Cheap flights and Cheap Holidays to Moscow

Moscow-the emblem city of the former Soviet Union became a favorite destination for people around the world. Besides being the capital of the Russian Federation, Moscow is one of the six greatest cities in the world, hiding stories which could amaze anyone nowadays.

Good to know

Modern Moscow is the result of the transformations suffered in the latest two centuries. It was founded by Iuryi Dolgoruky in 1147, originating its name in the Moskva River, tributary of the Oka River, which crosses along the city. Across time, Moscow was subject to different tragic events. In 1812 the city was burned by the French troops led by Napoleon Bonaparte. Centuries ago it was robbed and arsoned by the Tatars, then by the Polish-Lithuanian army. It was also the territory of different conflicts and riots. Peter the Ist’s coming to power identified itself with the transition of the Russian capital to Sankt-Petersburg. After the October revolution, Moscow became again the capital of the already Soviet Union. The city presents a radial structure, and is the host to 14 million people. The climate is mainly continental, with extremes varying from +30 C in summer to – 30 C in winter.

How to get there?

Moscow possesses a well-developed transportation network, including nine rail terminals, the famous Moscow subway and four international airports, among which is Vnukovo-the place where you will be landing. Busses, trolleybuses and trams operate from 5.30 am to 01.00 am on daily basis. The city is known for its subway network, used by people traveling long distances. The price for one trip is around 30 Roubles, but you can also buy subway passes at the many ticket offices underground. If you plan to spend a few days in Moscow you can buy a pass for 10, 20 or 30 trips, saving, thus, a lot of money. You can also take the taxi, if it is the case, and one trip could cost you around 500 Roubles. Nevertheless, if you were to visit the centre of Moscow, we would recommend you to do it by foot and enjoy its splendor.
