Kolomenskoye Museum Estate

Kolomenskoye Museum Estate
Sprawling Kolomenskoye is a favourite with kids, mums and dads, old grandmothers and young hipsters alike. The gentle sloping hills covered with trees look down towards the river and the remnants of Kolomenskoye's past life as a Royal Estate can be identified in the scattering of different museums like the beekeeping house, the wooden village and the many churches. It's also UNESCO listed except the huge kitsch wooden remake of Alexei's palace which was built in recent years in homage to the fabulous medieval palace that once stood here. Got Tsar fever? Take a troika ride. Or if you want more modern amusements queue up to take a tumble down the hill on an inflatable ring or check out the ice rink.

Admission to estate is free. Admission Museum of front gates 300Rbl, palace 120-400Rbl.

    The official museum website is also in English.
    Inside the palaces and museums there is unfortunately very little English description.
    The Beekeeper's cottage is probably the most interesting building to go in (it also has a tasting area).

    The wooden palace is a modern reconstruction of Tsar Alexei's Palace. The interiors try to reflect the style of the late medieval period but are arguably not entirely historical accurate (although they are indeed very colourful) there are some imperial costumes there and old sketches of the area.
    You do not need to reserve beforehand to visit.
