Exploring the Best Park in Moscow for Families and Fun

My wife and I love exploring the city for new fun and interesting places to spend time with our kids - and one of the places we keep coming back to time and time again is Gorky Park, perhaps the best place in Moscow for recreation, a leisurely stroll, picnic or get-together. Gorky park has just about everything you need to have a great time, regardless of age. Although, admittedly, the child-friendly daytime atmosphere switches out late in the evening, when the college crowd takes over!

Ponds with boats and catamarans, several large playgrounds for kids of all ages, a skate park, an outdoor movie theater... Lounges and sunbathing areas, restaurants and street food, and all kinds of equipment up for rent - from electric scooters to bicycles and the like. Not to mention the fact that all of this is situated along the Moscow river, right near the Tretyakov gallery, the Muzeon and the Cathedral of Christ the savior.

There are often live concerts being held in the park, and live music and various events and celebrations are also a typical sight here. And even if you're done with the park, you can always catch a ride on a water taxi or Radisson cruise ship to further explore the Moscow river embankment.

But most of the time my kids and I go here to jump back and forth between the playgrounds and eat ice cream :)

Regardless of your age and interests, if you happen to be in Moscow and have some free time to explore the city, I highly recommend planning a stop at Gorky park to soak in the sights, sounds and the enthusiastic, family friendly atmosphere!
Thank you very much for watching! If you enjoyed the video, it would be great if you'd subscribe for more! Also, I'd love to hear your ideas on what you'd like to see me film in Russia, or otherwise!
