The Secret Of The Orlov Paleontological Museum, Moscow
The Orlov Paleontological Museum occupies five main halls. Connected by crossings, they form a closed sequence, which begins and ends by a tower with a ceramic panel Tree of Life.
The introductory hall is followed by the hall of Precambrian, Early Paleozoic, Late Paleozoic, Mesozoic and Cenozoic. A central position in this hall is occupied by complete skeleton of mammoth
The Precambrian is the stage of the Earth geologic history from our planet. The Precambrian is from 4,5 billion years ago and the Cambrian period from 5,4 million years ago.
Our favorite place in this museum is The Hall 5 of Mesozoic. This Hall represents the organic world at Era of Dinosaurs. A large group of dinosaur skeletons is installed on the podium of the lower level.
The hall 6 of Cenozoic era began 65 million years ago and continues in our time. The Cenozoic is also called the Era of Mammals. About 10000 years ago, in the result of another global warming, modern mammal fauna appeared. From here early humans began to live.

Усадьба Царицыно история
Местность получила нынешнее название Царицыно в XVIII веке. А до этого именовалось Чёрная Грязь. Окрестностями владели бояре Стрешневы, затем Голицыны. В 1712 году Петр І пожаловал эти земли бывшему молдавскому господарю князю Дмитрию Кантемиру.
Екатерина ІІ обратила внимание на местность во время конной прогулки по окрестностям Коломенского, тогдашней летней царской резиденции.Из Коломенского она на лошадях поехала прогуливаться по окрестностям. И когда подъехала сюда она была потрясена очень красивой природой. Императрица Коломенское не любила. Обветшавший деревянный дворец казался ей не соответствующим венценосному статусу. Екатерина купила Черную Грязь у сына Кантемира за него 25 тысяч «рублев».
Строить новый летний дворец Екатерина поручила своему любимому архитектору Василию Баженову. Великий зодчий тогда и представить себе не мог, что главное дело его жизни обернется самой горькой трагедией. И с жаром принялся за работу. В ходе строительства дворцового комплекса возводились попутно разнообразные мелкие сооружения в его окрестностях. Лес и берега прудов преобразовывались в парковую зону с беседками, купальнями, декоративными мостиками.
Строительство требовало немало денег. Нередко Баженов выходил за рамки сметы, и ему приходилось тратить собственные средства. Из-за финансовых проблем имение жены архитектора и дом в Москве пришлось продать. Так Баженовы переехали в казенный домик в Царицыно.
Усадьба строилась более 10 лет. Императрица Екатерина Великая приехала сюда с проверкой не с парадной стороны, а сзади, где еще не все было готово. Царицу устроили в павильон, из которого она наблюдала торжественный праздник сенокоса. По легенде, при осмотре дворца Екатерина не обнаружила ни одного туалета. Итог инспекции: Екатерина приказала разобрать резиденцию до основания и возвести новое здание. Ни один правитель еще не позволял себе такую расточительность – разрушить полностью отстроенный дворец. Причины столь странного поступка императрицы до сих пор остаются темой для бурных дискуссий. Одна из самых популярных версий гласит, что Екатерину смутило обилие в декоре дворцового комплекса масонских знаков.
Строительство нового дворца поручили Матвею Казакову – ученику Баженова. Дворец был еще не достроен, когда умерла императрица. А взошедший на российский престол Павел І проектом почему-то не заинтересовался. Имение постепенно приходило в запустение.
В 1803 году Александр I открыл Царицыно парк для летних загородных гуляний москвичей. А спустя несколько десятилетий недалеко от дворцового комплекса началось строительство дач и постепенно заселялась московским чиновничеством, а также творческой интеллигенцией
В XIX веке казаковский Большой дворец, баженовские постройки перестраивались, разрушались, некоторые покрывались мхом, обрастали кустарниками. К XX веку Царицыно окончательно пришло в упадок. После революции в Царицыне поселился пролетариат. В хлебном доме учредили коммуналки - чуть больше 30 метров на семью. Печное отопление, удобства во дворе, за водой нужно идти на колонку, - условия далеко не царские.
Царицыно на протяжении десятилетий было местом, где собирались самые разные люди. Это были и масоны, и толкинисты, и хиппи, волейболисты и шахматисты.
Почти 60 лет с 1930-х по 90-е годы Царицынские развалины были главной тренировочной площадкой советских скалолазов. Здесь вообще вся Москва лазала. Дворец был очень живописными руинами. Это было самое таинственное место Москвы.
В Царицыно сохранилось очень много подлинного. Это по-прежнему памятник архитектуры XVIII века. Здесь есть потрясающий архитектурный декор волшебной готики. Первые попытки сделать из усадьбы музей появились в 1960-м году. После передачи комплекса в собственность Москвы в 2005 году начались масштабные реставрационные работы, и через два года Царицыно было реконструировано полностью.
Экскурсии по Москве в Царицыно могут стать настоящим экскурсом в историю. Это любимое место отдыха москвичей. Царицыно включает одноименный дворцово-парковый ансамбль, памятник архитектуры XVIII века, и прилегающие к нему Царицынские пруды и пейзажный парк. По площади это крупнейший музейный комплекс Москвы, по значимости – один из самых важных.

