Moscow is an amazing city that is full of new opportunities, interesting people and is the centre of attraction for many. However, no matter how attractive this city is, from its noise and crazy speeds, you often want to rest and replenish your strength somewhere in nature. And believe me, there is no need to go far away at all, because you can find all this in the Moscow Region.
Thanks to this route you can enjoy the beauty of architecture and nature in Arkhangelskoye and even see the estate, where Alexander Pushkin and Nikolay Karamzin liked to visit. You will also visit the nature reserve "Lohin Island" where you can enjoy the coolness of the forest and the purest pine air as well as have lunch in a cafe, where the interior repeats the style of the estates of past centuries.
Recommendations:

Recommendations:
- It is important to keep a social distance and wear personal protective equipment when visiting public places.
- It is also worth remembering that when checking into hotels, as well as visiting museums it is required to have a valid QR-code or a negative PCR-test for not more than 72 hours.

Museum-Estate Arkhangelskoye
Arkhangelskoye is an 18th-century palace and park ensemble located in the Moscow region, not far from Krasnogorsk. There is an old manor house on the territory, which once belonged to both the Golitsyn family and Prince N.B. Yusupov. A.S. Pushkin, N.M. Karamzin, V.A. Serov, I.F. Stravinsky and even the tsar's family often visited it.
The estate has been reconstructed several times, but even now it continues to amaze visitors with its beauty and history. There are the Yusupovs' vault, the Temple of Archangel Michael, the small palace "Caprice", the tea house, the temple-monument to Catherine II, the rose fountain and much more! Here you can stroll along the shady alleys, enjoy the nature and the beauty of the architecture of the past centuries.
Please note that visiting the exhibitions and events from November 8, 2021 you must have a valid vaccination or sickness certificate or a medical certificate with a negative result of PCR-testing done one day before visiting the Museum. More details can be found on the official website of the Museum-Reserve.

There is also a cafe "7 Dacha", where you can have a delicious and inexpensive lunch. The cafe replicates the cuisine and interior of the last century manor houses, which will allow you to immerse yourself even more into the atmosphere of those times!
