i can't say enough about Annette's skills as a travel agent! i was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer back in 2016. visiting machu picchou was a bucket list trip for me. i knew i had to go before i died. at the time i was on high doses of cannabis to support healing my cancer and had serious brain fog. i reached out to Annette to see how she could help me plan this trip of a lifetime. it's been 4+ years since that trip, and i can say it was the most amazing trip of my life. Annette's knowledge around navigating the high altitude and jet lag was soooo helpful. she coordinated with a tour guide there. i literally would get off a plane, a person with my name on a sign would be waiting, and i was off on my next adventure. she literally planned EVERYTHING for me. i told her i wanted to go to machu picchu and to send me anywhere else she thought would be good for me to see. I enjoyed time in Lima, the Sacred Valley, Lake Titicaca, Cuzco and of course the magical Machu Picchu. i traveled alone and always felt safe. i am still blown away by the magic of peru and the peruvian people. i am forever grateful for this angel Annette, and the gift she gave me, in planning such a beautiful trip for me, when i was not in a place to do it myself. and i am still alive 5+ years after being diagnosed with stage 4 cancer! never give up! go live your life. have Annette plan a bucketlist trip for you!! today! you don't have to wait until you get cancer!

Wonderful travel agency! Planned a fabulous trip to Peru with excellent guides and drivers. Plus they set up all the COVID testing we needed for flights extra instead of us trying to figure it out ourselves. They also were able to reschedule flights with no effort on my part when COVID cancelled one of my trips. I don't think I will ever travel without using their services in the future. They make travel easy again during these uncertain times.

A gracious THANK YOU for all of the travel arrangements Annette and her team put together for our family. We enjoyed our time in Peru, Macchu Picchu and Cuzco. Everything was perfect and the memories will last our family a lifetime! We thoroughly enjoyed our time and we appreciated all The thoughtful and careful planning, time, energy and dedication that made our trip so extraordinary. Everyone in Cuzco were so amazing as well. Lourdes was wonderful and she even got my Kindle (that I forgot in the hotel in Macchu Picchu area) back to me in Cuzco before we left back to Lima! Everyone took the time to make sure we were well taken care of. Roberto was so kind as well as all of our tour guides. Thank you again Annette for making this experience so special for our entire family. With complete gratitude, Luis & April Torres

We just had the best vacation ever thanks to Annette. Everything we did went over and beyond our expectations. Our accomodations were centrally located and good. Everything went well from flights to pick up, hotels and food and the tours. We got to witness some festivities during our stay last June - Corpus Christi and Inti Raymi. We were able to hike and see Macchu Picchu. Awesome!

Eric, I'm thrilled to hear that you and the family had a wonderful time in Peru. I'm sure you've made memories that will last a lifetime which is what we all look for after an amazing adventure and I look forward to helping you plan your next trip! All my best to you!!

RC Elias Travel Service made our family CA to Peru to Machu-Picchu excursion travel/reservations possible earlier this year. Luckily we experienced no real issues with our flights and other travel package arrangrments. Thanks Annette from the Lopez, Santiago, Anjari & Montes family-klan for all your professional services through the years!

I spent all night looking for good deals online and I thought I found a good one, one of my friends mention this agency before so I decided to give it a try, what Tania the travel agent got for our trip was beyond expected , it was cheaper and way cooler. I'll be coming back to get my traveling packages every time summer comes. Thanks Tania !!!! Great customer service , great prices .

I recently did my 3rd trip to Peru with Eias' Travel and was another amazing experience. Annette worked very hard to get the itinerary I requested for middle school student and parents. In the passed I had make the reservations with at least six months in advance and this time, I did it with only 2 months and advance and there was not difference in the great service and effort Annette made in order to make another successful trip. The teaching opportunity the trip offered to the students, was not only to practice their Spanish but, learned and respected the Peruvian people and culture, and worked well together as a group with the different activities the trip had. I am grateful for all the experiences and memories Elia's travel has for many students and families. Gracias, Annette! Lourdes Guillen Spanish teacher Bentley School

The best customer service with the best deals in town! I appreciate their marketing as anytime a deal comes out I am notified through their high tech emails. Annette booked me an amazing tour in the Andes with my friends...needless to say it was a once in a lifetime experience packed full of llamas, pisco sours, breath taking Machu Picchu views, and stunning accommodations. We walked away recommending her to ALL of our friends and acquaintances who have happily followed in our footsteps. RC Elias Travel makes it so easy for us to get out there and see the world...especially Peru!

