Instruction

A holiday is a suitable occasion to go to a district or regional center. It is better to plan your trip in advance. Go to the website of the regional administration. In the "Culture" section, you will certainly find an announcement about a folk festival or a holiday in the house of culture, where everyone can come.

Thematic programs are not obligatory at all, in many theaters and concert halls there are the most usual performances and concerts for them.

How long have you been to the cinema? The times when the same movie was shown in the cinema all day long are long gone, so it’s better to study the repertoire first. By the way, in many modern cinemas you can not only watch an interesting movie, but also have a pleasant evening in a cafe or club located in the same building.

Weekend

1.Ice skating or skiing. Such an active holiday has already become a tradition. If you haven't mastered ice skating yet, it's time to learn. The choice of skates should be treated like the choice of winter shoes - try on skates on a woolen sock. While trying on, move your legs while standing - the foot should not walk back and forth in the boot. The allowable space between the big toe and the toe of the boot must not exceed 1 cm.

Do not rush to immediately go out on the ice. Get on skates at home or in the yard on the packed snow. Let someone close to insure you, holding your hands in front at arm's length. Try to sit down, raise your legs alternately, lean to the right and left. Have the belayer release you for a few seconds in each position.

Once you learn how to balance without support, start learning to fall. To avoid injuries at the initial stage of training, stock up on protection - purchase knee pads, elbow pads, wristlets, etc. in the roller skate sales department. Keep in mind that you will be wearing all this on winter clothes - a jacket and insulated pants, so choose the appropriate size for fastening belts.

When you feel that you are about to fall, do not put your arms or legs forward as support - you can get a dislocation or a fracture. It is necessary to fall, crouching and at the same time slightly leaning to the side. Legs while skating should always be slightly bent at the knees.

When choosing the length of skis, be guided by your height plus the distance from the elbow to the fingertips. Ski poles in the classic version should reach your arm bent at the elbow (or to the top of the sternum if you choose skis for running). Pay attention to the notches on the soles of the skis - for classic walking the notches should be transverse, and for skating style they should be oblique.

You can start learning to ski in the forest, where the track has already been trodden. If you are going to ride with the whole family, you should not go right next to each other. To avoid injury from the tip of the ski poles, the distance between those walking on the track must be at least a meter.

It can be dangerous for skiing to go down a mountain or a hill. It is important to remember that during the descent, the legs should be bent at the knees, the body is slightly tilted forward, and the sticks are directed back and pressed with the elbows to the body.

2. Holiday for everyone. Not less than outdoor activities mass celebrations are considered. Discover the talent of an organizer and patron of the arts - arrange, for example, a New Year's holiday for the kids in your yard.

Gather a group of like-minded people, rent costumes and musical equipment. Write a script for the holiday, assigning roles, or look for ready-made scripts on the Internet.

Print and paste colorful announcements in advance at the entrance: on such and such a day, at such and such hours, a holiday will take place, admission is free. You can persuade all willing parents to chip in financially and buy the same small gifts or sweets for the kids.

3.Photo shoot or film shooting. Costumes and New Year's attributes can be useful for a fun photo shoot or video shooting in the forest. You can play a whole fairy tale with dressing up on camera. And for a great photo shoot, stock up on Christmas tree decorations, tinsel and massive letters made of colored cardboard.

If the snow is sticky, you can try to mold something like a throne for a photo shoot in the style of the Snow Queen, for example. To keep the creation for a long time, while sculpting, carefully pour it with water from a bottle.

As a joke, you can make a collage. Have you ever seen how the thoughts or words of characters in comics are drawn? Draw the same circle on a white paper with a triangle at the bottom and write something fun on it in block letters. Take pictures holding the “thoughts” in your hands and making an appropriate facial expression or pose.

Tip 18: How to spend time in Moscow if you are passing by for one day

There are so many options that it's easy to get confused. The choice depends on how much time is left, on the tasks set and on the readiness or unwillingness to go somewhere.

If during these few hours you need to have time to buy gifts and souvenirs for relatives and friends and at the same time admire the beauties of the capital, then the best way- go down to the metro and get to the Okhotny Ryad station. The huge shopping center has everything that will satisfy the most demanding taste. If you need goods of a higher category, the famous GUM is nearby. The choice of places to eat is huge.

A.S. Pushkin, the gallery of Ilya Glazunov, the beginning of the Boulevard Ring and within walking distance of the legendary Arbat.

