Moscow celebrated its 850th anniversary of establishment in 1998 and was
first founded as the capital of Russia during the 16th century. During the
18th century, the Tsarist Court moved to
St. Petersburg while Moscow
remained the commercial, religious, and intellectual center, whereas Moscow
resumed its position as capital after the Revolution in 1918. Moscow is
currently Russia's largest city and the main center for the Russian
government and politics, commerce and finance, as well as education and
culture. The Russian city is also the most important tourist destination in
Russia, boasting grand churches and palaces from the Tsarist era, museums,
reminders of the former Communist period, and unique shopping opportunities.
Tourist attractions that are highly popular amongst leisure travelers in
Russia include: the Red Square, Kremlin, tomb of Josef Stalin, Bolshoi Opera
and Ballet, Sputnik, travel on the Trans-Siberia Express, city tours of
Moscow, St. Petersburg, Novgorod, and Smolensk, as well as well-known
Russian vodka and caviar.