I have used RC Elias since 2002; both Raul and Annette are awesome. They've always helped me with very complicated itineraries (mixed of multiple airlines) and have always given me better deals than websites. Highly recommend them!

I want to say thanks to Annett, she's owner of the agency ,and also the tour guy from Peru his name is Carlos Vasquez Salasa, he did excellent job , he is fun and nice person, my friend and family enjoy very much this trip, Annett she did very good job to arrange the whole trip for us btw we have private tour.

The best things to do and places to visit in Moscow, Russia

Updated On 14th October, 2021

While Moscow isn’t always at the top of everyone’s Europe bucket list , it’s certainly one of the best places to visit in Europe if you’re looking for a more alternative adventure! In this blog post I plan on sharing some of the free things to do in Moscow, as well as the best places to visit in Moscow, so that you can enjoy some of the best things to do in Russia! 

Moscow, the capital of Russia, sits in the European part of the country. It’s an incredibly beautiful city, which I personally found to be more beautiful than Saint Petersburg (which is often people’s preference). The capital is certainly a lot busier, and less laid back than Saint Petersburg , but it’s a much more colourful and vibrant city, full of stunning and unique architecture.

Visiting famous landmarks such as The Kremlin and St Basil’s Cathedral, enjoying some of the green space in Gorky Park, watching a ballet in the Bolshoi Theatre… these are just a few reasons that you should visit Moscow! On top of that, because of visa restrictions (we’ll get onto that later), it’s also one of the most unique destinations in Europe. 

There is a common misconception that Moscow is a dangerous city, but now that I’ve visited, I don’t believe this to be true. I would say the same rules apply here as to other large cities: avoid walking in dark areas alone at night, keep an eye on your belongings on public transport, and be streetwise. There’s no reason to avoid visiting this energetic city and miss out on these amazing things to do in Moscow! 

It would take months if you wanted to truly explore Moscow because it’s a huge city, but I’m going to share some of my favourite things to do in Moscow and places to visit in Moscow so that you can prepare for your upcoming adventure! Even if you’re only there for a few days, you should be able to fit in these highlights from my trip.

Where is Moscow?

If you’re wondering ‘Where is Moscow, Russia?’ then you’ve come to the right place! Moscow in in west Russia, the European part, and it’s the capital city. 

How do you get to Moscow?

Getting a visa for moscow:.

To get into Russia, you need to get a visa. The processing time is approximately 20 days, and you’ll need to have your fingerprints taken at a visa centre in London , Edinburgh or Manchester. You can find out more about getting a visa for Russia here.  

Getting to Moscow:

Once you’ve got your visa, the easiest way to get to Moscow from the UK is by flying. Direct flights between London and Moscow take just under four hours, and with an airport layover you’re looking at a 6-7 hour trip. You can also fly in from many other major European and international cities. 

Top tip: Check out flights to and from Copenhagen on  Skyscanner here.

16 best places to visit in Moscow...

1. st basil’s cathedral.

The most iconic building in Russia and one of the most iconic buildings in the world. St Basil’s Cathedral is one of the best places to visit in Moscow, if not the best! 

St Basil’s is situated on Red Square, where you’ll also find many other popular places to visit in Moscow. In my opinion this still stands out against them all. There’s something about the multi coloured domes against the Moscow skyline that I found quite spectacular. 

Although I’d already been in Russia for several days, it wasn’t until I was at this amazing piece of architecture that I really felt I was in Russia.

The cathedral was built by order of Ivan the Terrible, and apparently after the architect completed it, Ivan blinded him so that he could never build anything more beautiful. Whether or not this story is true, it certainly adds a bittersweet feeling as you stand admiring the beauty of St Basil’s Cathedral.

Inside is a museum displaying many historic items once used at the cathedral, which costs 700 rubles to enter. In my opinion it’s worth the entry fee, as simply seeing the ornate interior walls is a spectacle in itself.

2. The Kremlin

This historic fortress that sits on Red Square is probably the largest landmark and one of the most popular places to visit in Moscow. It’s the official residence of the President, although he doesn’t actually live there. It’s been rebuilt many times since it was first constructed in 1147 out of wood, before Ivan III the Great ordered it to be made from stone, which is the Kremlin you’ll recognise today. 

