The imperial capital
Moscow, Russia
Red Square, the Kremlin and a city that moves between grand history and restless modern energy.
Moscow is Russia's capital and its largest city, and for most visitors the place a trip starts. The old centre packs Red Square, the Kremlin and the colourful domes of St Basil's into a short walk, while the metro, the theatres and the riverside parks show the modern side.
