I invite those who want to see aristocratic and at the same time historical Moscow on an exclusive walk. We will talk, for example, about how the current relief in the very heart of Moscow is a human-made and a grandiose landscape design project. And we will talk about what true mystery of the capital's center is hidden right under our feet — under layers of granite tiles. How a Frenchman became a Russian patriot, and Italians strengthened Moscow using ancient Roman technology.
More about this excursion
All my tours are exclusive and unusual. There are dates, of course. But more important are the people and their destinies that stand behind the architectural appearance of Moscow. We will take a walk with you along Red, Manezhnaya and Sapozhkovskaya squares, and also visit Alexander Garden. Let's step away from the usual patterns and look behind the scenes of official history: — you will learn how the landscape of these places changed dramatically and how ancient monastic necropolises disappeared without a trace; — we will figure out why Alexander Garden is not just park alleys; — we will learn about the ancient prophecy of the far-sighted elder about Moscow, about the veche bell, about where the застывшая magma lies, what unusual monuments decorated the places of our excursion, and about a very unusual installation by an architect of the mid-19th century. And I, as a Muscovite and great-great-granddaughter of Moscow merchants, will tell you personal stories of my family, which passed on Moscow's secrets to me. See you at the old squares!
For reference only. The program may change.
— We meet 5–10 minutes before the start of the tour; — Before the tour, charge your phone for communication and beautiful shots; — Wear comfortable shoes for the walk; — In case of rain, bring an umbrella with you.
