Moscow offers photographers numerous subjects: Saint Basil's Cathedral with its colored domes, the Bolshoi Theatre, the Kremlin and modern art galleries. The city combines historical architecture, parks, museums and contemporary buildings. From Stalin's skyscrapers to Zaryadye Park with its floating bridge, Moscow presents itself as a metropolis of contrasts.
