Paul,  I have the co2crea case for my Sonos Move. It is awesome.  Many cases don’t accommodate the charging ring. This little case holds the charging ring neatly under the speaker. The case fits the speaker like a glove. I don’t think there is a better case available. It rugged, light weight and not bulky. The shoulder strap make is easy to take your speaker wherever you go. I love it.

Move over Apple AirPods Max, the Sonos Ace is coming

Quick Summary

Popular audio brand, Sonos, looks set to reveal its first pair of wireless headphones.

A new leak has showcased images of the unit, giving us a first look at the rumoured design.

While the world of technology is packed with goodies, there is nothing quite like a solid pair of wireless headphones . These over-ear units generally mark the very top of the food chain for brands, bringing the best audio quality and technology to market.

Most high-end audio manufacturers have already unveiled a product in the space. But a notable exception is Sonos. Known for top quality audio products – like the T3 Award winning Sonos Era 300 – the brand has a notable headphone-shaped gap in its current line-up.

That looks set to change, though. Rumours have been spreading for a while about the brand unveiling a pair of headphones – and these latest leaks suggest they could be coming soon.

Dubbed the Sonos Ace headphones, the model has leaked from a parts supplier for the brand called Schuurman. A series of images showcase the headphones themselves, as well as the accessories which come with them.

There is a point of interest there. We can clearly see the headphones, as well as a headphone cable and a USB-C cable. There's also the headphone case – but a smaller case can also be seen in the image. It's not quite clear what this houses, though I'd wager a guess that it's for the cables rather than anything more exciting.

The images also showcase the design language. As you'd expect of Sonos, that's sleek and modern, with a matte black appearance almost totally devoid of straight edges.

A good array of buttons can be spotted on the cups themselves. That's a good sign and suggests that users won't have to rely on a phone app to enjoy control of their audio experience.

Rumoured pricing also places these at around $450. That's certainly on the high side, but would still be more than attainable for users. It puts them in a similar bracket as the Bose QuietComfort Ultra Headphones and the Airpods Max , and just a little more expensive than the Sony WH-1000XM5 units.

(In fact, many of these famous people travel far and wide with their speakers, using them to jam everywhere from Costa Rica to the Bahamas to Europe.) This list includes portable models from brands like Ultimate Ears and JBL , smart speakers from Sonos and Amazon, and products from prestige brands like Bang & Olufsen and Louis Vuitton. To help you scan through their favorite speakers , we’ve organized this list by price — under $100, under $150, under $250, and over $250 — and in cases where more than one celebrity has recommended the device, we’ve included all of their quotes.

Leslie Odom Jr. “I take this speaker with me everywhere. It lives in my dressing room now, but it goes with me wherever I go so I can travel with my vibe. It helps me set a mood in a hotel room or dressing room if I’m there for a long time. It’s fantastic and durable and pretty loud for its size. It’s also not too expensive, so it’s not something that you have to guard with your life.” — November 2023

Juliette Lewis “I love this speaker. Everyone who knows me knows I carry music with me. I travel with it and use it in my hotel room. I have it sitting with me in the makeup trailer when I’m getting into character. I listen to music I think my characters would listen to. It’s just intuitive. For Cape Fear , I listened to all this ’50s love and longing music. It felt very juvenile. For Natural Born Killers , I listened to ‘Voodoo Child,’ by Jimi Hendrix, and the bands Slight Return and Killing Floor obsessively every day for a month and a half. I felt like that was Mallory Knox. Recently, doing Yellowjackets , I had an old ’90s playlist that was really fun. Everything from Jane’s Addiction and the song ‘Would?’ by Alice in Chains to even Crystal Castles.” — May 2024

John Varvatos “I’ve had a bunch of small Bluetooth speakers, and this one sounds like a big speaker despite its size. The sound is killer with a great deep bass. I always wonder, How does all that sound come out of there ? Because it’s so compact, I take it with me everywhere. I use it at home and at the office. And I take it out on the boat and on trips; I’ve brought it to Europe before and Costa Rica most recently. My daughter steals it from me whenever she can and does her mix on it. I often hear it very loudly from her room.” — February 2023

Felix Burrichter “My friend Tony Jackson, also known as Skype Williams, gave this to me. I had this stupid little Bose speaker that you stick your phone onto, but I didn’t really use it because, as I said, it was stupid. Tony is a musician, and when he noticed I didn’t have a portable speaker, he got this for me for my birthday. The speaker changed my life. The sound is spectacular. One small detail about it that I really love is that its two ends bounce — it’s hard to explain, but when there’s a strong bass, the speaker jiggles with the music. It’s very subtle, but it’s so cute. It almost feels like it’s alive.” — August 2021

Noah Schnapp “I love listening to music in the shower, so I use this in the shower a lot because it’s waterproof. Or I’ll stick it in my bag and bring it around so I can play music when I’m in hotels and stuff. It’s really nice that it’s small and portable and Bluetooth. I bring it on set, too, and when I’m on photo shoots. It kind of just makes everything more fun; it lightens the vibe of everything. When I’m on set and I want to focus, I use headphones, but when I want to cheer up and have a little fun, I’ll use the speaker.” — February 2020

Tituss Burgess “Music is everything. I call music moments the intermissions of life — I often want ear nourishment. This little speaker gets so loud for how tiny it is. I can travel with it, too. I basically bring my house with me everywhere.” — June 2018

Editor’s note: Some of these celebrities owned previous versions of the JBL Flip, but we included the most updated version here.

