Have you ever wanted to know what a real Moscow neighbourhood looks like. A place where people live and work away from the tourist spots. Well, come with me for a walk around Shabolovskaya, a cool little neighbourhood about 7 minutes by Metro from the centre of the city.

  • I've spent one month in Russia Moscow. Criss-crossed Moscow on foot and every type of transportation. Day or night is the same picture, peace and tranquility. Walked from Komsomolskay to Red Square train station. From Theater Oleg Tabakov Cyxarevskaya to Mir Prospect train Station. From Paveletskata Train Station to Taganskaya Train Station . 20 thousand steps and more every day. Metro is a lifeline. Doesn't matter where you enter,you'll find connections underground. Troika monthly transportation card will give an intimated ride underground and above the ground. Pay attention to Music Grand Hall near Paveletskaya. Theaters are for every interest. Flowers sold and bought everywhere. Moscow is constantly being improved, repainted, built, rebuilt, and made accessible. Awesome way to see Sadovoe cycle is to take B BUS. From a Taganskaya to Smolenskaya , from Smolenskaya to Taganskaya. It will complete the circle. Take train #3 to see Clear Pond and along Moscow River. Don't forget the University of Lomonosov Lenin gorky. Ie ., walk , drive, fly , but get to Russia .

I literally discovered you a few hours ago and watched most videos (granted, they're not many yet 😅), liked, subbed, easy decision because two things i love very much are already on your channel title: Scotland and Moscow! (And imagine i haven't been to any yet! Hopefully Moscow within the year!) I am greek and i was happy watching this video in particular, as i already know all the brands mentioned, and all the russian words mentioned 🙂 I've been learning russian since December on Duolingo (+ ASMR and a podcast for listening) and yeah, before anyone laughs i have to say, nobody's gonna learn russian on Duolingo, however it's good enough for the basics. I've known russians almost all my life (and i'm 40), both online and in life, and all of them are some of the kindest people i've known. Happy to have found your channel!

  • Part of the historical center of Moscow is called "Kitay-city". This name has nothing to do with the country of China. "keta" or "kitA" is a kind of piles that reinforced this part of the bank of the Moskva River up to the XIX century! Back in the XIX century, under this wall of piles, on the very bank of the river, there was a whole town of houses of the poor. There were frequent fires here.

But if we are talking about the ancient part of Moscow called "Kitay-city", then this means only one thing: this quarter of Moscow was once fenced off from the side of the Moskva River with special wooden piles called "kita" in Russian.

  • Thanks for the nice walk. Important facts about the urban environment in Russia and the former USSR. You are a young man and you probably don't have children, so kindergartens, schools, hospitals, etc. are not shown in the video. Your neighbourhood in the video has 3 kindergarden and 4 schools, 2 big hospitals. In Russia, according to the rules of urban construction, a kindergarten or school should not be located further than 500-800 meters from each house, so that each child can walk to study by yourself without parents. Every school of 60s - nowadays are located in the middle of block avoiding crossing busy roads to protect safety of kids. Hospitals usually are located at a distance of no more than 15 minutes by public transport or 60 minutes of slow walking. Public transport starting at 4 am to 1 am, in towns at 6 am to 9-10 pm, time interval is not more than 15 min. So you don't need a car if you live in Russia. According to these rules, 80% and more of apartment buildings in Russia have been built. Each apartment in the houses has central heating. Оne boiler plant heats 10-30 thousand people. That's why apartments are so popular with Russians. It's just convenient. If you go to work in the morning, you do not need to turn off the heating and follow kids to school in the morning if they are at age 8 or more. If your kid is small just take him in a stroller to the nearest kindergarden in 5 min. Every morning you go out of your appartment and come back evening after but you always 24/7 have your room temp +21-26. And all utilities are cheap, on average no more than 30-100 USD per month for all inclusive. Everyone in the USSR had the right to receive an apartment for free from the state as property after of 10 years of work experience no matter what kind of job it was. For 70 years of USSR, the state has been building multi-storey typically buildings in cities and towns, because they are more convenient to maintain and cheaper if the government pays for it, and not you :) But socialism ended, and all people remained living in multi-storey buildings and received full ownership of housing as a gift from the state. So Russia is a country where about 80% populations has an own property without mortgage at all.

