Stary Arbat

More Moscow street photography from me... to continue my Streets of Moscow series.

Stary Arbat today, also known as Old Arbat or just Arbat Street, a pedestrian area close to center of Moscow.


Approaching Stary Arbat... you can see the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs Building.


As usual the bright September sun interferes with my point and click photography... and does it even from behind some clouds.


The Foreign Ministry building towering above others... actually it is one of the Seven Stalin Sister skyscrapers (plus the eighth "sister" in Warsaw, Poland, -- the Palace of Culture and Science).


Now looking down Stary Arbat a major pedestrian and promenade area.






Victor Tsoi wall...


This is one of the lanes leading off Stary Arbat looking back at it.


Approaching Novy Arbat now from Stary Arbat.