Yara Shahidi “I spend most of my days listening to either a podcast or a song at all times — even on set. My makeup artist calls me Jukebox because it’s pretty common to hear some sort of voice droning from my phone or back pocket. I love having a speaker on me, especially for my trailer. This speaker makes whatever space I’m in feel like home. I’ve tried pretty much every speaker out there, and I own many speakers. But in terms of being forgetful, this one is the best because it turns off when it’s not in use to save batteries. If you download the app, you have some special capabilities, but it’s pretty easy to connect and just do Bluetooth. I have two sizes. I keep the big one in my room or my trailer or my office. And I keep a little one in my backpack because you never know if you’re going to need a sound system.” — May 2022

Jacques Torres “I don’t listen to music when I’m working because everyone in my kitchen is younger than me, so they might not like the music I choose. But I like to have this speaker for my kids. When we travel, we play ‘Baby Shark,’ of course, and other goofy music they love. It is small, so it’s very portable, but the sound is amazing. I’m not a connoisseur of sound and couldn’t tell you what makes some sounds better than others. But I think this is great. It doesn’t distort the sound, and it connects to my phone right away.” — November 2021

Kim Chi “When I go on tour, a lot of times I’m in hotel rooms or dressing rooms or theaters all by myself. I like to listen to music when I get ready to pump me up. The Wonderboom is the perfect on-the-go speaker: It’s light, fits into any luggage easily, and is very sturdy. The sound quality is pretty good, too.” — May 2021

Nathan Lump “I don’t always travel with a portable speaker, but when I have a bit of extra space, I use this one. I spend a ton of time in hotel rooms, and it’s nice to be able to customize your space. What I like about this one is that it’s relatively small and has good sound. Plus it’s lightweight and waterproof, in case you ever bring it near a pool or beach.” — September 2017

Editor’s note: Some of these celebrities owned previous versions of the Ultimate Ears Wonderboom speaker, but we included the most updated version here.

Trixie Mattel “I love Alexa. I have four of them in my house. I have the Echo, the Dot, and I forget what it’s called — the big square one with the screen. I’ll walk into my house and say, ‘Alexa, play the Go-Go’s,’ or whatever I’m in the mood for. And if I’m getting ready and walking around, the same music is playing everywhere in my house. It’s fierce.” — August 2019

Jeff Titterton “I will use the Echo Dot for setting the timer while I cook, looking up fun and random facts with the kids, for playing music — for just about anything. Sometimes when you’re washing your hands and can’t fiddle with something, you’ll want to play a song or find out when the Battle of Waterloo was.” — February 2018

Editor’s note: Some of these celebrities owned previous versions of the Echo Dot, but we included the most updated version here.

André Aciman “Oh my God, I’ve got so many of these now. This small one is the new one they make, and I have it on my desk and in the shower, and it just puts out amazing sound. You put it behind the sofa, and sometimes people think you have this huge speaker when you’re having a dinner party. Do not be fooled, though: You cannot put it on your bike, as they suggest in their manual.” — July 2018

JJ Johnson “The JBL Charge 4 brings the vibes. The battery lasts long. It’s something that I bring with me when I travel for my hotel room and something that when we’re prepping in the kitchen, we turn on and rock out. If you catch me in there trying to focus and bring rhythm to food, I’m listening to jazz. We can put it on to dance with our kids anywhere in the house or even when we go to somebody else’s house — like bringing it to a cookout.” — March 2024

French Montana “Dina, my manager, got this for me, and I just got stuck to it. I took it with me on the road. When we go to different hotels and stuff, we get the speaker out and start the party. I used to have another speaker, but this one sounds better because the bass is really good on it. I like to listen to a lot of mood music on it. My mood-music playlist is called ‘Wave Music.’ I got everything from Marvin Gaye to James Brown to Aretha Franklin on it. I got Freddie King, Charles Bradley, and Bob Marley, too. I set this up on my speaker and just sink into the mood, really feel the vibes.” — November 2021

Simon Rex “This is one of those things that I must bring with me. It’s got really good sound, for whatever reason; it’s the best little speaker. It basically becomes my stereo system on the road. I was just doing a movie in Argentina, and I brought the speaker with me to commute to work in the morning. I’m DJ-ing; I’m playing music. Everybody’s in a good mood because I’m bringing the vibe.” — December 2023

