Things to do in Moscow, Central Russia: The Best Historic Sites

May 11, 2022 Janette Largent

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.

Pavilion Armenia

Reviewed By 2_travel_star - St. Petersburg, Russia

You can taste authentic Armenian wines and cognacs and buy them (as well as cheese, sweets, jams and some other quality Armenian goods). You can also have a meal in the national cuisine restaurant.The atmosphere is relaxing. Wines are really very good and affordable, at least for tasting :) The pavillion is at the Exhibition of Achievements of National Economy (VDNKh) behind the picturesque Peoples' Friendship fountain, which dates back to 1950s and features all the former Soviet republics.
