Stroll along the vibrant Tverskaya Street, taking in the bustling atmosphere and exclusive shops. Continue to Red Square, so called because of the surrounding red brick buildings.

Pause in front of Lomonosov University to view a landmark Stalin-era skyscraper then move on to Victory Park. Finally, see the Novodevichy Convent, which inspired Tchaikovsky’s ‘Swan Lake’.