Jane Seymour “I’m not sure what that is — it’s just small and round and a friend of mine gave it to me, and I have a son who writes and performs music and invariably I suddenly want to show off what he does … I haven’t managed to figure out how to use my speakers in my house, which, by the way, are being redone right now and never worked properly. Anyway, I find it hilarious that I have a major speaker system and yet I can never get the immediate sound I want in the place that I want it at the level I want it as easily as I can with that portable speaker.” — March 2019

Anthony Anderson “I don’t like to play golf in silence, and neither do my friends. We used to bring a radio to listen to music and then, years ago, the Bluetooth era started. Rad came to one of my golf tournaments one year and gifted my celebs these speakers. And that’s what I use. When I’m playing by myself, I’ll play some music and smoke a cigar, and I’ll just have a nice, leisurely day at my country club. It has magnets on the speaker that attach to the cart so you don’t have to worry about it falling out, and you can position it to give you your surround sound, so to speak. When I travel, I take my golf clubs wherever I go; but more importantly, I take my speaker.” — November 2023

Chris Redd “Sonos is my speakers. I travel with the beach pill; I’ve been traveling with that forever. It’s just the cleanest speaker to me. It’s durable as hell. I feel like you could shoot it and it’d be all right. I love that thing. And no matter what other kind of speaker you buy, it connects to it. And if I’m at the crib, it’s gotta be the Sonos Move, or just a Sonos setup.” — February 2024

Roxane Gay “I love having music on at home in multiple rooms, but in addition to the gorgeous sound, the Sonos app allows you to bring in all your subscriptions, to Apple Music, Amazon Music, Sirius, Pandora, and Spotify. I can centralize it all so I can listen to music across the different platforms on the speakers.” — July 2018

Editor’s note: The original version of the Sonos One is no longer available, so we included the updated version here.

Tan France “I cook at home almost every day, and I bake at least a few times a week. Every time I cook, I play Bollywood music — it’s basically always playing in my house. My husband has learned to love it, too. He even has certain song requests when we cook together. Female Bollywood singers have really high-pitched voices, and if you use the wrong speaker, they can get really blown out. The Bose speaker maintains the quality of the vocals. They never sound too shrill, just very lovely. We had another speaker at first, and I was like, ‘This sounds terrible. I can’t stand her voice.’ So we did some research and got the Bose.” — June 2021

Charlotte Tilbury “I live for music. It just makes me feel good. I need a good speaker for listening to my artists (we’re talking about Stevie Nicks, Fleetwood Mac, the Rolling Stones, Michael Jackson, Primal Scream, the Weeknd, and Rihanna). This one’s my favorite because I can pack it in my suitcase and be anywhere — ideally Ibiza — dancing the night away.” — November 2018

Editor’s note: Some of these celebrities owned previous versions of the Bose SoundLink Revolve, but we included the most updated version here.

Paul Smith “I use this at my office desk and take it home with me, too. The sound is amazing; I can’t believe it comes from a device I can toss in my bag. I’ve been listening to a lot of jazz — Herbie Hancock, Dave Brubeck, the trumpet player Alonzo Demetrius — because it’s not intrusive as I work. Otherwise, I’ve been playing a lot of the Lumineers, who are great mates of mine.” — May 2021

Barbara Corcoran “So in my home, I have a very expensive sound system — and I never use it. Why would I when I have this? It’s just uncomplicated — you press the button and you have PHENOMENAL stereo sound. I don’t know how they do it. I will bring this speaker upstairs and downstairs in the house, I love it so much. I will travel with it when I go on a quick trip just by throwing it in my bag — it holds a charge, so I don’t even need to charge it if it’s a two-day trip.” — November 2017

Editor’s note: Some of these celebrities owned previous versions of the Ultimate Ears Megaboom speaker, but we included the most updated version here.

Shelby Macklin “My boyfriend gave it to me. It has a handle, so it’s cute to carry around. I listen to music to start my days and get my mind-set right. It motivates me and wakes me up. Playing music from my phone is fine, but the speaker gives it a different vibe.” — February 2021

Addison Rae “Every morning, I play music after I wake up. And I usually go to sleep with music. At night, I’ll listen to softer music, like Pink Sweats or Frank Ocean, because it’s really relaxing. In the morning, I’ll change it to something more upbeat. The Echo makes it easy because you can talk to it to change the song or whatever. It’s also pretty much my weatherman. While it’s mostly beautiful all the time in L.A., lately it’s been rainy and cloudy, and my Echo tells me that before I leave the house.” — August 2020

Jimmy Butler  “A lot of people in the States really don’t know about Bang & Olufsen because it’s a European brand, but it makes absolutely incredible headphones, speakers, TVs — all of that good stuff. Music is what I do throughout the day, when I’m sitting down playing cards and dominoes whenever I’m getting ready for the game or on the way to the game. And so I’m always playing music through my Bluetooth speaker.” — April 2024

