Stories along the route
Институт археологии РАН · 0.2 km
Before you stands a building where time is literally dug up with a shovel. This is the Institute of Archaeology of the Russian Academy of Sciences — the largest archaeological institution in the RAS system.
Академическая (станция метро, Троицкая линия) · 0.5 km
You are standing at the entrance to a station that opened just recently — on September 13, 2025. But don't let that freshness fool you: beneath your feet lies a whole layer of history stretching back to the last century.…
Площадь Хо Ши Мина · 0.5 km
You are standing at the point where Profsoyuznaya Street and 60th Anniversary of October Prospect smoothly flow into one another, while Dmitry Ulyanov Street adds its own special rhythm to this place.
Памятник Хо Ши Мину (Москва) · 0.6 km
Before you stands not just a bronze figure, but a greeting from the distant year of 1990, when this monument appeared on the square that bears his name.
Улица Дмитрия Ульянова (Москва) · 0.8 km
Imagine you're standing not just on a street, but on a living extension of an entire avenue. Until 1963 this was 1st Cheremushkinskaya Street; only later did it get its name in honor of Dmitry Ulyanov.
