Top Seven things to Tick off Your Moscow “Bucket List”
This Bucket List was created with a great help of Anna Kocketkova https://www.facebook.com/anna.kochetkova.52?fref=ts
1. Red Square.
You cannot miss it. You cannot ignore
it. You cannot brag about visiting Moscow if you haven’t visited Moscow Kremlin
and Red Square.
Please allow yourself a day or so to
wander around the vast cobblestone square with rich heritage, gorgeous
architecture and fancy cafes. The incredible GUM (well-known Moscow shopping
Centre), Lenin’s tomb, Museum or Russian History are right on the palm of your
hand if you enter this stunning world. The bright colors of the Kremlin and swirling Saint Basil’s Cathedral are one of the
many Moscow Red Square wonders.
2.
Kitay Gorod (the
Moscow China Town).
The Moscow China
Town is very different from all other China Towns around the word. Please walk
through the Red Square and continue your trip to see the embankment of old
Moscow river. Plunge into the atmosphere of ancient Russian village where
nobles preferred to settle in XV century.
3. Walk up Varvarka street to re-discover the
landmark of Kitay Gorod - Palace of the
Romanov Boyars (the ancient Russia elite), which was built in the XVI
century. Tsar from the Romanov dynasty lived there.
4.
You cannot pass it by without
stopping and admiring. The Old English
Court was initially used as the English Embassy in Moscow. Ivan the
Terrible confined the envoy from England because Queen Elizabeth refused to
marry him. Visiting this spot is almost taking a time travel back to the
Terrible but Rich times of Russian history. It is a must travel indeed.
5.
Alexander
Garden is well-known for the solemn ceremony of the Changing of the guards. Come closer and
pay respect to the eternal flame at the Tomb
of the Unknown Soldier. Do not forget to stop by the stone Grotto, The huge fountain in the Centre
of the Garden. It adds this sophisticated feel to the almost 200 year old
garden.
6.
Christ
the Savior Cathedral is the cathedral which is of
a great cultural value to Russians. It’s
marvelous exterior, enormous golden domes, colossal bronze doors and pristine
white walls will touch your feelings. The dome of the church contained over 20 tons of gold of "excellent quality", representing an "unnecessary luxury for the Soviet Union in the XX century.
7.
Patriarch’s
Bridge is another un-missable spot. Put your
adventure on hold. Walk on the bridge
and marvel at the Kremlin, river cruises, monument after Peter the Great and Red October Chocolate Factory, which is
now a nightlife hub for the youngsters.