DJ Khaled “I’ve got to have a speaker everywhere I go. Even if I’m at the golf course, the plane, or the hotel room, I have it on me at all times. I want to hear the music I’m creating. My queen got me this Louis Vuitton speaker as a gift. I like that it’s high quality and it looks fly. I love that fly shit. It doesn’t matter what it is — dinner plates or my speaker — it has to be fly.” — April 2024

Lenny Kravitz “During the pandemic when I was in the Bahamas for two years recording music, I had one of these. When I was out of the studio, I’d check my mixes with this. I learned the sound of this speaker and its frequencies, which helped me understand the truth of my own sound. (You can listen to your music on different systems and get different sounds.) I trust this portable speaker. It’s loud, strong, and clean, and it’s got a really great bass response. And it’s easy to carry around and looks sleek. It covers all the bases for me. Now it’s become my travel companion for monitoring my music.” — October 2022

Anderson .Paak “It’s big. Huge, actually. That’s the best part. I bring it all over the place. I do a lot of waiting around. On tour, I’m waiting in airports, in the greenroom before the show, in the greenroom after the show, and for the after-party to start. Lots of waiting. So this speaker is perfect for that. It changes the mood of a room. I got my first one at an electronics store in an airport. I was like, I need that. I have four or five of them right now because it’s always good to have backups.” — November 2020

Quavo “I’m constantly listening to unreleased Migos music, and I walk around with this boom box. I’m like a walking party. You just have to pull up and press play.” — June 2020

Editor’s note: Some of these celebrities owned previous versions of the JBL Boombox, but we included the most updated version here.

Scott Sternberg “I’ve had a Sonos system for a couple years. I got the Move about two months into the pandemic. Because it’s portable, it provides the soundtrack to my backyard, which is like a secret garden. The house’s previous owner really just killed the backyard, but I reactivated it once it was clear that you could hang with a friend outdoors if you were far enough apart.” — March 2021

Tracy Anderson “I love having surround sound everywhere in the house, so I have lots of hidden Sonos speakers. The Move is new; you can take it anywhere. Music is such an important part of life. If my daughter gets a boo-boo, we turn on some music and it’s an immediate distraction in a positive way. It’s a powerful thing. Whether you’re celebrating something, bummed out about something, or want to relax, music is a healthy thing to have in any household.”  — December 2020

Editor’s note: The original version of the Sonos Move is no longer available, so we included the updated version here.

Jennifer Hudson “Music affects my every emotion. Products that let me listen to music are an absolute necessity. I’m very particular about sound, which is why I’m obsessed with Marshall’s headphones and speakers. Both sound amazing. I’m a traditional girl and I always want a cord with my headphones — I don’t need Bluetooth for everything. The speaker, though, is Bluetooth, so I don’t have to worry about a cord. I use it when I’m in the mirror doing my makeup or skin-care routine — I want to be able to move around, and I don’t want anything like headphones touching my face. It’s easy to carry around with me, too.” — December 2020

Editor’s note: The original version of the Marshall Tufton Portable Bluetooth Speaker is no longer available, so we included the updated version here.

Dove Cameron “I’m a big fan of bass, which is why this Bose speaker is one of my favorites. It’s really small and really portable, but the bass is superintense. I listen to a lot of Diplo and Sylvan Esso and Labrinth on it, and it all sounds really good. When I listen to music, I’m definitely moving, dancing, jumping, singing — and this speaker gets really loud. Ten out of ten, would recommend.” — November 2020

Salt-N-Pepa’s Cheryl James “The sound is great, and I love the vintage look. It looks old school, like something from the ’50s or ’60s. I have it in black and brown. Everyone in my house always steals them, so I’m constantly walking around like, Where is my speaker? I actually got mine as a gift at the Kentucky Derby — they have an incredible swag room.” — March 2020

Julius Randle “For me, this is a road essential. When I’m in a room, I love to listen to music, whether it’s before bed or getting ready for the game. I just love music in general, blasting music — chances are if you’re walking down the hallway and there’s loud music playing, it’s probably coming from my room.” — October 2019

David Sedaris “I first saw this speaker at a store in Provincetown, and I just found it really beautiful. I have three of them now in different rooms in the house, each a different color: mustard, gray, and blue. It’s covered in fabric, and the sound is really good. I know a lot of people make speakers like that, but the weight of the Vifa is really satisfying. They don’t have Pandora in England, so when I come back to the United States, I like to put on Pandora and just let it play.” — June 2019

Moscow architecture: Sticking to faux-Russian style

The building of the State Historical Museum (formerly the Imperial Russian Historical Museum) appeared on Red Square in the last quarter of the 19th century. Source: Lori / Legion Media

A distinctive feature of this style was the use of elements of traditional Russian architecture: turrets, tower roofs, facades composed of ornamental tiles, and many other examples. This was not, however, simply a case of blind imitation, but rather a pastiche or stylization that often combined harmoniously with other styles.

