushin, the majority of Muscovites prefer to meet. Three metro stations are
located nearby which makes it easy to reach any place in the city from here.
The most known Moscow restaurant (named, of course, «Pushkin») is located
here, same as the most known food sto re, which is not named «Pushkinsky»,
by chance, but «Eliseyevsky». From the Pushkin square, it is convenient to start
a leisurely walk along the Boulevard Ring, either to Arbat Street or in the opposite
direction, as you wish.

Together with the Russian Museum in Saint Petersburg, this is the main collection
of national art. The collection of Pavel Tretyakov, who was a merchant and gifted
the collection to Moscow, is packed with masterpieces: from the main Russian icon
of all times - the Trinity by Andrey Rublev, to the works of Repin, Vereschagin,
Surikov, Vrubel and Serov. Apart from its static exhibition, the Tretyakov Gallery
always has interesting temporary expositions.

Zaryadye Park
Zaryadye Park is justifiably believed to be the green alternative to Red Square. While
the latter is the symbol of Russia`s state dignity, the new park has accumulated
all the natural treasures of the world`s largest country. The Utopian landscape of
the park demonstrates main geographical zones of Russia: from ice deserts in
the Arctic to subtropics of the Black Sea coast. The Zaryadye Park has six original
spaces, including an educational complex «Reserved Embassy» with an Ice Cave
inside, an underground archaeological museum, an interactive Media Centre and a
dome «Glass Bark» with a concert amphitheatre. A view point "Flying Bridge" offers
yet another fantastic opportunity to the guests of the park. This is an ideal spot
to take a selfie in Moscow with a fascinating view over the Kremlin, the Moskva
River and the so called House on the Embankment.

The Pushkin Museum
Unlike the Tretyakov Gallery, the Pushkin Museum was intended as a Western
museum demonstrating the world art. The intention indeed materialised, as its
collection includes Cranach and Botticelli, Rembrandt and Poussin. However, the
main pearl of the museum is its collection of French impressionists and post-
impressionists, including the Red Vineyard near Aries by van Gogh and the Blue
Dancers by Dega. And, by all means, there is the Girl on the Ball by Picasso. Many
visitors come here specifically to see it, same as Mona Lisa in the Louvre.

interesting inside the building, apart from, however, the ninth «dean`s» floor.
The building designed by Boris lofan has a truly impeccable exterior. The best
place to take a rather close look as the Moscow State University is the observation
platform on the Sparrow Hills (Vorobyovy Gory). If you turn around you will see the
whole Moscow right in front of you.

Moscow ZOO
The Moscow Zoo was opened back in 1864 and beca me the first establishment
of its kind in Russia. Nowadays, it has several thematic zones, where animals of
around 1,100 species from all continents comfortably live, 50% of which are exotic
or rare species. Both adults and children invariably love the thematic sections
«House of primates», «Terrarium», «Tropical cats» and «Children zoo». The zoo
is especially proud of its pavilion «Exotarium», where the beautiful world of a coral
reef has been carefully recreated.

This is one of the world`s largest and oldest planetariums, which can easily reveal
the secrets of the starry sky to all its guests. After a major renovation fmished
in 2011, the Moscow Planetarium now occupies 17,000 sq.m and its functional
capabilities are beyond imagination. Presently, the complex includes the largest

The Troitse-Sergiyeva Lavra
(Trinity Lavra of St. Sergius)
This is the most important Russian monastery and a symbol of the special role
the Orthodox Church played in the life of Russia, not only as its spiritualleader
but also as a political one. This is where Sergius of Radonezh, the founder of the
Lavra, sanctified Dmitry Donskoy to fight in the Battle of Kulikovo. During the Time
of Trouble, the defence of the Lavra was a thing that all Russian were proud of.
A century later, the young reformer czar Peter the Great was hiding here from his
enemies. The relatively small territory of the Lavra accommodates ten cathedrals,
including the Trinity Cathedral built in the 15th century, which holds the shrine with
the relics of St. Sergius to which thousands of pilgrims come any time of the year
and day. Unreligious tourists are also welcomed here (which is not always seen
in monasteries). You have to follow a dress code, however: shorts, mini-skirts, low
necks and an uncovered head in women should be avoided.

Gorki Leninskiye (Lenin Hills)
This might be the best estate around Moscow, where not many tourists come,
which is a big plus. Lenin spent his last years and died here. His admirers will find
interesting the interior of his Kremlin flat, which was carefully moved into one of
the wings of this huge mansion. Museum attendants narrate very respectfully
about Lenin`s modesty in everyday life. Those who are not interested in Lenin
himself are strongly advised to visit the main building, a magnificent and perfectly
preserved manor estate built at the beginning of the 20th century, where even
every nail is authentic.

Abramtsevo
Unlike Gorki, Abramtsevo is quite popular with tourists, including foreigners.
This is a former estate of the Aksakov noble family and the Mamontov merchant
family. It is famous for the best Russian artists of the late 19th century -
beginning of the 20th century who used to sta y here for years. Not only does
the estate hold beautiful historical and artistic collections, but it also has
a well developed infrastructure. There is a hotel and a rather nice Russian cuisine
restaurant (with Moscow prices) in close proximity to the estate.

Arkhangelskoe
This is afine example of not just a noble estate but of an aristocratic one.
The property of Duke Yusupov impresses with its magnificent palace and
a perfectly kept French-style park. The estate became a museum right after the
revolution, that`s why everything here is genuine. An important advantage is
that Arkhangelskoe is located relatively close to Moscow and you do not need
a whole day to go there.

Kolomna
Less than two hours by an express train from the Kazansky Railway Station
and you will find yourself in one of the oldest Russian towns (which is only 30
years younger than Moscow). Kolomna has its own Kremlin (which still contains,
unlike the Moscow Kremlin, residential buildings), several rather old monasteries,
a nice Museum of Pastilles and the charm of a one-story wooden town. This
is real Russia.
Borodino
Borodino is the battlefield of Russian glory. Historians, except for, naturally,
Russian and French ones, usually treat the battle between Kutuzov and
Napoleon as a no one`s victory. War is not a sport, however. This place
is soaked with blood of the son s of the two great nations. By the way, the French
also eagerly visit Borodino. There are dozens of monuments to various Emperor`s
regimens, the Shevardino Redoubt and the Bagration Fléches.

Bolshiye Vyazemy
The estate is considered to be a Pushkin museum estate but the poet was never
been in Vyazemy himself. When a child, he often stayed with his grandmother
in the neighbouring village of Zakharovo (the reconstructed house in Zakharovo is
also a part of the museum). Bolshiye Vyazemy is linked to such renowned names
in the national history as Boris Godunov and False Dmitry (who owned the estate
at different times), Kutuzov and Napoleon (who accommodated their command
staff here in turns), Pavel I and Leo Tolstoy (who both stayed here).

only can you see personal belongings of the famous composer here but you can
also listen to his works: a modern concert hall, which looks, from afar,like a house
