Bored in rainy Moscow

by dutch2220

Hello all!

Its raining cats and dogs out there but still looking for something to do as its early yrt. If there are any other Americans or Brits/Australians/New Zealanders out there that want a third wheel just hit me up on dutch2220@gmail.com

I'll be here for another three full days, then back to reality in Los Angeles (if you can call it reality.). Perhaps let's rent a car and drive the Golden Ring, or just chill with some vodka!

Let me know and thanks!!!

Hey There,

A great tip I can give you is doing a bike tour through Moscow. You can also do a walking tour, but riding around Moscow on a bike is insanely cool! I have seen much more in a short amount of time then I would have when I´d discover everything on my own. This tour I did, I booked on www.toursinthecity.com, they offer it in dutch and english, did the english one! Remember that the name of the tour was moscow bike tour!

Have fun in Moscow!

Regards,

Stefan

Travel Tips for Moscow

Weather tips from a local

by AVKTRAVELLER

The best time for visiting.
Definitely May (forget about occasional showers) and September. If you are a photographer fanatic, and love “postcard views” please come in May or between end-September – first decade of October. You will be rewarded with inexpressible freshness of absolutely everything around in May. You may become like Pushkin after this.

I noticed that the second weekend in October is ultimately the LAST time before the next 6 months of dull, cold and slushy weather. Raining. As any other thing our rain is special:). Do not worry, it is also consists of water!
Summer rains are heavy and transient showers. I like thunders. they are simply gorgeous, especially in May. Even Alexander Pushkin loved them and said directly: “I love a thunderstorm in May beginning!”. Other seasons our rains vary between drizzle and sprinkle, and usually incessant. Good time to take some cold...

"MAKDONALDS" AND "IF ROSCHE" :-))

by Sylva

I was amused to find out that russian Cyrillic expresses foreigner words transcriptionaly - meaning you write words the same way how you pronunce them.

So here it comes: "Makdonalds" (McDonalds) or "If rosche" (Yves Rocher) :-) It must be very difficult for Russians to learn how to write in English or French.

Anyway if you want a cheap good tasty snack, don´t go to the "Makdonalds", there are many little stands on the streets selling delicious "kartoschki" - big baked potatoes in tinfoil with filling by your choice - butter, cheese, sausage, onion and other typical russian - "I don´t know how it is called" - stuff... yummy!

View point on Sparrow Hills

by HORSCHECK

A panoramic view of Moscow can be enjoyed from the Sparrow Hills plateau (Vorobyovy Gory), which is situated just in front of the Moscow State University (MGU).

From here you see the river Moskva River and the Luzhniki Stadium in the forground, the White House and the Kremlin in the middle distance, and some of Stalin's Seven Sisters and the Ostankino TV Tower in the background.

The Sparrow Hills are situated southwest of the city centre. The nearest metro stop is "Vorobyovy Gory" on the red line.

Sretensky Monastery

by bugulma

Monastery is situated in Bolshaya Lubyanka street and it took part in many significant events in Russian history. It was a church here but in 1397 the Monastery was founded as a symbol of the miracle that happened in 1395. Tatar troops of Tamerlan were near of Moscow and all Russian people prayed God to save them. Miraculous icon of God's Mother was brought to Moscow from Vladimir. There is a legend that Tamerlan had a dream and he saw high mountain and saints came to him and God's Mother was there, telling him to go away from Russian lands. Tamerlan got it as a sign and left Moscow surroundings.
Then the miraculous icon was kept in Kremlin but once a year, when Tamerlan saw that dream, it was brought to the Monastery and festive rites were in the monastery. Many Russian Tsars prayed here, especially in XVII-XVIII centuries.
In Soviet times the militia officials' hostel was in the territory. Church was back to Orthodox church in 1991.

Dachas

by kris-t

Although less than a quarter of Russians live in the countryside, many Muscovites, like other urban dwellers, are still attached to the country. Many live in country homes (called dachas) over the weekend and over holidays, and some times retire to the country when they are old.

I call the dacha "bent sanatorium" :)
