Christmas in Moscow.

Have you decided where to spend Christmas this winter? Why not consider Moscow? • Transportation: When traveling in Moscow, taking the subway is so convenient! Those subway stations are so many and beautiful, they are like palaces. You can reach many attractions by taking the subway, and you can also experience it by bus and tram. • Attractions: • Red Square: This is an iconic place in Moscow, as important as Tiananmen Square in Beijing. There are precious buildings all around, and the ground is paved with large stones, which has a special sense of history. • Kremlin: Right next to Red Square, there is a lot going on here, with many palaces, churches and towers. The president's office is also here, with guards standing guard. The scene is very solemn. Buildings such as the Assumption Cathedral and the Archangel Cathedral are very beautiful, and the murals and decorations inside are very gorgeous. • St. Basil's Cathedral of the Assumption: This church is located at the south end of Red Square. The colorful onion dome is so eye-catching! Just like a castle in a fairy tale, each dome has a different color, which is very dazzling in the sun and looks great when taking pictures from all angles. • Moscow State University: The main building is very majestic, with a tall spire, and the building is large and magnificent. The surrounding environment is also good. There are many students nearby and you can feel the strong academic atmosphere. • Sparrow Hill: Here you can overlook the whole of Moscow and have a panoramic view of the city. Especially at night, when the lights are on, the scenery is amazing. There is also the Luzhniki Stadium next to it, which has hosted many large-scale events. • Novodevichy Cemetery: This is like an art palace, where many Russian celebrities are buried. Each tombstone is a unique work of art. There is the tombstone of the ballet queen Ulanova, and the black and white tombstone of Khrushchev, which is particularly interesting. • Food: The borscht is sour and sweet, and the braised beef is tender and juicy, both are super delicious. The Russian-style burrito is chewy, and the more you chew it, the more delicious it becomes. Don’t miss the street pies and sausages, they taste great. • Accommodation: It is recommended to stay in a hotel or B&B near Red Square or next to the subway station. It is very convenient to go out and come back.
