"Manor"

How you want to at least occasionally be distracted from the hustle and bustle, listen to the silence, such a rare chirping of birds in the city, see with your own eyes the spring transformation of nature.

In Moscow and Moscow region there are such “blissful” places that reanimate those who come here for May holidays, reminiscent of bygone times, former luxury and splendor, cheerful pre-dinner walks of their owners, which can be easily repeated in our time.

It's about estates. And here the choice is huge: Kuskovo, Arkhangelskoye, Marfino, Serednikovo, Lyublino, Ostafyevo. Many are protected by the state and periodically restored, the fate of some is much sadder.

The beautiful Abramtsevo in the Sergiev Posad district, which once belonged to the fabulously wealthy businessman Savva Mamontov, remembers Vasnetsov and Vrubel. The latter made a miracle bench in a local ceramic workshop, which has survived to our time. In the picturesque "Dubrovitsy", located in the Podolsk region, the Church of the Sign of the Blessed Virgin Mary, built in the distant 17th century and now operating, has been preserved of marvelous beauty.

But "Pokrovskoe-Streshnevo", where the fateful meeting once took place and, subsequently, the matchmaking of the maiden Sophia Bers and Count Leo Nikolayevich Tolstoy, is now in desolation. But after all, this will not prevent connoisseurs of "traditions of antiquity deep" go to the estate for May holidays and admire the facade of an old building, overgrown ponds, the special charm of sleeping beauty.

Events in Tsaritsyno

whole 405 hectares for walking. More 40 workshops and excursions. The famous Tsaritsina ponds and ravines. Palaces, greenhouses, parks, fountains. Even without visiting any event, you will remember this walk for a long time.

Before visiting the museum-reserve, you can watch the official video about Tsaritsino.

Last year, during the celebrations on May 1 and 9, the following exhibitions and concerts were held here:

  • An exhibition dedicated to the work of the architect Andrea Palladio, making it easier to understand architectural styles not only the Tsaritsyno palace complex, but also other historical buildings of Moscow.
  • Exhibition dedicated to fireworks or fiery fun, as they were called in the 18th century. Of course, no one arranged a real salute. But what fireworks looked like then could be seen in the surviving paintings and engravings.
  • On May 2, 3, 4, 10 and 11, concerts of classical music.

Events in the parks Kolomenskoye - Izmailovo - Lefortovo - Lublino

For Victory Day, 4 united parks prepared a concert program last year, which remembered the dead heroes, thanked the current veterans, and told the younger generation about the war years.

The holiday was held both on the street, on the main squares of four parks, and indoors, in concert halls.

What will be the program of events in 2017, you will find out a little later - stay tuned for updates of the article.
