Each of the 16 towers has its own name, and two of them symbolise the historical capitals of Russia – Moscow and St Petersburg. Moscow City reveals an amazing view of the city from the observation deck PANORAMA360 at the Federation Tower, where a lift, which takes you at a speed of 8 metres per second, is located.
