Ce projet est né d’un amour sincère pour la Russie — sa riche histoire, sa culture, son architecture et ses villes étonnantes.
Moscou occupe une place particulière dans le cœur de l’auteur. Une ville où des traditions séculaires rencontrent les technologies modernes, où les rues historiques côtoient les nouveaux quartiers et où chaque quartier garde sa propre histoire.
J’ai voulu créer un espace où l’on peut voir la beauté de la capitale, découvrir ses monuments et en apprendre davantage sur ses transports, son architecture, ses parcs et le développement de la ville.
C’est un projet indépendant et non commercial du studio web ivashkin.tech, créé non pour la publicité ou la vente, mais par amour pour mon pays et par envie de partager ce qui mérite d’être admiré.
Bienvenue à Moscou — une ville qui inspire !

Là où commence Moscou
Le Kremlin, la place Rouge, le Bolchoï et la grande rue de la ville — le noyau historique d’où Moscou a grandi en anneaux.
The district includes the Kremlin, Kitay-gorod and much of the former White Town — the Moscow where the city began. The roads to Tver, Vladimir, Ryazan and Smolensk started here and later became the radial avenues.
The name comes from Tverskaya Street, which grew out of the road to Tver and, after St Petersburg was founded, became the ceremonial entrance to the old capital. In the 1930s the street was widened: some buildings were demolished, and in 1939 the former governor-general’s residence was moved almost 14 metres back into the block.
Theatre Square took shape after the fire of 1812. Osip Bove’s Bolshoi Theatre opened in 1825; after a fire in 1853 Alberto Cavos rebuilt it, and that façade with Apollo’s quadriga became the emblem of theatrical Moscow.

À voir
Moscow Kremlin
A fortress, residence and museum ensemble. The brick walls and towers were built in 1485–1495 with the help of Italian masters.
Red Square
The country’s main square, inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List together with the Kremlin in 1990.
St Basil’s Cathedral
The Cathedral of the Intercession (1555–1561): nine chapels on one base and Moscow’s most recognisable silhouette.
Bolshoi Theatre
The historic stage on Theatre Square, framed by the Maly Theatre and the Russian Academic Youth Theatre.
GUM
The Upper Trading Rows of 1890–1893 by Alexander Pomerantsev, with glass roofs engineered by Vladimir Shukhov.
Nikolskaya Street
One of Kitay-gorod’s oldest streets, now pedestrian, looking towards the Kremlin’s Nikolskaya Tower.
Où se promener
01
Alexander Garden
Laid out in the 1820s along the Kremlin’s western wall above the Neglinnaya River, which was put underground. A guard of honour stands at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.
02
Hermitage Garden
An intimate garden on Karetny Ryad with summer stages and a theatre — a classic evening walk.
03
Kamergersky and Stoleshnikov
Pedestrian lanes between Tverskaya and Bolshaya Dmitrovka: cafés, bookshops and 19th-century façades.
Architecture
A district of sudden changes in scale. Ceremonial squares and state buildings sit next to the pedestrian Kamergersky and Stoleshnikov lanes, where Moscow becomes intimate again.
1485–1495
Kremlin walls and towers
Renaissance fortifications by Italian engineers; the tented tops of the towers were added in the 17th century.
1890–1893
GUM
Arcades under glass — an engineering innovation of its time and a landmark of the Russian Revival style.
1825 / 1856
Bolshoi Theatre
A classical portico with eight columns; a major restoration was completed in 2011.
1932–1935
Okhotny Ryad building
Arkady Langman’s Council of Labour and Defence building, an example of early Soviet neoclassicism, now the State Duma.
Transports
Almost all radial metro lines meet here, with several interchange hubs between the central stations. The historic centre is compact: many distances are quicker on foot than by train.
