Moscow vacation is better than Paris
Don't go to Paris. It is one of the most boring vacations you can imagine. Who cares about the tower. They have one in Las Vegas. It is two times smaller, but you get the idea. Even French are desperate to see the Kremlin. Like the Napoleon for example. He went in a wrong time of the year, but he did get to hang out in the Kremlin. So can you on a Russia vacation.

A long walk
by TheWanderingCamel
When Moscow's crowded streets and manic traffic get too much for you and the thought of another onion dome, museum hall or historic building has you beat, a walk along the the Boulevard Ring (Bulvarnoe Koltso) might be just the revival shot you need.
Referred to as Bulvar by the locals, it's not actually a complete ring but is more like a horseshoe formed by a chain of 10 boulevards beginning and ending at the northern bank of the Moskva River . They were laid out in the early 19th century and follow the lines of the city's 16th century stone fortress wall. Moscow's aristocracy built their mansions along the boulevards and the gardens quickly became the place to see and be seen as the city's high society folk turned it into their favourite promenade either on foot, on horseback or in an open carriage.
It's still the city's favourite place for a walk, and young women on ponies offer horse rides to children - carriages are harder to spot these days.
Beginning at Gogolevsky bulvar (named in honour of 19th-century writer Nikolai Gogol), next to the spanking new white and gold Cathedral of Christ the Savior (and exact replica of the one Stalin demolished) and ending at Yauzsky bulvar will take you a couple of hours and through page after page of Moscow's history. This secton is presided over by a statue of Gogol and artists' stands of art works for sale add colour.
Gogol gets a plinth on Nikitsky bulvar too, in a much more sombre mood - the square here is the junction of Arbat and New Arbat streets.
Keep on walking and you'll come to Tverskoi bulvar, the first to be built and home to an ancient willow tree reputed to be 300 years old. Café Pushkin at No 26 is a faihful reproduction of one of the boulevard's aristocratic mansions with a rooftop terrace that gives you a great view.
Pushkin presides over the square named for him at Strastnoy Bulvar - he's looking pensive up there on his plinth.
Petrovsky bulvar still has lots of its original 19th century buildings and the convent of the Nativity of Our Lady that gave Rozhdestvensky bulvar its name is still standing too.
Chistoprudny bulvar comes after Sretensky bulvar and has a very pretty pond and open air art exhibitions are often staged here but this boulevard is very popular with beer-drinking youths so you might not want to hang around too long.
The Ring ends with Yauza bulvar and the the eastern end of Moskvoretskaya Embankment on the Moskva River.

Moscow resident having a nap in a warm spot
by yumyum
This dog made itself comfortable riding the metro while outside in the streets it was -18 degrees. Right he was and he even got a sausage that was lying on the floor. I squeezed myself in the little space you see there and I got big smiles and friendly approval from all around!
