Moscow is known for the fact that most writers and poets lived or were born here. There are now museums or apartments in this city that are dedicated to authors or in which creative personalities of Russia once lived. Fans of mysticism visit the famous “Bad Apartment” number 50 on 302BIS Street. Mikhail Afanasievich Bulgakov, a famous Russian author of the twentieth century, once lived and worked in this apartment. And it is here that the events of his most famous work “The Master and Margarita” take place.

Here everything remains as it was during his lifetime. On the table you can see the primus, which, according to history, was repaired by the Hippopotamus Cat. This place is monitored and cared for every day. And the entrance is decorated with phrases from this work. Also, it often seems to the guest that something strange is happening in this room. And experienced people, when something creaked or fell in the building, say: “It’s Koroviev and Behemoth fooling around.” And another interesting point about apartment No. 50 is that a black fluffy cat lives here, who, according to legend, came here himself and responded only to the nickname Behemoth.

In addition to the apartment, fans of the “Master and Margarita” can walk along the Patriarch’s Ponds and sit on the very bench where Berlioz and Homeless met Satan with his retinue for the first time. In order to avoid those events, there is a sign with the inscription “Do not talk to strangers”.


Museum “Armory Chamber”. This beautiful and incredible place is part of the Moscow Kremlin. The museum is a treasury where memorabilia of rulers, emperors, empresses and noble families of the Russian Federation are collected. Here you can see such things as dresses decorated with precious stones and lace, some of which belonged to the Empresses Elizabeth I and Catherine I. Also knight’s armor, various carriages, which were also decorated with gold and diamonds.


In addition, the crowns of the royals are the main business card. One of them is the famous Monomakh Hat, which is located under a dome made of durable glass, decorated with stones and silk. It was made for the grandson of the ruler of Russia Ivan III – Tsarevich Dmitry, who tragically died and failed to be crowned with this hat.


Another incredible place is the Tretyakov Gallery. This is one of the biggest and most interesting places in Russia. This gallery contains many beautiful and famous works of art.
