The political, scientific, historical, architectural and business center of Russia, Moscow displays the country's contrasts at their most extreme. The ancient and modern are juxtaposed side by side in this city of 10 million. Catch a metro from one of the ornate stations to see Red Square, the Kremlin, the nine domes of St. Basil's Cathedral, Lenin's Mausoleum, the KGB Museum and other symbols of Moscow's great and terrible past, then lighten up and shop Boulevard Ring or people watch in Pushkin Square.

As to me, I remember him "live". My parents took me to that circus where he performed for many years and people went there specifically to see him and only him. I saw this monument in the middle of February. A helluva snowstorm just finished and Nikulin's drophead coupé was almost totally covered by a white blanket. I was looking at that gentleman and thought that he would've liked such a memory to himself - open-hearted, friendly, free to touch and climb, for kids to enjoy. This time around there was no-one nearby - inclement weather. Maybe for the better - time to just stay by and recollect this extraordinary and very Russian personality. An absolute must!!!