Discover a glorious corner of paradise

Therefore, although the distinctive features of the style are highly recognizable, it is impossible to find two buildings exactly alike.

In Moscow, the style was employed in the construction of buildings for all kinds of purposes: apartment buildings, private residences, theatres, museums, shopping malls and railway stations.

Pogodinskaya Hut

One of the earliest manifestations of this style is the wooden Pogodinskaya Hut, which has miraculously survived to the present day. The hut was built in 1856 by architect Nikolai Nikitin, under commission by businessman and philanthropist Vasily Kokorev; the latter presented the building to historian, publicist, and Moscow University professor Mikhail Pogodin.

The hut was one of the outhouses of the former Pogodin Estate, which housed an ancient repository of old books, paintings, and engravings. Nikitin based his design on the peasant houses of the Volga region, and the carving and fretwork pay homage to the pictures of Grigory Gagarin, a prince and amateur artist.

Address: 12-a, Pogodinskaya street

Igumnov House

Frequently likened to an ornate gift box, the house has adorned Yakimanka Street for over a century. Nicholas Igumnov owned a large manufactory in Yaroslavl, and when the time came to move to Moscow, he commissioned local Yaroslavl architect Nicholas Pozdeev to design and build a house.

The house was completed in 1895 and at great expense for the time (rumored to be a million rubles). One reason for the high cost of the house was the fact that bricks were brought over from Holland to build it. The facades make extensive use of tiles, figured masonry, and stone carving.

In 1938, the house was transferred to the French Embassy. In 1979, separate premises were constructed near the embassy building, while Igumnova House became the residence of the French ambassador. Today, the house is used to hold official events and still accommodates the ambassador and the ambassador’s family. The French Embassy allows select visitors into the house on museum open days.

Address: 43, Bolshaya Yakimanka

Pertsovoy House

On the Kropotkinskaya embankment stands the quaint (even for its time) house of Zenaida Pertsovaya, who officially owned it. The site was bought and the house commissioned by her husband, the renowned railway engineer Peter Pertsov. One of the conditions of the design bid was that the house be built in the Russian style.

The winning design belonged to artist Sergei Malyutin (credited with making the first “matryoshka” doll), who joined forces with architect Nikolai Zhukov and engineer-architect Boris Shnaubert to execute the project. The house not only contained apartments for rent, but also the owners, who lived there in a three-story apartment with a separate entrance.

Address: 1, Soymonovsky proezd

Upper Trading Rows (GUM Department Store)

The Upper Trading Rows opened in December 1893, and accommodated over one thousand stores. Source: Lori / Legion Media

Reconstructed after a fire in 1812 by Joseph (Osip) Bove, the trading rows were already outdated by the end of the 19th century. In 1890, merchants raised funds for a new construction project, designed by architect Alexander Pomerantsev.

The most advanced technologies and building materials of the time were used, including concrete and steel structures. Light penetrated the premises through glass vaults in the ceiling, designed by engineer Vladimir Shukhov, who later built the famous Moscow radio tower at Shabolovka.

The Upper Trading Rows opened in December 1893, and accommodated over one thousand stores. At about the same time, the Middle Trading Rows (designed by architect Roman Klein) were also built in the same style, closer to the Moskva River.

Address: 3, Red Square

Historical Museum

The building of the State Historical Museum (formerly the Imperial Russian Historical Museum) appeared on Red Square in the last quarter of the 19th century. The site was originally occupied by the main pharmacy and then by the first building of Moscow University. Construction of the museum began by architect Vladimir Sherwood and engineer Anatoly Semenov in 1875; it was completed six years later.

The architectural style of the building was predetermined by the conditions of the bid: the Historical Museum was to be built in the ancient Russian architectural style. The building’s steeples echo the outlines of the neighboring Nikolskaya Tower in the Kremlin.

Address: 1, Red Square

Moscow City Duma (Lenin Museum)

Located next to the Historical Museum is a huge bright red tower building known to several generations of Soviet people as the Lenin Museum (now a branch of the State Historical Museum). The building was, in fact, built in 1890-1892 to house the Moscow City Duma. The bid for the building was won by architect Dmitry Chichagov. The building was initially planned to be light gray, but, on completion, the decision was made to retain the original red brick.

Address: 2/3, Revolution Square

Board of Treasury: Before the revolution, this issued loans on security of silver, gold, and precious stones. Source: Lori / Legion Media

The designated purpose of this beautiful building and the years of its construction are inscribed on the pediment: “Russian Loan Treasury, 1913-1916.” Before the revolution, that was the name of the main lending institution that issued loans on security of silver, gold, and precious stones.

The building was constructed by architects Vladimir Pokrovsky and Bogdan Nilus, who had previously designed the building of the State Bank in the city of Nizhny Novgorod. The building features not only motifs of Russian architecture, but also elements of the baroque style.

