Description: The third largest city in the world, Moscow emerged as the most powerful Russian city in the 1400s, was the home of Russia's czars until 1712 (when the capital was moved to St. Petersburg), became the capital again after the Bolshevik Revolution, and became the capital once more after the Communists lost power in 1991. Political history continues to be made in Moscow, and decisions made there often have worldwide significance. The Kremlin and Red Square are important points of interest, but so are St. Basil's Cathedral, the Bolshoi Theater Ballet, the Arbat, and Gorki Park. Moscow describes the history, culture, daily life, food, people, sports, and points of interest in the capital of Russia and one of the largest cities in the world.