But to have time to see all of the above in one day will not work, you will have to choose from the proposed variety.

This is the option that is impossible to pass by, which is especially suitable for those guests of the capital who are infrequently in Moscow and have seen little of it.

Another route for iconic places the capital, which will remain in the memory for a long time and will give an idea of ​​​​Moscow, this time without shops. Again you need to use the metro and get to the station "Tretyakovskaya". Then - to Lavrushinsky lane, to the famous Tretyakov Gallery. After - along Lavrushinsky, across the Luzhkov bridge, to Bolotnaya Square, where there is something to see.

Then, crossing the Bolshoy Kamenny Bridge at its very beginning, go to the Government House ("House on the Embankment" - for those who read Trifonov's novel). There is an interesting museum in the courtyard, where the interior of the apartments of this house of the 30s is recreated, with furniture of those years, with interesting photographs.

Further - along Bersenevskaya embankment to Patriarchal Bridge, passing which we find ourselves at the Cathedral of Christ the Savior. You can, again, walk along the wonderful Gogolevsky Boulevard to the Arbat, or you can return along the bridge to the embankment and walk to Muzeon Park, where the monuments to Lenin, Stalin, Dzerzhinsky, rejected by time, are kept.

From the Kursk railway station, you need to go along Zemlyanoy Val Street to Staraya Basmannaya Street, then straight ahead to the Bauman Garden, the entrance to which will be on the left hand. And from the area of ​​the three stations you need to go along Ryazansky Prospekt to Novaya Basmannaya Street.

Bauman Park is a place where you can spend time with pleasure, relax, have a snack, immerse yourself in the atmosphere of a Soviet-era park with an open stage and a monument to a fiery revolutionary. The surroundings of the park, as if with the help of a time machine, are transferred forty years ago. Nearby - the house of children's creativity in the former estate, quiet courtyards with playgrounds and rare cars on the street.

If you have time and a desire to see something new and interesting, you can exit the park onto Staraya Basmannaya Street and go left and straight ahead without turning anywhere. On the way you can see the museum of the Decembrists in the estate of the Muravyov-Apostols, the estate of the Musin-Pushkins on Razgulay, the museum in the estate of Uncle A.S. Pushkin Vasily Lvovich. You need to get to Yelokhovsky Square - it's not far away. The square itself is wonderful, green and beautiful, again with a monument to revolutionary times - the illusion of moving in time continues.

Nearby is a huge library in the building of a former city estate. Her first trustee and leader was Maria Hartung, eldest daughter Pushkin. A visit to the library gives a unique opportunity to visit the inside of an old building, admire the magnificent architecture, cast-iron stairs, figured stucco, marble fireplaces.

At the end of the square is the majestic Yelokhovsky Cathedral, where the great poet was baptized. Before the restoration of the Cathedral of Christ the Savior, the cathedral was the main Cathedral, the former Russian Patriarch Alexy II is buried here.

Moreover, in order to spend your free time pleasantly and usefully, it is not necessary to spend a lot of money, as there are many free options.

Entertainment in Moscow for the weekend

After a long entertainment is a must. Therefore, information about where to go on Saturday or Sunday is of interest to many. Of course, the choice primarily depends on age, since what is suitable for young people may cause bewilderment among the older generation, and a young man or girl will agree to go to events “for pensioners” except for the sake of their beloved mother or grandmother.

Below are several categories in which everyone can find entertainment in Moscow to their taste.

Where you can relax for free

In the 70s of the last century in New York, Paris, London and other European capitals, representatives liked to play the game, the winner of which was the one who had the best evening without spending a cent. Young Muscovites can also try to organize such a competition, especially since free entertainment in Moscow is not as difficult to find as it might seem at first glance. For example, in Gorky Park every day professional choreographers give free lessons of modern and Latin American dances (on weekdays from 20:00, on weekends from 17:00). And you can listen to classical music performed by famous musicians and students of the conservatory in the houses-museums of Bulgakov and Chaliapin. You can also visit one of the capital's museums, since the third Sunday of each month they, as a rule, are announced. Among such institutions, the Museum of Archeology of Moscow, Cosmonautics, I.V. Turgenev, the estates "Lefortovo", "Kolomenskoye" and a lot others.

