Best Moscow Tourist Attractions

There are countless tourist attractions in Moscow so much so that it would take a lot of time to do them all. A planned itinerary will help you see all the best attractions without losing out on the top rated sightseeing spots.

You can start out by seeing Red Square rich in surrounding attractions. The Kremlin, Russia's seat of power sits on one side of the Square with the magnificent GUM Shopping Centre on the other side. You can see St. Basil's with its famous onion domes as well as spend time in the State Historical Museum. Lenin's Mausoleum is also near to the Red Square.

A minute away by foot is the stunning Theatre Square. Enjoy the Bolshoi Theatre and better still see a performance. You can head for Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts that lauds Russia’s grandeur and style.

A little further from the heart of Moscow to the West, is a comparable scenic district - the pedestrian Old Arbat Street. It has been the home for legends like Pushkin and Tolstoy.