Address: 3, Nastasyinsky per.

Travel Itinerary For One Week in Moscow: The Best of Moscow!

I just got back from one week in Moscow. And, as you might have already guessed, it was a mind-boggling experience. It was not my first trip to the Russian capital. But I hardly ever got enough time to explore this sprawling city. Visiting places for business rarely leaves enough time for sightseeing. I think that if you’ve got one week in Russia, you can also consider splitting your time between its largest cities (i.e. Saint Petersburg ) to get the most out of your trip. Seven days will let you see the majority of the main sights and go beyond just scratching the surface. In this post, I’m going to share with you my idea of the perfect travel itinerary for one week in Moscow.

Moscow is perhaps both the business and cultural hub of Russia. There is a lot more to see here than just the Kremlin and Saint Basil’s Cathedral. Centuries-old churches with onion-shaped domes dotted around the city are in stark contrast with newly completed impressive skyscrapers of Moscow City dominating the skyline. I spent a lot of time thinking about my Moscow itinerary before I left. And this city lived up to all of my expectations.

Travel Itinerary For One Week in Moscow

Day 1 – red square and the kremlin.

Metro Station: Okhotny Ryad on Red Line.

No trip to Moscow would be complete without seeing its main attraction. The Red Square is just a stone’s throw away from several metro stations. It is home to some of the most impressive architectural masterpieces in the city. The first thing you’ll probably notice after entering it and passing vendors selling weird fur hats is the fairytale-like looking Saint Basil’s Cathedral. It was built to commemorate one of the major victories of Ivan the Terrible. I once spent 20 minutes gazing at it, trying to find the perfect angle to snap it. It was easier said than done because of the hordes of locals and tourists.

As you continue strolling around Red Square, there’s no way you can miss Gum. It was widely known as the main department store during the Soviet Era. Now this large (yet historic) shopping mall is filled with expensive boutiques, pricey eateries, etc. During my trip to Moscow, I was on a tight budget. So I only took a retro-style stroll in Gum to get a rare glimpse of a place where Soviet leaders used to grocery shop and buy their stuff. In case you want some modern shopping experience, head to the Okhotny Ryad Shopping Center with stores like New Yorker, Zara, and Adidas.

To continue this Moscow itinerary, next you may want to go inside the Kremlin walls. This is the center of Russian political power and the president’s official residence. If you’re planning to pay Kremlin a visit do your best to visit Ivan the Great Bell Tower as well. Go there as early as possible to avoid crowds and get an incredible bird’s-eye view. There are a couple of museums that are available during designated visiting hours. Make sure to book your ticket online and avoid lines.

Day 2 – Cathedral of Christ the Saviour, the Tretyakov Gallery, and the Arbat Street

Metro Station: Kropotkinskaya on Red Line

As soon as you start creating a Moscow itinerary for your second day, you’ll discover that there are plenty of metro stations that are much closer to certain sites. Depending on your route, take a closer look at the metro map to pick the closest.

The white marble walls of Christ the Saviour Cathedral are awe-inspiring. As you approach this tallest Orthodox Christian church, you may notice the bronze sculptures, magnificent arches, and cupolas that were created to commemorate Russia’s victory against Napoleon.

How to Get a Decent Haircut in a Foreign Country

Unfortunately, the current Cathedral is a replica, since original was blown to bits in 1931 by the Soviet government. The new cathedral basically follows the original design, but they have added some new elements such as marble high reliefs.

Home to some precious collection of artworks, in Tretyakov Gallery you can find more than 150,000 of works spanning centuries of artistic endeavor. Originally a privately owned gallery, it now has become one of the largest museums in Russia. The Gallery is often considered essential to visit. But I have encountered a lot of locals who have never been there.

Famous for its souvenirs, musicians, and theaters, Arbat street is among the few in Moscow that were turned into pedestrian zones. Arbat street is usually very busy with tourists and locals alike. My local friend once called it the oldest street in Moscow dating back to 1493. It is a kilometer long walking street filled with fancy gift shops, small cozy restaurants, lots of cute cafes, and street artists. It is closed to any vehicular traffic, so you can easily stroll it with kids.

Day 3 – Moscow River Boat Ride, Poklonnaya Hill Victory Park, the Moscow City

Metro Station: Kievskaya and Park Pobedy on Dark Blue Line / Vystavochnaya on Light Blue Line

Voyaging along the Moscow River is definitely one of the best ways to catch a glimpse of the city and see the attractions from a bit different perspective. Depending on your Moscow itinerary, travel budget and the time of the year, there are various types of boats available. In the summer there is no shortage of boats, and you’ll be spoiled for choice.

