ABOUT MOSCOW

Moskow was founded by Yuriy Dolgorukiy in 1147 year.

MOSCOW IS THE CAPITAL OF RUSSIA. THE CITY IS A MAJOR POLITICAL, ECONOMIC, CULTURAL AND SCIENTIFIC CENTER IN RUSSIA.

MOSCOW IS SITUATED ON THE BANKS OF THE MOSKVA RIVER, WHICH FLOWS FOR JUST OVER 500 KM.

Moscow has a  humid continental climate  with long, cold winters usually lasting from mid-November to the end of March, and warm summers. More extreme continental climates at the same latitude- such as parts of Eastern Canada or Siberia- have much colder winters, suggesting that there is still significant moderation from the Atlantic Ocean. Weather can fluctuate widely with temperatures ranging from −25 °C (−13 °F) in the city and −30 °C (−22 °F) in suburbs to above 5 °C (41 °F) in the winter, and from 10 to 35 °C (50 to 95 °F) in the summer.

One of the most notable art museums in Moscow is the  Tretyakov Gallery . The  State Historical Museum  of Russia is a museum of Russian history located between Red Square and  Manege Square  in Moscow. The  Shchusev State Museum of Architecture  is the national museum of Russian architecture by the name of the architect  Alexey Shchusev  near the Kremlin area.

There are 96 parks and 18 gardens in Moscow, including four  botanical gardens . There are 450 square kilometres (170 sq mi) of green zones besides 100 square kilometres (39 sq mi) of forests. Moscow is a very green city, if compared to other cities of comparable size in Western Europe and North America; this is partly due to a history of having green "yards" with trees and grass, between residential buildings. There are on average 27 square meters of parks per person in Moscow compared with 6 for  Paris , 7.5 in  London  and 8.6 in New York.

Moscow is governed by the Mayor and by a City Council [Duma]. A City Council of 45 deputies elected to five-year terms. Each deputy represents an election district called a ward.

Before 1990, only one candidate ran for election in each ward. The candidate was elected unless most voters crossed his or her name off the ballot. In the March 1990 city election, two or three candidates could run for each position on the City Council.
