Moscow - Zamoskvorechie (PDF Chapter)
This is the Zamoskvorechie chapter from Lonely Planet’s Moscow guidebook.
The core of Zamoskvorechie is squeezed between ul Pyatnitskaya and ul Bolshaya Polyan-ka, with the district’s gem, Tretyakov Gallery, in the very middle. A pedestrian bridge across the canal leads to Bolotny Island, home to the fledgling hipster cluster of Red October.
