Tsaritsyno
Everyone knows that the Russian Tsars lived in the Kremlin,
but they also had their own estates outside the city. They tried to surround
their residences with all possible splendor to duly impress foreign envoys.
Since then, Moscow has increased significantly, and these «suburban» lands have
long since become part of the city territory, some of them even being removed
from its borders. Not much has remained from the old buildings, but even from
the remnants which may be seen now, the visitors can recreate the lifestyle,
daily routines and even the mood of Russian rulers. Especially since these museums
contain detailed and interesting informa tion that can satisfy the curiosity
of each guest.soft hills, undulating valleys, gentle slopes, sinuous watercourses,
going off as far as the eye can see, to the Mediterranean coast. Apparently
only a dazzling sea of nothingnesss - especially in the summer, here pitiless
and violent - these places are instead rich in unexpected amazements: waters
and woods, sulphurous jewels, hidden karstic arabesque, inflorescences, superb
whirling of birds, gildedbeaches and ancient swamps.
