The main interest is, of course, costumes of Soviet idols - Maya Plisetskaya, Olga Lepeshinskaya, Lidia Smirnova, Clare Luchko, Fateeva Natalia, Tatiana Shmyga, Lyudmila Gurchenko and many other stars, beloved by many generations in Russia.

In a separate room is housed a collection of museum-apartment of Galina Ulanova. She was a famous fashionista - all her clothes were brought from overseas. She always carefully picked accessories for each costume.

The exhibition organizers sought to identify the originality of the history of women's fashion in the Soviet Union, and also to show the inextricable link with the trend of fashion in the West, despite the "iron curtain".
The main part of the collection is provided by a well-known fashion historian Aleksandr Vasiliev. Among contributors are Bakhrushin Theatre Museum, Association "Museum of Moscow", Moscow Art Theater School.

Myasnitskaya Street

Here is my one of favourite streets, Myasnitskaya street, or the Butcher's. I like it because it has presered the atmosphere of the old times.

Fact 9. 
It all started in 15 century when Ivan the Great built the Church of Assumption of Blessed Virgin Maria behind Nikolskie Gates of Kitay Gorod.

Already in the XVI century the street was built up with houses, shops and butchers and their settlement was called the Butcher's.

Under Peter I Myasnitskaya became the road between the Kremlin and the German settlement, which was constantly visited by the king. Since then Myasnitskaya street has been considered the street of nobles and the new aristocracy. 

Nowadays it's one of the most popular streets for tourists and Moscovites and it's fully packed with cars. :)

And all kinds of stores with picturesque shop-windows. 

And yummy desserts for every taste that will make your mouth water. Moscow is changing and there are so many sweet things coming out every day!

On our 10 Hours in Moscow Tour, you will get the real feel of Moscow

How to explore Moscow

Fact 8

The best way to explore Moscow is to get lost in it! Seriously. You will learn a lot not only yourself and about Moscow, including couple of phrases in Russian, how to read Russian alphabet, the mentality of Russian people :)
Just don't do it at night. At least, not alone

One little tip on getting lost in Moscow: as long as you see the dome of Christ the Savior Cathedral or any of Stalin skyscrapers - you are still in the city centre

Here's our Moscow at Night Tour if you want our company :)

#1 Hotel in Moscow

Fact 7

The premier Soviet hotel «Moskva» is coming back! 
This time as a luxurious 5 star hotel "Four Seasons" with a commercial center consisting of 70 shops, a department store, a hotel and an underground parking. "Four Seasons" will be the closest hotel to the Kremlin, beating The National, Metropol and Balchug Kempisnki. 
Opening late 2014, now accepting reservations for arrivals from October 30, 2014.
This will definitely be a bomb! 
Well, as for now, Starbucks coffee is really good there. :)

Philosophy of travelling

We often load ourselves up when we travel, because we want to be prepared for various situations. This burden of being prepared leaves us with our arms full, unable to receive whatever is there when we arrive.

It leaves us tired from carrying, so that we are not happy when we meet someone new on our travels.

What if we traveled with empty hands, ready to embrace new experiences, receive new foods, touch new people?

Moscow At Night

Was going home tonight and thought "how lucky tourists are: walking around, taking photos and having fun. HAPPY PEOPLE!" Please, if you decide to hang out, take me out with you! :)

Fact 6. 
Red Square at Night is an absolute Must for everyone! Otherwise, it wasn't worth it! Otherwise, you got the wrong idea about local life which has nothing to do with touristy chaos in the morning and afternoon.
