Ramenki District

Ramenki is an administrative district in western Moscow that stretches along the Third Ring Road, the Kiyevsky railway line, and Vernadsky Avenue. The area contains residential neighborhoods, major educational facilities, and diplomatic centers.

The name comes from a village founded in 1389 that took its name from the Ramenka River, a tributary of the Setun. From this historical settlement, the modern administrative district developed over time.

The district hosts Moscow State University and numerous foreign embassies that shape it as a hub for education and international relations. These institutions influence how the area looks and functions daily.

The area connects to central Moscow through the Ramenki and Lomonosovsky Prospekt metro stations. This location makes it easy to reach different parts of the district and the rest of the city.

The area houses the Mosfilm film studios and monuments to international figures, including a statue of Mahatma Gandhi. These elements reflect the city's global connections in ways many visitors overlook.
