Here, one can find both history of the capital and its present life. While  working on this book we went to  the ancient Kremlin where grad Moskov (Moscow city) was given birth, to the old  town temples, and to Red Square. We visited  Moscow Univercity, the oldest in Russia, in Mohovaya street, and did not forget to call in its  modern building at Sparrow Hills. We listened to the music at the Conservatory, spent a night in  the Bolshoi Theatre, and visited the Tretyakov Art Gallery.  We could not resist walking along Zaryadye Park, Moscow  boulevards and Arbat streets both old and new, and, of course, Nikolskaya street well-known after the 2018 World Cup to football fans of the planet as the  "most football" Moscow street! Our city is impressing, surprising and inspiring for absolutely everyone. If you visit Moscow at least once you would wish to come again.art polka ebay verh
