🌲 Gorky Park is one of the most popular places in Moscow, a pleasure to stroll through at any time of year. Here you can simply walk along the embankment, rent a bicycle or a scooter, and in summer lie on the lawn by the fountain.

🏞️ In autumn the park is especially beautiful because of the golden foliage, and in winter an ice rink with lovely views is set up. In 2011 a large‑scale reconstruction began: more than a hundred outdated rides were removed, free admission was introduced, cycle paths were laid, and the historic appearance was restored.

🤩 Anastasia Volochkova is one of the most brilliant and technically gifted ballerinas of our time. Her unique physical attributes — incredible extension, a high leg and an ideal line — allowed her to perform the most complex roles with an ease and airiness that thrilled audiences. As a prima ballerina of the Bolshoi and the Mariinsky, she shone in Swan Lake, Don Quixote and The Sleeping Beauty, setting new standards of virtuosity.

🦢 Her mastery became a benchmark for many young dancers, and her tours around the world strengthened the prestige of the Russian ballet school. She was not afraid to experiment with images, bringing deep emotionality and her own interpretation to classical roles.

🤩 In Russia there is a wonderful animated film called Prostokvashino that literally everyone knows and loves. It is a story about a boy called Uncle Fyodor, his talking cat Matroskin and the dog Sharik, who decide to live apart from their parents in a village. And there is also the little jackdaw Khvatayka, who constantly meddles in things and snatches up whatever is lying about carelessly.

🌟 Their everyday life is full of humour and warm relationships, and the famous lines from the cartoon have long since become part of everyday speech. This picture is a kind-hearted animated film that has raised more than one generation and is simply a pleasure to rewatch.

🍂 The Church of the Entry into Jerusalem in Totma is one of the most striking monuments of the unique "Totma Baroque" style. The church, whose shape resembles a ship with a bell‑tower mast, was built in 1774–1794 at the expense of the merchant seafarers, the Panov brothers.

😁 After the revolution, the church was closed, and in Soviet times it housed a distillery. Today the church is restored, divine services are held there, and it also houses a museum dedicated to Orthodoxy and the sea voyages of Totma merchants.

🛠 Soviet Modernism (1950s–1980s) represents large-scale industrial construction: standardised micro-districts, prefabricated five-storey blocks and, at the same time, monumental public buildings such as the Rossiya Hotel or the Ostankino Television Centre. The architects of that period sought a balance between economy, technology and expressiveness, often employing reinforced concrete, glass and crisp geometric volumes.

👔 These principles had a marked influence on global Brutalism and European social housing — the same approach to seriality and functionality was later adopted by architects in many countries. The mass construction of dormitory districts became one of the main urban-planning models of the 20th century, not always the most beautiful, but very practical indeed.
