A walk from Troparyovo metro station to the Military Academy and Troparyovo Park
Stories along the route
Тропарёво (станция метро) · 0.1 km
You're standing at a station that appeared on the metro map quite recently — in December 2014. Back then it was the terminus of the Sokolnicheskaya line's southern radius, and trains went no further.
Памятник генералу Михаилу Скобелеву (Москва) · 0.5 km
Before you stands a monument that appeared in Moscow in 2014, but it is dedicated to a man whose name thundered long before that.
Военная академия Генерального штаба Вооружённых сил Российской Федерации · 0.6 km
Before you is not just a building with columns and austere facades — it is the forge of the country's top military command.
Тропарёвский парк · 1.5 km
Before you stands not just a park, but a true landscape nature sanctuary protected by the state. This place holds the official status of a specially protected natural territory of regional significance.
Улица Академика Бакулева · 3.0 km
You are standing on a street named after a man who saved thousands of lives — but more about that a little later.
Воронинский овраг · 3.7 km
You are standing at the edge of a ravine that was once a real river. Imagine: just a hundred years ago a stream babbled here, and now it is hidden underground, like an old secret.
