We civil engineers have different priorities than the rest of the general population. Moscow's subway system is really the only thing special I know about Moscow.

Moscow's subway system is really the only thing special I know about Moscow. Ahhh….. Lenin’s tomb is one of my favorite structures in the world. I’m so thankful that post Soviet Russia didn’t tear it down. In fact, the Kremlin and all of Red Square, is all pretty incredible. But Saint Basil’s Cathedral is just….odd I also love the Stalin buildings. And the Bolshoi is magical. Hope that’s enough to get you started. Moscow is incredible. thomas, + BenjaminNicholas, marylander1940 and 2 others 1 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike carey Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 Yes, Red Square, or as it was known before the Revolution ... Red Square. I agree that there is much to impress visitors in Moscow. The Metro is up there on the list of those.. Although we in the west know about the Kremlin in Moscow, but kremlin is the word for a citadel in a city so Moscow's isn't the only one in Russia. + Vegas_Millennial 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's nothing better than eating bad Italian food while looking directly at an LED advertising display bright enough that you need sunglasses and SPF 100.
