Cultural and educational center and «The bad apartment» Bulgakov are together

See for yourself who lies under the feet of the «Bulgakov’s house».  I’m not just once or twice a year – from the moment when, as in 2005, she moved to Moscow. This was one of my first Moscow walks. Surprisingly, but every time I come back here for new and new occasions. Now, here is a small exhibition and a cafe, where is very convenient to meet. Not so long time ago, and theatre. I like to see from a dilapidated apartment eventually grew a real cultural centre.

Perhaps the dramatic gap between creator and creation because Vladimir looks toward the center of Moscow , the Kremlin.

Triumphalnaya square not far from the ARTIST HOSTEL in Moscow, the underground station «Mayakovskaya»

This year, Triumph Square became almost completely pedestrian . In the vicinity Mayakovka best time for walking in the winter – this evening when all the lights are lit , and the public rushes into theaters . Summer time of day does not really matter.

Same with the monument height of the Christmas tree. Vladimir Mayakovsky is known more as a poet, but , in fact , he was also a playwright and director. On the right hand of the monument is the Concert Hall named after PI Tchaikovsky behind him – Satire Theatre , Theatre Mossovet .

Mayakovskaya is one of the most beautiful stations of the Moscow metro. There is a myth that there are fragments of its design “airship Tsiolkovsky.” It is not so, although the legend was born from a real period in the history of the station.

It turns out that in the first project of Mayakovskaya station has not been properly taken into account subsidence. Therefore, the ceiling cracks began to appear. To save the situation, the architect Alexey Dushkin suggested using metal structures and invite collaborators station famous aircraft  Alexander Putilin. And he decided that they can make experts in the building airships. So the «Tsiolkovsky’s Dirigible» at the station no, but the metal constructions are made on the same hardware – like Atlanta columns support the ceiling. The station was opened for passengers of 11 September 1938, and was recently reconstructed. Experts assure that everything is okay, Mayakovskaya not accumulated and not flowing!
