Patriarch's ponds in
Moscow. Interesting places on the Patriarch's ponds.
Today our best Moscow travel guide invites you to an exciting excursion – to the most mystical place in Moscow!
How can you get to
Patriarchs ponds? Its easy.
You start from
Mayakovskaya metro station, walk along Bolshaya Sadovaya street and turn to
Malaya Bronnaya street. And just in 20 -50 meters you are here.
We pass Chaikovsky concert hall, the Satire theatre and the
Aquarium garden. Here we stop at the first address of our tour, Sadovaya,10.
It is a famous house, where the brilliant
Russian writer Mikhail Bulgakov, lived. Today it is a museum of Bulgakov. And also this place is called "a bad apartment". Lets go into the yard.
It was planned to install a huge monument here to the heroes of Bugakovs famous "
Master and Margarita". But later it was decided to confine with small forms.
There are a lot of fascinating and mysterious stores connected with "the Patrics", as Moscovites have tenderly named this place.
Since the old days the Patrics are considered to be a bad and enchanted place.
Russian writers wrote a lot about it. For example
Tolstoy in "
Anna Karenina" and of course Bulgakov in "Master and Margarita".
In this very place in Bulgakovs great novel Ann has splitter the oil, and the tram has cut off Berlioses had. But unfortunately there has never been a tram line here.
Its nice to have a shady walk here, by the pond on a hot summer day. And in winter its good to skate on an ice rink.
There is a playground for kids right near the pond. And here is the monument to the fable writer
Ivan Krylov, and to his heroes - animals.
Kids will like it too.
Don't forget to rub the nose of the dog Mos”ka and make a wish!
We ll continue our excursion and walk along Malaya Bronnaya street. Here in the intersection with
Kosihinskiy street the first private cafe in Moscowwas located. It was called "
Margarita".
If you walk further, you ll see the
Marco Polo hotel. If you are looking for a place to stay around here, you can see a video clip about this hotel on our
Channel.
We turn left and go up the Maliy Kozihinskiy str to Trehprudniy str. There are some residential complexes and good restaurants here…
The famous russian poet
Marina Zvetaeva was born and spent her childhood here, on Trehprudniy. Her house №8 has not survived, but on the other side of the street you can see the facade of the house №9, built in
1900 by architect Shekhtel.
There was a typography here. And the first book of Marina Zvetaeva was printed right here.
We are finishing our video tour near the wonderful private house of Shekhtel himself. He was the most popular and glamourous russian architect of the
20th century. One day well make a separate video about his gorgeous mansions in the centre of Moscow. And now we ll say bye bye to you here.
