Babaevsky Pond, Public pond in Presnensky District, Moscow, Russia.

The pond spans 9,900 square meters with a depth of two meters, featuring a wide footpath and benches for recreational activities.

The current shape of Babaevsky Pond emerged during the reconstruction period of 1830-1831, following the extensive damage from the Moscow Fire of 1812.

The pond transforms into a skating rink during winter months, continuing a tradition established by the Russian Gymnastic Society in the nineteenth century.

Multiple stone benches line the perimeter of the pond, providing seating for visitors who want to observe the water and surrounding gardens.

During the December 1905 revolution, the pond area became a location of confrontations between student militia groups and government forces.
