The day off should be spent in such a way as to “recharge” with positive emotions for the entire next working week. Therefore, lying in front of the TV or chaining yourself to a computer monitor is the worst option. In any city, and especially in the capital, there are places worth going or going to get a lot of impressions.
So, regardless of whether you came to Moscow as a guest or live in this city, it will be interesting to get to Red Square and visit the Kremlin. Surely you haven’t walked around its territory for a long time, but there you can see the impressive Tsar Bell, Tsar Cannon, go to the Armory and the Diamond Fund. It will take a whole day and will cost about 1,500 rubles. Not far from the Kremlin is the Cathedral of Christ the Savior - majestic, with golden domes. You can end your walk with a sightseeing tour, or take a ride on the Moskva River on a river tram - from its deck you will have wonderful views of the evening capital. It's not a bad idea to go to the Tsaritsyno Museum-Reserve one weekend. It is a monument of history and culture of the 18th-19th centuries. It is very pleasant to walk in a picturesque park with alleys, bridges, grottoes, flat paths, small gazebos. And in the evening, the lights at a large musical fountain turn on. The palace of Catherine II in the pseudo-Gothic style is amazing. It was built by the famous architect Bazhenov. If you decide to go to Vorobyovy Gory, one of the highest places in Moscow, then you will see the most beautiful views of the capital - the whole panorama, Neskuchny Garden, and other sights. You just need to go to the observation deck of Moscow State University. On Saturday or Sunday you can get to the Novodevichy Convent. It was built in the XVI-XVII centuries by order of Vasily III, it is very beautiful and is included by UNESCO in the list of cultural heritage monuments. Pilgrims rush here to worship Orthodox shrines, and just tourists who want to admire the architecture of the historical monument. With children on weekends, you can go to the Moscow Zoo, reaching the station Barrikadnaya or Krasnopresnenskaya. It works from 10 to 20 in the summer and from 10 to 17 in the winter. The ticket costs 150 rubles, but beneficiaries can enter the territory for free. You can wander around the zoo all day, with so many animals and birds, these are just a few ideas for a weekend break. In fact, of course, there are a lot of places to visit in the capital and its surroundings. These are museums, and Arbat Street, and Alexander Garden, and Botanichesky, and Poklonnaya Gora, and much more. It all depends on your preference. The main thing is not to be lazy.