Музе́й-запове́дник Цари́цыно - Tsaritsyno museum and reserve Moscow
музе́й-запове́дник Цари́цыно The temple is located in the Southern Administrative District of Moscow, at the Museum-Preserve Tsarina. It is part of the Tsaritsyn palace and park ensemble. Originally on the site of the church was a wooden church, ... about five chapters, covered with scales green, painted with three colors, before the church bell ... chopped, wood, painted in different colors, [1] was built as a parish Streshneva nobles in their name, then bore the name The black dirt. A stone church was erected in 1722 by order of the political activist and scholar, the Ruler of Moldavia (1710-1711 years) Prince DK Cantemir. In the years 1759-1765 at the behest of Matvei Dmitrievich Kantemir church was completely rebuilt (architect unknown). It was built a chapel in the name of the northern Great Demetrius of Thessalonica, created in memory of his father. Soon the church became the prince's tomb - in 1771 it was buried Prince Kantemir MD, and later his wife AY Cantemir. In 1775 for the erection of the palace Tsaritsyn Catherine II bought from Kantemirov their estate. The architect Vasily Bazhenov in the drafting of the palace complex has kept the church in the ensemble of buildings erected.
After creating an ensemble of palace temple was rebuilt in the years 1883-1885 under the supervision of the PN Avalanche: there was a chapel south of the Icon of Kazan Mother of God, has been expanded refectory. The bell tower has undergone significant changes: fixed on a small bunk Bazhenov plans, not above the dome of the temple itself (and thus do not give the height of surrounding buildings of the palace), it was rebuilt in three tiers, becoming the dominant vertical construction. [2] [3]. Sanctification of waters Chapel at the Church
In 1939 the church was closed. In the church building placed a transformer substation in the 1970s - a printing house, and from 1975 - carpentry shop Soyuzrestavratsii. In 1990 the church was handed over for use by the community of believers, and re-consecrated. Abbot was appointed Archpriest George Breev. Were carried out restoration work, which ended in 1998. Храм расположен в Южном административном округе Москвы, на территории Музея-заповедника «Царицыно». Является частью Царицынского дворцово-паркового ансамбля. Первоначально на месте храма находилась деревянная церковь «...о пяти главах, крыта чешуею зеленью, расписана тремя красками, ...перед церковью колокольня рубленая, деревянная, расписана красками разными»,[1] построенная боярами Стрешневыми как приходская в их имении, носившем тогда название «Чёрная грязь». Каменный храм был возведён в 1722 году по заказу политического деятеля и учёного, господаря Молдавии (1710—1711 годы) князя Д. К. Кантемира. В 1759—1765 годах по воле Матвея Дмитриевича Кантемира храм был полностью перестроен (архитектор неизвестен). Был построен северный придел во имя великомученика Димитрия Солунского, созданный в память отца. Вскоре храм стал княжеской усыпальницей — в 1771 году в нём погребли князя М. Д. Кантемира, а позднее и его супругу А. Я. Кантемир. В 1775 году для возведения Царицынского дворца Екатерина II выкупила у Кантемиров их имение. Архитектор Василий Баженов при составлении проекта дворцового комплекса сохранил церковь в ансамбле возводимых построек.