This place is huge, and there’s quite a lot to see. The first problem I had was finding where the entrance was. Even though I had a pre-booked ticket, I was then told I still had to visit the ticket office to exchange it for another ticket. I also needed my passport, so make sure you have yours if you plan to visit the Kremlin. After a lengthy queue I finally had a ticket I could use to enter the Kremlin, and had to go through security. The security here is thorough, so make sure you don’t take too much in with you. I had my pockets full, and it was a nightmare emptying them and explaining each item, before I was finally allowed in. Once inside you can pay for extra tickets to visit the various museums, however there’s also quite a lot to see simply on the grounds if you don’t want to spend too much. 

See more tips for travelling on a budget here. 

There’s so much to see here, including The Assumption Cathedral, Ivan the Great Bell Tower Complex, the Grand Kremlin Palace, the Armoury Chamber and Diamond Fund. There is also the Tsar Cannon (a huge artillery cannon), and the Tsar Bell. The Tsar Bell is the largest bell in the world. An incident with a fire and water being poured over the bell caused it to crack and for a slab to break off from it, which can now be seen propped up next to it.

As you walk around the grounds you’ll hear the sound of whistles. The guards patrolling the area will blow a whistle at anyone walking where they shouldn’t. Even if it’s just on the grass, or towards more restricted areas. This can sometimes be funny to watch, as often the tourists will be in a world of their own whilst a guard is blowing a whistle at them. Sometimes a guard will be stood face to face with a tourist angrily blowing their whistle before the tourist realises they need to get back onto the main path.

This is perhaps one of the more unusual places to visit in Moscow! Gum is a huge department store situated on Red Square. It’s an interesting department store to walk around, with several levels, although the shops inside are certainly quite pricey. It’s a beautiful building when it’s lit up at night, and it seems to fit in nicely amongst the other famous sights on Red Square. Even if you don’t plan to buy anything here, one of the best things to do in Moscow is to take a quick look inside, although bear in mind there are usually security checks before entering.

4. State Historical Museum

The large crimson building on Red Square is now the State Historical Museum. It was originally the first pharmacy in Russia, and later a University before finally becoming the museum it is today.

Unfortunately I didn’t go inside as my time was limited and there was so much else I wanted to see, but if you have the time I think it would be one of the best things to do in Moscow. There are items dating back to the 6th century, and maybe even further. There’s also a library inside storing many ancient manuscripts and the largest coin collection in Russia. 

5. Bolshoi Theatre

Bolshoi means big in Russian, so it roughly translates to large theatre. The Bolshoi Theatre is one of the foremost ballet companies in the world. The exterior of the building is an impressive sight, one of the most beautiful places to visit in Moscow, and it’s certainly worth admiring from the outside. There are guided tours of the interior, but if you really want to experience the theatre, one of the best things to do in Moscow is to watch a ballet here.

I was torn between booking a seat, but the ballets were very expensive. I’d have liked to have seen “Swan Lake”, (as at least I may have recognised some of the music). Unfortunately there were no performances on the days I was in Moscow, so I decided to pass. But if I return to Russia, then watching a ballet will be on my list of things to do.

6. Sparrow Hills

If you want a good view of the city, then Sparrow Hills is one of the best places to visit in Moscow. It’s a bit of a trek outside of the centre, but if you have the time then it offers an escape from the hustle and bustle of the busy city. There’s a viewing platform here which gives you fantastic panoramic views of Moscow.

Nearby you’ll see the magnificent Moscow State University building, which is one of the seven sisters of Moscow.

7. Seven Sisters

Whilst in Moscow, you’ll no doubt notice these magnificent soviet skyscrapers dotted around the city. At the time of construction they were the tallest buildings in Europe, Moscow State University being so until 1997. There are, as the name suggests, seven in total, which are: Hotel Ukraina, Kotelnicheskaya Embankment Apartments, the Kudrinskaya Square Building, the Hilton Moscow Leningradskaya Hotel, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Moscow State University, and the Red Gates Administrative Building.

If you visit Sparrow Hills, then you’ll come across Moscow State University, but I’m certain as you explore the city, you’ll see more of these giants against the Moscow skyline. One of the best things to do in Moscow is to see if you can locate all seven as you wander round the city! 

