"Mental Moscow" a Moscow Travel Page by littlebush

I've now been Moscow 3 times.
The first time i visited Moscow for 5 days in October 2007. I was there for the England v Russia football match but wanted to tag on a few extra days after the game to explore the city because I'd always wanted to go there.
The first few days were a little uneasy, as there had been some trouble with the football supporters, and it took time to understand the metro and navigating the city.
After that though I loved it, mainly because of the nightlife.
I was with my brother and a friend and we met us with some other lads, and after we'd seen the main sights didnt do too much in the day, but we partied hard at night, and this place really does not sleep, it puts London to shame. We could find a bar or club open at time and we could even have a meal at 2am, which you'd never get at home.

My second visit was December 2007 and i loved it again. Winter is an intersting time to go as its so cold! although i was lucky, it was only minus 4, whereas as i write this now in early January, its minus 20!
It still had a few feet of snow!
I loved the nightlife again and the fact that the city stays open ALL night!

My third visit was in Feb 2008, luckily the weather was ok, only just about freezing, i seem to just miss the minus 19 as it was a few days earlier.
This time i again rented an apartment, and ate out, but didnt do too much.
Stayed in a poorer area away from the city and realised how different it is from uk.
