Things to do in Moscow, Central Russia: The Best Specialty Museums
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.

It had been my dream to visit this house since I first saw it several decared ago. This innovatory combination of two cylinders with hexagonal windows is in all professional books and catalogs on constructivism in Russia. Now it is a state-funded museum with its doors open to the public. One can see three stories of unusually planned living space plus a basement and roof-top veranda all built at a time when communal flats in old-regime housing were the norm (late 1920s). The guest room and studio are of special interest. Also, the house's outdoor is open during the museum's working hours for the public to wander around in the garden (at no extra charge). It's cool, really.
