Date 6th November 2007

Been working and staying in Moscow for the past 2 months working for an international company as Business Development. Was excited to have an opportunity to work in another part of the world with so much history and controversial.

Didn’t visit many place but I will attach some photos I took during my stay so far.

Basilius Cathedral – The famous Tetris building la….Nice place and I been there many time as I like to have coffee at the Red Square

The Park at Moscow State University – I like to take a walk there in the surrounding parks

Cathedral of Christ the Savior – A nice Cathedral just near by Red Square

Victory Park – This park is an ample demonstration of the place of those events in the national consciousness here. There are plenty of fountains, a memorial church and a tall angel-crowned obelisk by controversial city-sponsored artist Tsereteli. In the western section of the park you will find the Central Museum of the Great Patriotic War.

 

Gorky Park – Went to the Gorky park with a friend, the park is big with proper walk way and it is good for the family outing but not much stuff to do when it comes to amusement

Izmailovsky flea market – China Market, I like going there on Saturday to get my goeseies and have Chinese food for lunch. Busy and dirty place to be but it is fun.

The daily Life of Moscow

The traffic in Moscow is horrendous as Moscow is a big city with lighting speed development due to rapid economic growth. I hate traveling by car as your can see below

The metro in Moscow is beautiful and efficient, many of the underground metro station is architecture marvel