Travel Itinerary for One Week in Beijing

If you find yourself in Moscow during the winter months, I’d recommend going with Radisson boat cruise. These are often more expensive (yet comfy). They offer refreshments like tea, coffee, hot chocolate, and, of course, alcoholic drinks. Prices may vary but mostly depend on your food and drink selection. Find their main pier near the opulent Ukraine hotel . The hotel is one of the “Seven Sisters”, so if you’re into the charm of Stalinist architecture don’t miss a chance to stay there.

The area near Poklonnaya Hill has the closest relation to the country’s recent past. The memorial complex was completed in the mid-1990s to commemorate the Victory and WW2 casualties. Also known as the Great Patriotic War Museum, activities here include indoor attractions while the grounds around host an open-air museum with old tanks and other vehicles used on the battlefield.

How I Planned My Trip to Vietnam

The hallmark of the memorial complex and the first thing you see as you exit metro is the statue of Nike mounted to its column. This is a very impressive Obelisk with a statue of Saint George slaying the dragon at its base.

Maybe not as impressive as Shanghai’s Oriental Pearl Tower , the skyscrapers of the Moscow City (otherwise known as Moscow International Business Center) are so drastically different from dull Soviet architecture. With 239 meters and 60 floors, the Empire Tower is the seventh highest building in the business district.

The observation deck occupies 56 floor from where you have some panoramic views of the city. I loved the view in the direction of Moscow State University and Luzhniki stadium as well to the other side with residential quarters. The entrance fee is pricey, but if you’re want to get a bird’s eye view, the skyscraper is one of the best places for doing just that.

Day 4 – VDNKh, Worker and Collective Farm Woman Monument, The Ostankino TV Tower

Metro Station: VDNKh on Orange Line

VDNKh is one of my favorite attractions in Moscow. The weird abbreviation actually stands for Russian vystavka dostizheniy narodnogo khozyaystva (Exhibition of Achievements of the National Economy). With more than 200 buildings and 30 pavilions on the grounds, VDNKh serves as an open-air museum. You can easily spend a full day here since the park occupies a very large area.

Places to Visit in Barcelona That Aren’t Beaches

First, there are pavilions that used to showcase different cultures the USSR was made of. Additionally, there is a number of shopping pavilions, as well as Moskvarium (an Oceanarium) that features a variety of marine species. VDNKh is a popular venue for events and fairs. There is always something going on, so I’d recommend checking their website if you want to see some particular exhibition.

A stone’s throw away from VDNKh there is a very distinctive 25-meters high monument. Originally built in 1937 for the world fair in Paris, the hulking figures of men and women holding a hammer and a sickle represent the Soviet idea of united workers and farmers. It doesn’t take much time to see the monument, but visiting it gives some idea of the Soviet Union’s grandiose aspirations.

I have a thing for tall buildings. So to continue my travel itinerary for one week in Moscow I decided to climb the fourth highest TV tower in the world. This iconic 540m tower is a fixture of the skyline. You can see it virtually from everywhere in Moscow, and this is where you can get the best panoramic views (yep, even better than Empire skyscraper).

Parts of the floor are made of tempered glass, so it can be quite scary to exit the elevator. But trust me, as you start observing buildings and cars below, you won’t want to leave. There is only a limited number of tickets per day, so you may want to book online. Insider tip: the first tour is cheaper, you can save up to $10 if go there early.

Day 5 – A Tour To Moscow Manor Houses

Metro Station: Kolomenskoye, Tsaritsyno on Dark Green Line / Kuskovo on Purple Line

I love visiting the manor houses and palaces in Moscow. These opulent buildings were generally built to house Russian aristocratic families and monarchs. Houses tend to be rather grand affairs with impressive architecture. And, depending on the whims of the owners, some form of a landscaped garden.

During the early part of the 20th century though, many of Russia’s aristocratic families (including the family of the last emperor) ended up being killed or moving abroad . Their manor houses were nationalized. Some time later (after the fall of the USSR) these were open to the public. It means that today a great many of Moscow’s finest manor houses and palaces are open for touring.

20 Travel Tips I’ve Learned From Travelling The World

There are 20 manor houses scattered throughout the city and more than 25 in the area around. But not all of them easily accessible and exploring them often takes a lot of time. I’d recommend focusing on three most popular estates in Moscow that are some 30-minute metro ride away from Kremlin.

Sandwiched between the Moscow River and the Andropov Avenue, Kolomenskoye is a UNESCO site that became a public park in the 1920’s. Once a former royal estate, now it is one of the most tranquil parks in the city with gorgeous views. The Ascension Church, The White Column, and the grounds are a truly grand place to visit.

You could easily spend a full day here, exploring a traditional Russian village (that is, in fact, a market), picnicking by the river, enjoying the Eastern Orthodox church architecture, hiking the grounds as well as and wandering the park and gardens with wildflower meadows, apple orchards, and birch and maple groves. The estate museum showcases Russian nature at its finest year-round.

If my travel itinerary for one week in Moscow was a family tree, Tsaritsyno Park would probably be the crazy uncle that no-one talks about. It’s a large park in the south of the city of mind-boggling proportions, unbelievable in so many ways, and yet most travelers have never heard of it.

