Moscow Tourism

---

Moscow City Tour is a good chance to get acquainted with the largest city in Russia. This ancient city, which was first mentioned in chronicles in 1147, has always played the most important part in Russian history. Even when the capital was moved to St. Petersburg, in 1712, Moscow was considered to be the second capital of Russia.

During the city tour you will see all the major sights, including the Red Square, the Cathedral of Christ the Savior, the Novodevichiy Convent, Poklonnaya and Vorobievy Mountains, Tverskaya Street, Bulvarnoye Koltso (Boulevard Ring), and other attractions. Bulvarnoye Koltso, or Boulevard Ring, is one of the main thoroughfares in the center of Moscow. The ring emerged at the end of the 18th-beginning of the 19th century.

The spread of the ring exceeds 9 kilometers. It is interesting to note that it reminds of a horseshoe in shape. The ends of this shape open on the Moskva River. Poklonnaya Mountain is a gently sloping hill in the west of Moscow. The mountain houses the Victory Park (that was laid down to commemorate WWII victory), a few museums, the Memorial Church of George the Victor, a Mosque, a Synagogue.
