Yelokhovo and its Surroundings - The Countryside and the Central Administrative District
Dear comrades!
I invite you to take a walk in the village Yelokhovo, once a village far from the Kremlin, and now a part of CAO, with a visit to the famous Yelokhovsky The Temple (aka Epiphany Cathedral Cathedral) and the necropolis on its territories.
We will walk along the border The German Settlement twice: to get to the village Elokhovo and get to know the Old Believers here and to talk about the settlement of the Chinese with their laundries and opium. Surprisingly , two completely different topics have intertwined: THE CHINESE IN RUSSIA and family MUSINYKH-PUSHKINYKH-BSYUSOV (on the eve of a free trip to the estate I recommend visiting Staro-Nikolskoye Yelokhovo).
Let's talk about finding the "Word about Igor's regiment", the development of sewerage and water supply in Moscow, the resumption of the patriarchate in our country (unique Cathedral of the Epiphany Elokhovsky The cathedral was the main one before the restoration of the Cathedral of Christ The Savior!!!) and many other things.
We will see the monument to N. E. Bauman, the Pushkin pre-fire library (of course, with a monument to A.S. Pushkin and a wonderful park), pubs on Razgulyai, a monument To the militia of the Bauman district, a mysterious Puppet The theater, an example of Luzhkovsky 's new model and masterpieces The avant-garde of the last century.
You will find out why a blind architect is not an oxymoron, why we say "one gang", where to go on a binge and where on the map WALK AROUND Moscow.
Patriarchs and monarchs, militias and dispossessed, mayors and Old Believers, revolutionaries and millionaires, and even fools (Basil the Blessed hails from here. This story awaits you.), scouts and atheists...This is the planida Basmania!
