Airline Tickets to Moscow

There is hardly any person in the world, who has never heard about Moscow, the capital of Russia.

Moscow had played the most important role in the life of the country till in 1712 St Petersburg was given this honor. Only in 1918 Moscow got back the privilege of being the capital and in 1922-1991 was the main city in the Soviet Union. Then after USSR stopped its existence it turned into the capital of Russia.

Moscow has history, full of dramatic events. During the centuries it was ruined and rebuilt from the basics for many times. Moscow is the oldest city in the country, but unfortunately all its marvelous wooden houses were destroyed by numerous fires. Nevertheless every time the capital was rebuilt, it was gaining even more dignity and elegance. The best architects from all corners of the world took part in the creating the new looks of Moscow.

So it's not surprising that the architecture of the capital of Russia has the unique mixture of various styles, which creates a really strong impression. There along with the buildings of Stalin's epoch take place the houses, built in the 19th century; in this city amazingly beautiful cathedrals are located near the high-tech skyscrapers.
