Moscow madness!

You could fix all the potholed roads, fine the taxi drivers for overcharging, and even introduce hotel staff to study that strange concept known in the West as 'customer service', but then Moscow would no longer be Moscow. A big city with a big character, Moscow has an energy and pride that's hard to match. Sometimes intimidating, bullying even, the city itself can terrify the casual tourist, but the rewards to be had from taking the time to learn about it and fight back are tremendous! From outstanding restaurants, pubs and clubs of all description, to world-class hotels and just plain old good-valued accommodation, Moscow Life is here to help you get around and enjoy our fabulous city, with information, news, an introduction to Moscow's culture, as well as comprehensive listings of all the best places to shop, sightsee and generally have fun!

In the last ten years Moscow has transformed itself from a gangster-ridden metropolis on the brink of economic meltdown to the home of the largest number of billionaires on the planet, and one of the most expensive cities in the world to boot. Discover the modern Moscow by mingling with the filthy rich jetset at exclusive restaurants, frenetic nightclubs and high class strip joints. Alternatively savour the city's Communist legacy by delving into the Moscow metro, visiting the Seven Sisters or paying homage to Lenin on Red Square.
