Moscow Sites

With 10 million residents residing in Russia's capital, Moscow is an eclectic city with a vibrant (and frequently tumultuous) history. This major world city offers a love-it-or-hate-it experience to the masses of tourists which visit it, though the majority revel in its unique atmosphere. There are more aspects to Moscow living than there are spires on the Kremlin, so it naturally follows that there are many sites to reflect this and help tourists navigate the city.
