Moscow

Moscow is the capital of Russia. Moscow was first mentioned in a chronicle in 1147. Its places of interest include numerous monuments of ancient Russian architecture such as the Pokrovsky (Intercession) Cathedral (16-th century), the Novodevichy Convent (early 16-th century) etc.

There are 66 museums in Moscow, among them the Tretyakov Art Gallery, the A. S. Pushkin Fine Arts Museum.

The Kremlin is the central and most ancient part of Moscow, and one of the most beautiful architectural ensembles in the world. The first wooden Kremlin, fortified by a rampart was built in 1156 on Borovitsky hill. The walls and towers of white stone were erected in 1367. The brick walls and towers were erected in 1485-95. The towers acquired their current circular shape and tent-like tops in the 17-th century.

Remarkable relics of casting art, the Tsar-cannon (16-th century) and the Tsar-bell (18-th century), are also exhibited in the Kremlin. Permanent exhibitions of the Russian Diamond Foundation, the Armory and other museums are open to the public in the Kremlin as well. The Kremlin is the residence of the President of Russia.

One should agree that Red Square is the most beautiful square in Moscow. It was formed at the end of the 15-th century. On the west side it is enclosed by the Kremlin wall, previously separated by a moat. St. Basil's Cathedral, a masterpiece of Russian architecture, was erected on the south end of the square in 1555-60 in commemoration of the conquest of the Kazan and Astrakhan Khanates. The composition of the square was altered after the fire of 1812: the moat was filled and the merchant rows rebuilt. The monument to the legendary defenders of Russia, Minin and Pozharsky, was completed in 1818. Lenin's mausoleum was constructed in 1924-30. One has to know that Stalin, Brezhnev, Andropov and other Soviet leaders are buried here near the Kremlin wall. During the Soviet period holiday demonstrations were held on Red Square. It is Red Square which is the zero point of all highways leaving Moscow.

In Moscow, Intour Trans offers its guests a vast programme which includes general and specific city tours, an excursion to the Moscow Metro famous for its beauty and stylish design of its stations, visits to museums, concert halls and restaurants boasting of national cuisine.