8. Nikolskaya Street

The start of this street is found by Red Square. It’s one of the most prominent pedestrianised streets in Moscow, filled with shops, restaurants and bars, so one of the best places to visit in Moscow if you’re looking for a bite to eat or some souvenirs!

What makes this street extra special are the thousands of bright lights in the sky above. After dark it looks simply magical with the many colourful lights overhead as you walk beneath them. One of the best things to do in Moscow is to visit Nikolskaya Street after dark and see them for yourself. It almost feels like Christmas in London!

There is another street nearby which also features similar lights, “Kuznetskiy Most”, which is also quite beautiful, but I thought “Nikolskaya Street” was ever slightly more impressive.

9. Izmailovo Kremlin and Izmaylovskiy Bazar

Did you know that The Kremlin in Red Square is not the only Kremlin in Moscow? Kremlin actually means a type of fortress, so there are many in Russia.

The Izmailovo Kremlin is a fairly new addition to the city, having been built in 2007 as a cultural centre. With its multitude of colours and historic style, it has a real fairytale feel to it. There are several small museums here for you to explore, devoted to subjects such as Russian folk art, vodka and bread (yes, bread). Visiting these is definitely one of the more unique things to do in Moscow! 

It’s a little way out of the centre, but it’s an interesting place to visit in Moscow to see something a little bit different, and it won’t be as overcrowded with tourists. 

Next to the Izmailovo Kremlin is the best market in Moscow for souvenirs. You’ll find good and poor quality items, but you’ll certainly pick up a bargain if you take your time and haggle for a good price. Many of the items here you’ll get for half the price you would in souvenir shops in the city centre. It’s here that I picked up several Matryoshka dolls for a very good price. I think I’d have paid more than double, or possibly even triple if I’d have bought them elsewhere.

10. Izmailovsky Park

Not too far from Izmailovo Kremlin you’ll find this huge park, one of the prettiest places to visit in Moscow. It’s easy to get lost here, so try to make sure you keep track of where you entered if you plan to go back the same way. There’s a lot to see in this park, a round pond, ferris wheel, playgrounds and sports grounds, shooting galleries, cinemas and a skate park.

There are often festivals, concerts and exhibitions at the park, on top of firework displays and dance parties.

The main reason I chose to visit the park was to find the painted trees. A local artist “Yevgenia Khlynina” has been painting on trees in this park, and one of the best things to do in Moscow is to explore the park looking for them. One of the most famous pieces of hers is the “Hedgehog in the Fog” from a famous soviet cartoon.

11. Gorky Park

The most famous park in Moscow is named after the writer “Maxim Gorky”. Although it’s likely you’ve heard it mentioned in the song “Wind of Change” by “The Scorpions”. 

There’s lots to do and see in the park with sports facilities and exhibitions. During the summer months this is one of the best places to visit if you’re looking for things to do in Moscow; there are often open air concerts and an open air cinema. There are many statues and sculptures in the park, including a small sculpture park area which features many interesting pieces.

One piece of advice: don’t visit Gorky Park or any other parks on 2nd August if you’re in Russia. 2nd August is Paratrooper day, which usually encourages a lot of drinking in the park, which is not always very welcoming.

12. Arbat Street

One of the oldest and busiest streets in Moscow, and the most famous pedestrian street in the city. Arbat is one of the most popular places to visit in Moscow. There are several shops including many dedicated to souvenirs, but although these will have a good range of goods, they will be quite expensive . You may see street performers and buskers, and there are often poets reciting famous works, if not their own works.

It’s within walking distance from the Kremlin, which should only take around 10 minutes.

There are actually two streets with this name, Old Arbat Street and New Arbat Street. Old Arbat Street is where you’ll find the pedestrianised area. New Arbat Street is a separate street which runs alongside a main road, filled with many bars and restaurants.

13. Metro station art

The best way to get around Moscow is by using the metro, and the metro is a tourist attraction in itself.

Although I obviously didn’t visit every metro station, I believe that every single station is unique in its own beautiful way. Many of the stations I passed through were impressive, quirky or simply jaw dropping. You’ll more than likely pass through many of them on the way to other sights, but I’d recommend the following:  Komsomolskaya, Novoslobodskaya, Mayakovskaya, Teatralnaya, Arbatskaya, Prospekt Mira and Ploschad Revolutsii (be sure to pet the dog statue for good luck).