Kolomenskoye (Russian: Коло́менское) is a former royal estate situated several kilometers to the southeast of the city center of Moscow, Russia, on the ancient road leading to the town of Kolomna (hence the name). The 390 hectare scenic area overlooks the steep banks of the Moskva River. It became a part of Moscow in the 1960s.
The White Column of Kolomenskoye
Kolomenskoye village was first mentioned in the testament of Ivan Kalita (1339). As time went by, the village was developed as a favourite country estate of grand princes of Muscovy. The earliest existing structure is the exceptional Ascension church (1532), built in white stone to commemorate the long-awaited birth of an heir to the throne, the future Ivan the Terrible. Being the first stone church of tent-like variety, the uncanonical White Column (as it is sometimes referred to) marked a stunning break from the Byzantine tradition.
The church reaches toward the sky from a low cross-shaped podklet (ground floor), followed by a prolonged chetverik (octagonal body, and then an octagonal tent, crowned by a tiny dome. The narrow pilasters on the sides of the chetverik, the arrow-shaped window frames, the three tiers of the kokoshniks and the quiet rhythm of stair arcades and open galleries underline the dynamic tendency of this masterpiece of the Russian architecture. The whole vertical composition is believed to have been borrowed from hipped roof-style wooden churches of the Russian North. Recognizing its outstanding value for humanity, UNESCO decided to inscribe the church on the World Heritage List in 1994.
The great palace and other structures
Tsar Alexis I had all the previous wooden structures in Kolomenskoye demolished and replaced them with a new great wooden palace, famed for its fanciful, fairytale roofs. Foreigners referred to this huge maze of intricate corridors and 250 rooms, as 'an Eighth Wonder of the World'. Although basically only a summer palace, it was the favorite residence of Tsar Alexis I. The future Empress Elizabeth Petrovna was born in the palace in 1709, and Tsar Peter the Great spent part of his youth here. Upon the departure of the court for St. Petersburg, the palace fell into disrepair, so that Catherine II refused to make it her Moscow residence. On her orders the wooden palace was demolished in 1768, and replaced with a much more modest stone-and-brick structure.
Fortunately, detailed plans of the Alexis I palace survived. The Moscow Government has completed a full-scale reconstruction in 2010. The rebuilt palace stands approximately 1 kilometer (0.62 mi) to the south of its original location near the White Column, in order to preserve the historic foundations. The palace erected by Catherine the Great in 1768 was demolished in 1872, and only a few gates and outside buildings remain.

Tsaritsyno Moscow - Rusia
The estate is known from the late 16th century, when it belonged to Tsarina Irina, sister of Tsar Boris Godunov. At that time it was called Bogorodskoye. In the 17th century it belonged to the Streshnevs and then to the Galitzines.
In 1775, the estate was bought by empress Catherine the Great, who happened to be passing through the area and fell in love with the picturesque beauty of the land. It received its present name, which means “Tsarina’s”.
In 1776-85 architect Vasili Bazhenov built a palace for the Empress there. When the palace was almost complete, the Empress visited Tsaritsyno to inspect it. She declared the rooms to be too cramped and dark, and the palace unlivable. As a result, Catherine ordered the palace to be torn down, and the architect was fired. The remnants of the foundation of Bazhenov's original palace are still visible in the park.
In 1786, Matvey Kazakov presented new architectural plans, which were approved by Catherine. Kazakov supervised the construction project until 1796 when the construction was interrupted by Catherine's death. Her successor, Emperor Paul I of Russia showed no interest in the palace and the massive structure remained unfinished and abandoned for more than 200 years, until it was completed and extensively reworked in 2005-07. Currently, in Tsaritsyno there are a history and architecture museum, a landscape park with an adjacent forest, an art museum, the Biryulyovo dendropark, and a cascade of the Tsaritsyno ponds.

Gorky Park, Moscow, Russia
Gorky Park (Moscow)
Source: Wikipedia
Gorky Central Park of Culture and Leisure (Russian: Центральный парк культуры и отдыха (ЦПКиО) имени Горького, tr. Tsentralny park kultury i otdykha imeni Gorkogo) is a central park in Moscow, named after Maxim Gorky. In August 2018, the Park's 90th anniversary was celebrated.
History
Gorky Park, located at Krymsky Val and situated just across the Moskva River from Park Kultury Metro station, opened in 1928. The park followed the plan of Konstantin Melnikov, a widely known Soviet avant-garde and constructivist architect, and amalgamated the extensive gardens of the old Golitsyn Hospital and of the Neskuchny Palace, covering an area of 300 acres (120 ha) along the river. The history of the Neskuchny Garden can be traced back to 1753, when it emerged in the area between Kaluzhskaya Zastava and Trubetskoy Moskva river-side estate. The neighboring area to Neskuchny Garden, from Krymsky Val to Neskuchny Garden, received little attention right up until the 1920s. Initially it was covered with park gardens, meadows and vegetable gardens belonging to the owners of neighboring estates. It formed a wasteland by the end of the 19th century, and served as a waste heap.
The First All-Russian Agricultural and Handicraft Industries Exhibition opened in 1923 on the wasteland that had been cleared during the course of communist community work days. A resolution for the exhibition was passed on 19 October 1922 and the exhibition opened one and a half years later on 19 May 1923. After bidding for the exhibition's layout plan, which proposed four arrangements — Sokol, Khodynskoye Pole, Petrovsko-Razumovsky park and the river areas near Krymsky bridge — preference was given to the last option.
On 15 March 1928 by a resolution of the Presidium of the Moscow Council, the Agricultural and Handicraft Industries Exhibition was enlarged and transformed into the Central Park of Culture and Leisure — the country’s first park of its kind, which was referred to as an outdoor cultural enterprise. In 1932 the park was named after M.A. Gorky. The idea of a need for a central park of culture and leisure in Moscow arose in the late 1920s in relation to Moscow's reconstruction with notions of a socialist city of the future.
