Homesteads

For those who do not want to go far and for a long time

Museum-estate "Arkhangelskoe"

The estate with a three-hundred-year history is located just four kilometers from Moscow. But convenient location is not the main thing. The peculiarity of Arkhangelskoye is a huge park with marble sculptures and staircases, endless alleys and labyrinths of trees. If you get tired of walking in the gardens, go look at the interiors of the 19th century, the personal belongings of the Yusupov princes, the collection of Western European paintings and sculptures in the Big House. You can also go to the office wing, the temple-tomb Colonnade and the storeroom above the ravine - or just sit on the lawn overlooking the river and think about the eternal.

How to get there

You can reach the estate by car from the Moscow Ring Road in 20 minutes. On our own - 40 minutes from the metro station "Tushinskaya" by minibus 151 to the stop "Sanatorium", or by minibus 541 and 549 or bus 540, 541 and 549 to the stop "Arkhangelskoe" (price per ticket - about 50 rubles). You can also get to the estate in an hour by electric train (66 rubles): from the Rizhsky or Kursky railway station to the Pavshino station, and then by minibus 41 (about 50 rubles) to the Arkhangelskoye stop. Troika cards are not accepted in the Moscow region, so do not forget to take cash or Strelka.

Museum-reserve "Gorki Leninskie"

"Gorki Leninskie" is a place where both tsarist and Soviet Russia survived. Until 1918, representatives of old noble families lived in the estate. After the revolution, Gorki was turned into a sanatorium, and then into the residence of Lenin, which practically did not change anything in the interior of the estate. Thanks to this, the collection of neoclassical furniture, tapestries and other exhibits of the 19th century has been well preserved. Also in Gorki there is a museum of peasant life and two museums dedicated to Lenin. Around the buildings, there is a large park with centuries-old linden alleys, an apple orchard, a large pond with a dam and a dam.

How to get there

The way to the museum-reserve by car will take about an hour. By bus 439 (50-80 rubles) from the Domodedovskaya metro station to the Experimentalnaya Baza stop, you can get there in 40 minutes.

Museum-estate "Ostafyevo"

"Ostafyevo" is a noble estate typical for Russia of the 19th century: a two-storey house in the classical style, big pond and a park with linden alleys. There are usually few visitors, so you can freely walk around the territory, feed the squirrels, and then go to the backyard cafe for ice cream or fresh pies. V different years the owners of the estate were princes Vyazemsky and Count Sheremetyev, Zhukovsky, Karamzin, Pushkin were guests. The collection of the estate museum contains personal items of historical figures. For example, Pushkin's vest and glove. If you decide to take a look at the house, we warn you that the interior is quite minimalistic, so if you want to be impressed with something else, take a guided tour. For 120-250 rubles they will tell Interesting Facts from the life of the owners of the estate and its guests, which compensates for the modest decoration.

How to get there

You can drive from the Moscow Ring Road to the estate in half an hour. You will have to travel an hour on your own: from the metro station "Bulvar Dmitriya Donskoy" by minibus 422 (from 50 rubles) to the station "Shcherbinka", and then by bus 1045, 898 (50-75 rubles) to the stop "Museum Ostafyevo". Or directly from the metro to the estate by bus 802 (55 rubles).

Estate "Marfino"

The estate was built in a pseudo-Gothic style, which is atypical for Russia. The pink manor house with towers and battlements looks more like medieval castle... The pier with griffins, a stone bridge with arches and Maltese shields, an entrance gate with a guard tower and a birch grove behind it have been preserved. Previously, "Marfino" belonged to the Golitsyn, then - to the Saltykov and Panin. Now on the territory of the estate there is a military sanatorium. But getting into it is not difficult: you need to take your passport with you, and you will be issued a one-time pass at the checkpoint.

How to get there

It takes about an hour to drive from MKAD by car. By train (about 135 rubles) from the railway station "Begovaya" or "Savyolovskaya" to "Catuar" you will get in an hour, and from there about another 30 minutes by bus 37 or 73 (from 50 rubles) to the stop "Rest House" Marfino ".

Museum-reserve A.P. Chekhov "Melikhovo"

Melikhovo does not look like traditional estates. Instead of a palace with columns, there is a modest one-story house in which Chekhov and his family lived from 1892 to 1899. Nearby there is an outbuilding where "The Seagull" was written, a bathhouse, an outpatient clinic. The territory of the estate is large enough, so you can just walk around the garden among flowers and lilacs, feed the ducks on the pond and not go to museums at all. It is better to arrive early, because from 13.00 the museum is attacked by tourists on buses.

How to get there

By car from Moscow to "Melikhovo" about an hour and a half. You can also get there by public transport: from the Kursk railway station by train (110-180 rubles) or from the Yuzhnaya metro station by bus 365 (60-170 rubles) to the Chekhov station, then by bus 25 (about 50 rubles) to stop "Melikhovo village".

Greece for May holidays 2019

Greece is the cheapest option to go on vacation for the May holidays at sea in 2019. Now there is a protracted crisis in the country, so the prices for vouchers there are very attractive. Greece wants to improve its financial situation and actively invites tourists. However, there are refugee camps in Greece that scare off tourists. Whether or not to go to Greece for the May holidays is up to you.

As for me, I also succumbed to the wave of popularity of Greece and visited there last May holidays. I can say about the weather that in May in Greece it is already warm enough, 20-25 degrees, but the sea is still cold, both the Mediterranean and the Aegean. In general, the Mediterranean Sea warms up unevenly, and somewhere you can already swim in May, but in Greece - well, no. However, it is still worth a visit. Because the cuisine in Greece is simply magical, and now you will see the prices for yourself.

I found the most inexpensive tour to Greece for the May holidays at a price of 30375 rubles for two. This is a 2 * Margaret Studios hotel. The hotel is located on the island of Rhodes, and even has its own nice territory and a swimming pool. The tour will cost 15,000 rubles per person. But this is for Schengen visa holders. If you do not have a visa, you need to add at least 40 euros to this cost.
