Zaryadye provides tourists and Muscovites alike a glance at the historical centre from an unfamiliar perspective and gain a sense of wild urbanism with the onion domes of St Basil’s Cathedral, the Kremlin Towers and Vavarka Ulitsa visible through strategically placed birch trees. Zaryadye Park is undoubtedly a breath of fresh air in one of the world’s great cities, where empty spaces are too often developed into offices, apartments, or luxury hotels. The Znamensky Monastery dates to 1629.