There are of course many others for you to explore, but these are the ones I considered to be some of the most impressive places to visit in Moscow (even if they’re only metro stations!).

VDNKh is an exhibition centre with many monuments and museums. Now that it’s combined with the Botanical Garden and Ostankino Park, one of the best things to do in Moscow is to spend the day at this recreational centre enjoying a mix of nature and culture. The most popular museum in the complex which you shouldn’t miss on your trip to Moscow is the Museum of Cosmonautics.

15. Lenin's Mausoleum

Despite requesting to be buried with his mum in St Petersburg, it is at the foot of the Kremlin on Red Sqaure that you will find Lenin’s Mausoleum, where Vladimir Ilych Lenin has been frozen in time since 1924. It’s only open for a few hours a few times per week. Photography is not allowed, and you should line up on the western corner of the square (near Alexander Garden) to wait you turn to see the embalmed body. 

16. Novodevichy Convent

Novodevichy Convent, on the UNESCO World Heritage List, is one of the most beautiful places to visit in Moscow. Located south west of the centre you’ll find this stunning monastery. Inside you’ll find a cathedral and several churches, surrounded by high walls and 12 towers.

Travel Thoughtfully in the Holy Land

Traveling thoughtfully and faithfully is an invitation to travel in a way that positively impacts the traveler; as well as the destination, the land, and the people who call this land home. We serve to provide a transformative pilgrimage for travelers seeking to explore the “ancient stones” of biblical sites. Then, within an engaged, supportive community, we will come to know many of the “living stones,” people of faith who live, endure, and witness within the holy but troubled land. When traveling to the Holy Land, can be overwhelming with the multiple layers of history, the often conflicting and confounding current events, and the significant cultural differences. At Elias Tours, our mission is to build up the Christian community in the Holy Land, so all can be connected to what God has done, and what God continues to do in the Holy Land. The mission of Elias Tours is to link travelers to the faithful Christian community in Palestine, Israel, and Jordan. We provide travelers with resources and ample opportunities for reflection to enrich their experience with planning that is intentional, respectful, and responsible. This is how we live our mission. 

Elias Tours Mission

Support, enhance, and grow our christian community.

➔ Right now, Christians make up 1.3% of the population in Israel/Palestine. Even though this is the holy land where Christianity began, Christians are now a very small and hard-pressed minority in the Holy Land. ➔ Global tour leaders who organize Holy Land tours often underestimate the impact they can make by working with local Holy Land/Christian agencies. ➔ Elias Tours works directly with local Holy Land leaders, churches, schools, vendors, shop owners, and community leaders. and hospitals. Many of our Elias Tours staff belong to, work with, and are deeply connected to these local organizations. They are not just people we work with; they are a vital part of who we are as a community.

Connect all to what God has done

➔ The Holy Land is important because this is where Jesus was born and chose to do his ministry. ➔ These are not just historical sites. These are holy places where God chose to move, to speak, and to be. ➔ Once you walk in these historic and holy footsteps, you will never hear nor read the scripture again in the same way.        

What God continues to do in the Holy Land

➔ Elias Tours values lifting up local organizations, stories, and people. ➔ We connect you to the local stories, organizations, and movements that are happening in the Holy Land now; so, you can participate in the movement of the Spirit in the Holy Land TODAY and BEYOND! 

Additional ways we support you and your community,

Elias Nawawieh, Elias Tours Owner, was born and raised in Bethlehem. He has witnessed the tour industry from many different vantage points. It continues to be deeply important to have our own staff on the ground and not hire out our tour groups to other companies.

● Often when you sign up with a tour organization, those companies work with 3rd parties; and without your awareness, transfer your group to another company. That 3rd party who meets your group at your destination probably has not had any personal relationship or contact with you or anyone in your group.

● Months in advance of your trip, Elias’ team works with you directly, and will personally meet with your group to help prepare and answer questions. They continue to walk with you from the first moment of planning your Holy Land pilgrimage, and continue throughout your entire journey and even after you return home.

● Communication is essential to the success of any tour. By working directly with and through Elias and his team, a personal connection allows communication to flow quickly, efficiently, and clearly. That direct connection to and with Elias Tours staff allows for quick decisions regarding safety, daily itinerary, and ease of travel.

We look forward to thoughtfully hosting you and your communities in the Holy Land. Elias Tours Team
