Moscow By Night
city is beautiful at night. During the tour you will see the famous places, buildings and streets. The illuminated architecture of the buildings are gourgeous when starting dark. All my clinets had only the BEST impressions from this tour and loved Moscow!
Here is one more picture from my Night Moscow tour on the first evening of 2008. This photo I took on Bersenievskaya embankment, opposite side to cathedral of Christ the Savoir, and nearby of the Patriarch Bridge. It were so nice reflections of its lights on the partly frozen surface of Moscow-River (Moskva-Reka) so I decided to make one more shot from this angle... I have so many pictures of this cathedral in a day or a night times, in different seasons and weather conditions, and I think now that it could be wise to make special photo album for this cathedral on my website, what you think?
I would like to say sorry to people, who don't like graffito on walls of buildings, fences or any constructions... Here, in Moscow, actually it very hard to find this stuff and the sign here on the river wall is just my greeting to you made in Photoshop :-).
The Cathedral of Christ the Savior is a great monument to Russian military glory and superb example of Russian architecture. It was opened in 1883, in a memory of Russian victory over Napoleon in 1812. This Cathedral had been under construction for about 40 years (1839-1883), but it was destroyed in one day, in December 5th, 1931 - during the Stalin's time, because communists decided to build "Soviet Palace" for their meetings. The Cathedral was recovered during 1995 - 2000. The pedestrian bridge, called Patriarch Bridge, was added in 2004 to finish architectural ensemble surrounding this cathedral.
