37 Reviews Formally a pub, provides all dishes accompanying pint of beer, especially fish. Vobla is dried salted species of fish, perhaps the most popular beer snack. Howewer I eat it with orange juice. Dim light, basement stationing, hostess, enough spare seats. I don't drink beer so ordered trout and Cola....
41 Reviews Hi people, I wanna to say few words about fabrique, which is situated in Moscow. This is a big city with a lot of places to go. Last time I was there I enjoyed all the time. True it is a little bit expensive but not bad for one night. Large dance floor and nice stuff and especially bartenders :)...
14 Reviews I found that if you're a business traveler and you're looking to meet someone special in Moscow and especially if you don't speak English, it might be easier to use an English speed dating service - I encountered one by accident in club B2, they are having event every Wednesday at 8PM. The hostesses...
107 Reviews The Moscow metro is apparently twice as busy as the London and New York undergrounds combined... and I concur they were ludicrously busy! Busy but never packed like sardines as in London. The Moscow metro runs a smooth, easy to use, efficient, cheap and regular service and it makes getting around...
47 Reviews Although his rate appeared high, I hired "Uncle Pasha" (www.moscowdrivers.net) for $80 and haven't regretted it. For this price he saved me a bundle right away at the airport by cautioning me against converting my $US into Rubles at the airport. On our way to the hotel he gave me an informal...

38 Reviews In Russia, you should never shake hands with someone over a threshold (doorway, gap, etc). If you do, it is considered that something bad will happen between the two parties in the future. Also, when it comes to shaking hands, the best advice is to let the Russian offer their hand first. Often...
46 Reviews Foreigners applying for work permits must now undergo tests for HIV/AIDS, leprosy, syphilis, chlamydia and all those other nasty things your Drill Sergeant and your mother warned you about. Tests can only be carried out at state clinics, which means you cannot be tested at home by your own doctor...
20 Reviews Men may approach you wanting to take you out to the clubs and introduce you to women or have women they can set up for you. Some want to rob you or use you for money while others just want to provide prostitute services. Many prostitute services are set up all around Moscow in private flats run by...
14 Reviews Russia still has a sort of dual-pricing system, according to which foreigners are charged often 3 to 10 times more at theatres, museums or sights than Russian citizens. This price system is a relic from Soviet times when tickets for Russians were said to be subsidised. The photo shows the entrance...
17 Reviews Especially for the blue lines, it can be hard to tell the light blue verses the dark blue. Also, if you are color blind, the line coloring is not a big help. However, in addition to color, each line also has a number. This number is printed on the metro maps, and also on the station signs in the...
29 Reviews Despite the usual snowy image of Russia, summers in Moscow are hot, usually upwards of +25, and frequently over +30. Hence, pack plenty of summer clothing - especially as cheaper fashion such as, say, H&M, is harder to come by. And, in general, Moscow is expensive where clothes are concerned,...
17 Reviews On my second trip to Moscow in October 2009 I wanted to take at least one daytrip from the Russian capital. I perused several guide books and finally decided on Sergiyev Posad. Sergiyev Posad, which was formerly named Zagorsk, is situated on the so called Golden Ring, just 70 km north east of...
40 Reviews Vysoko-Petrovsky Monastery was founded in 1380 in the village of Vysokoye by Prince Dmitry Donskoi after his return from the Battle of Kulikovo.
