Historically, the main merchant district of Moscow, the most inhabited part of the historical center. The winding streets of Zamoskvorechye are literally dotted with ancient mansions and manors, ancient temples, museums and galleries. On the route: Rogozhin's house from Dostoevsky's novel "The Idiot", the mysterious Sorrowful Temple, Shmelev Square, Demidov Manor, House of Writers, Streletsky Chambers, Tretyakov Gallery, Kadashevskaya Sloboda, former possessions of the "sausage king" Grigoriev, Chernigov courtyard, tavern Pyatnitskaya, Leo Tolstoy House Museum, the majestic Church of Clement of Rome Pope, Columba Zamoskvorechye House Museum Ostrovsky, the peaceful gardens of the Marfo-Mariinsky Monastery. A walking tour of Zamoskvorechye is a walk among low—rise houses and narrow pedestrian streets under the unhurried narration of a high-class guide. The local temples are considered an ornament of Moscow, and the Tretyakov Gallery is a treasure trove of Russian and world art. The oldest, Zamoskvoretsky district of Moscow has been known since the 14th century, when the headquarters of the Mongol Khan was located here, where tribute collected from all over Russia was brought and the khan was sworn in. For a long time, there was also an extensive Tatar settlement in Zamoskvorechye. However, today Zamoskvorechye reminds of Moscow as it was a hundred years ago, and this architectural appearance was created by merchants, including Pavel Tretyakov. But how real were Tretyakov, Morozov, Matveev, Mamontov, Demidov, Botkin, Shmelev, Tretyakov, Bakhrushin, Kokorev, Smirnov, Bakhrushin and many other merchants portrayed in Russian, and later in Soviet poetry, prose, plays? From Ordynka Bolshaya and Malaya, along Lavrushinsky Lane and Kadashy to Pyatnitskaya, it's worth taking a walk during a walking tour to see and learn about the unique Slobodsky, Streletsky and Kupechesky Zamoskvorechye.
