Sprawling and green Kolomenskoye is a favourite with kids, mums and dads, old grandmothers and young hipsters alike. The gentle sloping hills covered with cherry trees, the abundance of seating and the wafting aroma of sizzling shaslik from afar put visitors in a cheerful mood. Remnants of this estate's past life as a Royal Estate can be identified in the scattering of different museums like beekeeping house and churches. It's also UNESCO listed. Got Tsar fever? Take a troika ride. Just don't bring any beer bought from shops outside of the park or you could end up getting friendly with the police and making a deposit to their own beer fund.
Admission free to the estate. Admission foreigners Museum of front gates 300Rbl, belfry 100Rbl, palace 150Rbl.
