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.

The historic “Raketa” mechanical watches are produced in Russia and the shop is right in the center of Moscow. The Petrodvorets Watch Factory "Raketa", founded by the Emperor Peter the Great in 1721, is Russia’s oldest Factory. The Factory started producing Pobeda watches (which means in Russian “Victory”) in 1945 after World War II and Raketa watches (which means in Russian “Space Rocket”) in 1961 in honor of the first manned space flight by the Russian cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin. Today the Watch Factory “Raketa” is one of the very few watch manufacturers in the world producing its own mechanical movements from “A” to “Z”. The movement “Raketa – Avtomat” is considered to be one of the most reliable in the world.
My Russian friend told me about this small stor near the Red square when I liked her unusual watch. We went with her to this store together and I bougt a completely amazing watch "Russian code". The hands of this watch reproduce the natural movement of the planets in the universe: like the planets, they turn anti-clockwise! I fell in love with this watch. The pleasant salesman told a lot of amazing facts about how watches are made in St. Petersburg from A to Z, preserving the traditions of the oldest manufactory in Russia.

If you wanted to do you grocery purchase during your Moscow stay, Yeliseev's Food Hall could be your only choice. Positives: 1) 24-hour operation. 2) Great variety of food, drinks, grocery and even caviar. (I bought 4 bottles). 3) Great interior decoration. 4) Friendly staff though limited English speaking. 5) Opposite to the Food Hall, there is a small cosy cafe where you can have a rest. High recommend to all if you stay in Moscow center. Hope you like my review.
