Moscow, the majestic capital of Russia, is one of the world’s
largest cities with over 11 million people. Located on the banks
of the Moskva River, the city has many excellent attractions
from the Kremlin (the mainstay of Russia’s political power)
to Red Square(which lies just outside of the Kremlin) to the
famous St. Basil’s Cathedral (a staple of Russian imagery
with its ornately decorated exterior). All of these sights will
give you a firsthand glimpse into the local culture as you immerse
yourself in the Russian language.
Moscow has the best of both worlds, old and new. The city center
is a busy metropolis with a newfound zest for life—new
shops and restaurants open their doors every day. Like New York
City, Moscow is also known as the city that never sleeps. Students
can have fun and learn a lot in this fast-paced environment.
Away from the center, there are cozy cafes, artists’ studios,
and quiet parks–perfect places to absorb the leisurely
side of Moscow and reflect on its unique cultural heritage.
Whatever your expectations, discovering Moscow and studying
Russian here is a truly rewarding experience. Though Russian
can be a challenging language to learn, many students find this
school a wonderful place to rise to the challenge!
