Moscow
Moscow - Thriving State
Capital and Metropolis
The heart of Russia - founded in 1147 by Yuri Dolgoruki.
After losing its status as capital to St.Petersburg for
nearly 200 years, Moscow regained its status in 1918 and
today the city has a bustling population of 10 million.
Moscow is the economic, scientific and cultural capital of
Russia - the Kremlin stands proud in the city centre (we
take you inside) with its amazing cathedrals - a truly
awesome experience. Walk on Red Square with St.Basil's
Cathedral, GUM Department Store, and of course Lenin's
Mausoleum. You will also have the chance to see the Moscow
State Circus , probably the world's finest and we also take
you to Sparrow Hills Viewpoint where a magnificent panorama
of the whole of Moscow awaits. Moscow pulsates by day and
night and is a fascinating contrast to St.Petersburg - a
true 24 hour city which never sleeps there is literally
something for everyone here. Truly unforgettable.
