    Art Galleries

    The art landscape in Moscow has changed beyond recognition in the past few years. The state museums are still as magnificent as ever –nobody should miss the Tretyakov Gallery – but it is the contemporary art scene that has Moscow buzzing, with Red October, Winzavod Centre, Garage Centre for Contemporary Culture, and all of them run by beautiful, clever women!

    Shopping

    The shopping is so good in Moscow that we suggest you pack lightly! Or bring an empty extra suitcase… There is up-market GUM and TSUM, and then there are the bargain flea markets.
