Moscow is a very beautiful city. Here you can find both ancient and modern architectural constructions. In the centre of the city are mostly quite old but beautiful buildings and, of course, here you will also see the heart of Moscow and Russia - the Kremlin and Red square. This exclusive location in the city, and I think there's anyone didn't like it. Being on the red square, you can admire its unforgettable architectural style and feel his unity with Russia. This city also has many places for family walks, including parks, alleys and natural reserves, and among them I have a favorite. This is the Central Park. Gorky Park Pobedy, Arbat street (both new and old) and quiet boulevards-the Boulevard ring. There you can spend your free time with friends, family or meet a lot of new and interesting people. To underscore the importance and greatness of Moscow, it is often called the third Rome. But, I think, of our city and without regard for the Rome exciting and wonderful. Moscow keeps its secrets not only architecture, but also the names of streets and places. Living in Moscow, I feel that I can accomplish anything I want to, if only to make certain efforts. In my opinion, Moscow is one of the best cities to live in, as here there are beautiful places, and an ocean of opportunities for those who need them. Not everyone will like Moscow with its constant traffic jams on highways, huge crowds of people and its bustling and noisy rhythm of life, but for me, this city is perfect, and I feel that I found my place in life. I'm very happy to live in such a city, and I hope everyone will be able to find your city in which it is comfortable and cozy
The Tretyakov Gallery's history began in 1856 from a collection of paintings belonging to Pavel Tretyakov, a merchant. This collection gained popularity and appreciation of Russian public because of Tretyakov's good choices of art for his collection. The building where the collection was kept used to be the mansion of Tretyakov brothers. It was rebuilt several times to accomodate the growing collection. The collection was opened to the public in 1874 as a private musem and was presented to the city of Moscow 18 years later. In 1913 the principle of the pictures' placing in the gallery was changed by Igor Grabar, the Curator of the gallery at that time. It helped to make The Tretyakov Gallery a museum of European standarts. In 1917 the collection was nationalised and the Gallery was transformed into a state museum. The Gallery's collection increased a lot in the soviet period, becoming huge by today, with some 47000 works of art and 1700000 annual visitors.