Extreme entertainment in Moscow

A dose of adrenaline is sometimes necessary for those who spend all their days in a boring office, doing routine work. Fortunately, extreme entertainment in Moscow is diverse, and everyone can easily find something that suits their tastes. For example, you can:

• fly in a wind tunnel, which is located at: Picturesque street, 21 (in building 5);
• take a flight on any day of the week, having visited the club "Aeronaut", located on Dmitrovskoe shosse (d. 167, p. 29);

• learn to dive in the center "Aquanaut", in the sports complex "Olympic".

Where to go with children

Everyone knows how difficult it is to please little fussy people and keep them busy on weekends or holidays. After all, entertainment should not only correspond to the age of the child, but also be truly interesting to him. Otherwise, parents will face whims and tears, or, having paid a lot of money, they will see the bored face of their son or daughter. Based on these considerations, the most universal children's entertainment in Moscow, which invariably delights both preschoolers and schoolchildren, is the circus. There are several similar establishments in the capital today, including the famous BMGTS on Vernadsky Avenue and the Nikulin Circus, located on Tsvetnoy Boulevard.

In addition, most kids love various attractions, so in the summer they should be taken to one of the many parks in the capital (attraparks at VDNKh, Izmailovo or Sokolniki). Among the boys, such children's entertainment in Moscow as karting is also popular, which you can do, for example, in the Kart Racing Club or in Pilot. And schoolchildren who are interested in science will be interested in the Lunarium of the Moscow Planetarium (near the Barrikadnaya metro station).

Where to go for teenagers

The age when boys and girls turn into boys and girls is the most difficult. Therefore, parents often do not know what entertainment for teenagers in Moscow will be of interest to their children. Among the most popular options are:

Hot air balloon flight

One of the first aircraft invented by man was an aerostat, or hot air balloon. The operating principle of the device is simple and reliable. The balloon shell is filled with hot air, which has a lower density than cold air. Due to this, the balloon rises up. And with the regulation of the air temperature in the shell, the flight altitude also changes.

It was the balloons that allowed man to get off the ground for the first time, and then reach the stratosphere. Since the appearance of the first balloons nothing has changed fundamentally, except that flights have become safer. The standard height that any balloon can reach is 1000–1500 m. The highest world record belongs to the Americans who have climbed hot-air balloon at 34,668 m.

All balloons can be divided into charliers and hot air balloons, which differ from each other in that the former use butane and propane gases as fuel, and the latter use hydrogen gas. Initially, charliers were more popular, as many did not want to take numerous cylinders of fuel with them. But today, when fire-resistant materials and safe gas burners are invented, hot air balloons have also earned their popularity. With their participation, modern festivals and fiestas of balloons are held.

Mirror of Carlos Santos

In the center of Moscow at 32, Bolshaya Dmitrovka Street, a new space is being opened called The Mirror of Carlos Santos. This is not a restaurant in the usual sense, but a theatrical performance combined with a gastronomic experience. A team of eighty people, led by director Talgat Batalov, playwright Maxim Kurochkin, artist Olga Nikitina and author of the idea Yevgeny Kadomsky, was engaged in the preparation of the guests, while St. Petersburg chef Ruslan Zakirov is responsible for the cuisine recipe. The Mirror of Carlos Santos restaurant is a place where awareness is served for the first, a new experience for the second, and catharsis for dessert. The action unfolds around the participant, or rather, within his own path to the fulfillment of desires or dreams.

The creators of the project define the "Mirror of Carlos Santos" as a restaurant in three steps. Each action is a theatrical performance at the intersection of music, promenade theater and audio performance. At the beginning - cleansing, a kind of preparatory stage, which removes the oppression of everyday fatigue and noise from the guests, fills them with new impressions, covers with a sauce of unprecedented experience. The second action is an individual experience alone with your desires and in anticipation of the main thing. The third part is a restaurant where guests, stuffed with new meanings, are ready to meet with food.

Laureates and nominees of the Golden Mask took part in the creation of the project: in addition to director Talgat Batalov and playwright Maxim Kurochkin, production designer Olga Nikitina, choreographer Alexander Andriyashkin, lighting designer Narek Tumanyan, theater sound producer Vitaly Aminov.

Getting out of the bands is not as easy as it might seem. However, while wandering between them, a person will experience only positive emotions. This is due to the fact that all color schemes were created with the help of professional psychologists who selected warm and eye-pleasing shades.