  • Look how clean and orderly their cities are. Everything is well-maintained and properly regulated, from the metro to other public transport services. There's no graffiti, offensive remarks on the walls, or posters sticking around, which I believe is the main reason for the city to preserve its own character. Moscow looks safer and more secure than our cities. Most importantly, there's no fear of getting robbed or stabbed in the streets, which I believe is a ginormous plus point for Moscow.

  • In Russia, affordable medicine and social policy medicines should also be available, so there are many pharmacies and they are often around the clock. There are also a lot of flower shops (I remember how in Cambridge I tried to buy a bouquet on Sunday, because we were going to visit a university professor and wanted to please the hostess of the house). In Russian cities, flower shops are everywhere, near the metro, for sure, and in nearby points they also work around the clock. And most Russians do not live in rented apartments, but in their own flat. There are completely different laws for apartments and flat (an flat is considered a living space, but apartments are not, therefore taxes are higher on apartments, but there are no requirements for the amount of direct sunlight that should fall on the windows of housing;n my opinion, it is impossible to register in the apartment). But at the same time, many Russians have a cottage with a garden outside the city, where they go on weekends. Just look at the traffic map on Saturday morning from Moscow and back on Sunday evening. Someone has a small house built by their grandfather, someone has a mansion. My family has 5 dachas - my grandmothers, my parents, my brothers, my aunts, my husband have one from his parents and my husband and I are building a new house together, by the lake. Libraries are being renovated, in addition to books, there should now be an IT-zone and facilities for master classes. We are eat ice cream not to cool down, but as a dessert.😂 And what difference does it make, if you want something? Moreover - 25C ice cream is not so cold anymore. Just try it. But I advise you to take creamier varieties in winter, "plombeer", for example, or "lakomka". I think the British will also be surprised by the question "why do you drink hot tea in the summer heat?". The weather cannot interfere with tea drinking. Yandex surprised me, they usually worked fine. 🙈

    • К слову: Даже в середине 19 века (это, не так уж и давно), при постройке оборонительный укреплений бастионов Севастополя (в Крымская война 1854-55 годов) применялось вот-эта старинная (Китайгородская) технология постройки оборонительных укреплений: Плелись высокие корзины (даже без дна, такой цилиндр, ставился на землю и наполнялся землей, и так строили быстровозводимые бастионы линии обороны города Севастополя, которые можно увидеть сегодня на изображении панорамы обороны Севастополя - для тех, кто хочет увидеть воочию, факт о том, как на самом деле выглядело понятие стена их киты... это были составные плетёные элементы (цилиндры из плетённых жердей, наполненные землей), которые изображены на панораме бастионов обороны города Севастополя. - Что не сложно сделать в сети... А, вот, уже кирпичную «китайгородскую» стену в Москве строили позже, сохранив старинное, уже привычное на то время название этой линии городского оборонительного укрепления.

  • Hi Jim! Thank you for your videos. I appreciate your positive attitude to my country. Of course, we do have problems, but it’s just nice to hear that we also have “human faces”. I’d recommend you as an idea to think about “Moscow city design”. You may notice that all names of the stores are written are the same from the technical point of view: they have the same size, kind of similar font, distance between letters, etc. You may also notice that we don’t have huge neon advertisements like in NYC or Vegas. We did have them before but it was very disturbing to the residents. All offline stores and restaurants must follow these guidelines. The guidelines were developed by “Artemy Lebedev studio”, if I’m not mistaken. None of the bloggers have ever talked about this, but it does make the “visual daily life” more comfortable. Best regards and good luck, Julia

    • In Moscow, people tend not to interact randomly, even with neighbors. We also find it strange to ask strangers such things as "How are you doing?". Although being polite is always welcomed, simple "hello", "thanks" and "goodbye" is enough. But, just like with most russians, if you actually have common topics or you are already discussing something, then people will open up to you pretty easily. You just have to remember that we take questions at face value, so if you ask people, "How was your day?", they will literally describe their day.

  • The name "Kitai Gorod" actually originates from old Russian and doesn't directly translate to "China Town" as one might expect. In Russian, "Kitai" (Китай) historically referred not to China, but to any distant and exotic land. "Gorod" (город) means "city." So, "Kitai Gorod" essentially means "Walled City" or "Fortified Town." The area known as Kitai Gorod is a historic district within Moscow, Russia, located near the Kremlin. It has been an important part of Moscow since medieval times, and it contains many historical buildings and landmarks. Despite the name, it has no direct connection to China.
