Kolomenskoje Park

If you ever take a river-boat trip along Moscow River - Kolomenskoeje is IMO the most logical starting point.

These are excellent photos. The Russians really like their parks as many are walking through them. Glad to see the communists didn't destroy all the beautiful old buildings and they are being well taken care of now.

Kuskovo Estate

Kuskovo Estate was built by Count Piotr Sheremetiev in the late 18th century as a summer palace with a French style garden. The estate has an excellent collection of ceramics and porcelain. Its architectural heritage comprises of 20 buildings artfully placed among the gardens: Dutch House, Italian House, Hermitage, the Church of the Archangel Michael, the Palace and the Orangerie are the most notable. The Ceramic Museum displays china, porcelain and pottery from all over the world, with a particularly fine Russian collection from the 18th century.

Kuskovo Estate or Palace was created in full conformity with tastes and rules of Russian nobiliary life and art of 18 th century. It is the composite centre of the "Kuskovo" ensemble, one of the earliest samples of summer country residences of Russia.

According to a plan of the owner count Pyotr Borisovich Sheremetev, "Kuskovo" should be larger and more beautiful than manors of other grandees and must compare well with imperial residences. Construction of a manor was carried out in 30-90ss of 18th century, its territory covers an area of more than 300 hectares, including three parks - French regular, English landscape and system of ponds and channels, small and big architectural - park ensembles.

"The summer country house of count Sheremetev", the former name of Kuskovo, was intended specially for receptions, smart assemblies, festivals with fireworks, populous celebrations. The most solemn receptions were carried out in the Palace.
