Moscow, the capital city is spread across 2,511 square kilometres and is not as cold as many other parts of Russia. In fact, Moscow has a temperate continental climate. Another interesting fact is that Moscow has 160 railway stations over 11 lines. This subway was also awarded the Grand Prize in international exhibitions for its unique historical and architectural features.
Moscow also hosts a number of performing arts, ballet, theatre and film activities. The Moscow International Centre for the Performing Arts has played an important role in revolutionising the performance of classical music in Russia. It is interesting to note that Moscow also supports the development of the circus through the Moscow Circus and the Moscow State Circus.
Important historical centres like Red Square, Kremlin Palace and Arbat Street are also places of interest in Moscow.
