The postcard photos you see of Moscow depict two of Moscow's most important church and landmark attractions - Red Square and St Basil’s Cathedral. You’ll recognize the latter by its familiar, shiny domes while Red Square is the cavernous plaza where friends meet, concerts are held and people congregate on Russia's national days. Make seeing these during your visit a top priority!
Moscow has a number of don’t-miss live performance attractions that will appeal to young and old alike. Seeing a performance of the world famous Moscow Circus or Obrazstov Puppet Theater will certainly be the highlight of any child’s day. Don’t miss a music and dance treat at the Bolshoi Theatre, home of one of the World’s most famed theatre companies.
