Moskow
| Russia is a country of extremes and nowhere is it more obvious than in Moscow: it is has hard as its winters and and as graceful as the ballerinas at the Bolschoi. And as the folks at Lonely Planet adequately state, Moscow is the barometer and nucleus of the changes sweeping through Russia. In the center of town, the serenity of the mystical monasteries mixes with the buzz of the high-tech corporate business-world and the megalomanic remnants of the Stalinist past. This throbbing metropolis of nine million inhabitants offers something for everybody that is in town either for cultural, political or commercial reasons. It is our objective to help you discover the Moscow that you want to experience. Our select corps of guides will introduce you to the great diversity that makes Mocow what it is: from the past to the present, from commerce to religion and from the secrets of the kitchen to the ... of literature. |
