Zaryadye

Zaryadye is a contemporary park in central Moscow covering 13 hectares and combining natural environments with architectural design. Four different Russian climate zones—forest, steppe, tundra, and floodplains—are recreated across the landscape alongside buildings and spaces for public use.

The area began as a trading settlement outside the Kremlin walls in the 12th century, with its first recorded mention occurring during a major fire in 1365. After existing as an industrial zone for decades, the location was rebuilt from the ground up beginning in the 2000s to create a public space.

Today the space functions as a cultural venue with a concert hall, media center, and exhibition areas where visitors encounter displays and performances about Russian history. People gather here to experience contemporary presentations that make local heritage accessible to the public.

The space is reachable from several directions and connects directly to public transportation routes, making arrival straightforward. An underground parking garage accommodates vehicles if you are driving to the location.

A striking pedestrian bridge arches across the Moskva River for approximately 70 meters without visible supporting columns, opening up views toward the old city center and surrounding buildings. This structural design allows unobstructed sightlines across the river and toward neighboring monuments.
