A huge park devoted to the heroes of wars, very nicely designed with fountains and statues. It was very quiet when we came there, very clean and tidy too.

Constructed in honour of Russia’s victory in the Great Patriotic War (World War II), Park Pobedy offers powerful reminders of Russia’s suffering during the war as well as providing views over the skyscrapers of Moscow. The entrance to the park is marked by a long promenade surrounded by fountains, which leads up to a 142-meter high obelisk covered in representations of scenes from the war. Behind the obelisk there’s also a war memorial museum and further on down the hill an exhibition of tanks, war planes and other heavy weaponry. Beyond that the park stretches on into the forest and down towards a tributary of the Moscow River. It’s great for history buffs and also those who enjoy vast green spaces. Amazing place to walk around! …

Also, there is a scene from Berlin which is stunning. I did not pay 100rub to visit outside exhibits - one for next time. I walked from Park Pobedy metro (at 84m it is deepest in Moscow) on yellow line to museum then on to Minskaya metro to make easy trip. Lots of good photos. Plenty of cafes and toilets on way. …
