Moscow is a city, a capital, which means that it is here that the largest number of entertainment centers, museums and other attractions are located. In a city with a population of over 10 million people, you can easily find a lot of interesting places to suit your taste, needs and wallet size. But how to have time to see all the most outstanding things in Moscow in just one day? The following recommendations will help.
Instructions
Step 1
Visit the "heart" of Moscow - Red Square and the Kremlin. It is here that you can make a wish by throwing a coin over your right shoulder, standing at the frontal place. And also: hear the chimes, enjoy the beautiful view from the bench in the Alexander Garden, see the changing of the guard and the Eternal Flame at the Kremlin walls. You can buy tickets for an excursion and get directly to the Kremlin itself, visit St. Basil's Cathedral, etc. Near Red Square, it is worth visiting the central shopping stores - GUM or TSUM. These shopping centers have long been a part of Moscow's history. However, you should not use these shops to buy souvenirs, as the prices are very high here.
Step 2
A boat trip along the Moskva River will help you to see the main sights of Moscow at once. For example, from the pier of Vorobyovy Gory you can sail past Gorky Park and see powerful attractions, then see the famous Red October chocolate factory, the Cathedral of Christ the Savior, the Kremlin, etc. After the walk, it is worth visiting the famous Tretyakov Gallery, the Pushkin Museum, and seeing the panorama of Moscow from the Sparrow Hills.
Step 3
It is better to “give up” the morning for visiting historical monuments and excursions, and devote the second half of the day to the other side of Moscow life. Since there is a limited amount of time for the entertainment program, visit VDNKh. Everything you can wish for is collected here. You can take a breeze ride on the rides, for example, ride on the largest Ferris wheel in Moscow. Then take a horse ride through the endless park, ride on catamarans. And also go to the pavilions of the park, where various things are sold (including souvenirs), and various exhibitions are located (for example, an exhibition of rare butterflies).
