Visit Moscow Maket (replica of Moscow city): Moscow in miniature:
An architecture Model of Moscow (Moscow in miniature) performed at a scale of 1:400 is really worth seeing. The peculiarity of this city model is amazing detailed elaboration and relief. All the buildings are detached and each of them has four carefully recreated fronts. The visitors will be able to see the mosaic and bas-reliefs on the fronts of the main historic buildings such as, for Example, Bolshoi theatre. If you are lucky, you will hear the kremlin clock striking on the Spasskaya Tower of the Moscow kremlin and the cathedral of Christ the Saviour bells ringing.
While visiting the exhibition Moscow tour guides recommend that you pay special attention to the great results of recreating Moskva river on the city model. The effect of a small ripple is achieved by using a special glue that is applied with strokes of a paintbrush on the organic glass.