The palace was supposed to be a summer home for Empress Catherine the Great. But since the construction didn’t meet with her approval the palace was abandoned. Since the early 1990’s the palace, the pond, and the grounds have been undergoing renovations. The entire complex is now looking brighter and more elaborately decorated than at possibly any other time during its history. Like most parks in Moscow, you can visit Tsaritsyno free of charge, but there is a small fee if you want to visit the palace.

How To Stop Procrastinating When Trip Planning

Last, but by no means least on my Moscow itinerary is Kuskovo Park . This is definitely an off-the-beaten-path place. While it is not easily accessible, you will be rewarded with a lack of crowds. This 18th-century summer country house of the Sheremetev family was one of the first summer country estates of the Russian nobility. And when you visit you’ll quickly realize why locals love this park.

Like many other estates, Kuskovo has just been renovated. So there are lovely French formal garden, a grotto, and the Dutch house to explore. Make sure to plan your itinerary well because the estate is some way from a metro station.

Day 6 – Explore the Golden Ring

Creating the Moscow itinerary may keep you busy for days with the seemingly endless amount of things to do. Visiting the so-called Golden Ring is like stepping back in time. Golden Ring is a “theme route” devised by promotion-minded journalist and writer Yuri Bychkov.

Having started in Moscow the route will take you through a number of historical cities. It now includes Suzdal, Vladimir, Kostroma, Yaroslavl and Sergiev Posad. All these awe-inspiring towns have their own smaller kremlins and feature dramatic churches with onion-shaped domes, tranquil residential areas, and other architectural landmarks.

I only visited two out of eight cities included on the route. It is a no-brainer that Sergiev Posad is the nearest and the easiest city to see on a day trip from Moscow. That being said, you can explore its main attractions in just one day. Located some 70 km north-east of the Russian capital, this tiny and overlooked town is home to Trinity Lavra of St. Sergius, UNESCO Site.

Sergiev Posad is often described as being at the heart of Russian spiritual life. So it is uncommon to see the crowds of Russian pilgrims showing a deep reverence for their religion. If you’re traveling independently and using public transport, you can reach Sergiev Posad by bus (departs from VDNKh) or by suburban commuter train from Yaroslavskaya Railway Station (Bahnhof). It takes about one and a half hours to reach the town.

Trinity Lavra of St. Sergius is a great place to get a glimpse of filling and warming Russian lunch, specifically at the “ Gostevaya Izba ” restaurant. Try the duck breast, hearty potato and vegetables, and the awesome Napoleon cake.

Day 7 – Gorky Park, Izmailovo Kremlin, Patriarch’s Ponds

Metro Station: Park Kultury or Oktyabrskaya on Circle Line / Partizanskaya on Dark Blue Line / Pushkinskaya on Dark Green Line

Gorky Park is in the heart of Moscow. It offers many different types of outdoor activities, such as dancing, cycling, skateboarding, walking, jogging, and anything else you can do in a park. Named after Maxim Gorky, this sprawling and lovely park is where locals go on a picnic, relax and enjoy free yoga classes. It’s a popular place to bike around, and there is a Muzeon Art Park not far from here. A dynamic location with a younger vibe. There is also a pier, so you can take a cruise along the river too.

How to Save Money While Traveling in Europe

The Kremlin in Izmailovo is by no means like the one you can find near the Red Square. Originally built for decorative purposes, it now features the Vernissage flea market and a number of frequent fairs, exhibitions, and conferences. Every weekend, there’s a giant flea market in Izmailovo, where dozens of stalls sell Soviet propaganda crap, Russian nesting dolls, vinyl records, jewelry and just about any object you can imagine. Go early in the morning if you want to beat the crowds.

All the Bulgakov’s fans should pay a visit to Patriarch’s Ponds (yup, that is plural). With a lovely small city park and the only one (!) pond in the middle, the location is where the opening scene of Bulgakov’s novel Master and Margarita was set. The novel is centered around a visit by Devil to the atheistic Soviet Union is considered by many critics to be one of the best novels of the 20th century. I spent great two hours strolling the nearby streets and having lunch in the hipster cafe.

Conclusion and Recommendations

To conclude, Moscow is a safe city to visit. I have never had a problem with getting around and most locals are really friendly once they know you’re a foreigner. Moscow has undergone some serious reconstruction over the last few years. So you can expect some places to be completely different. I hope my one week Moscow itinerary was helpful! If you have less time, say 4 days or 5 days, I would cut out day 6 and day 7. You could save the Golden Ring for a separate trip entirely as there’s lots to see!

Gladys Parker

I know very little about Moscow or Russia for the\at matter. I do know I would have to see the Red Square and all of its exquisite architectural masterpieces. Also the CATHEDRAL OF CHRIST THE SAVIOUR. Thanks for shedding some light on visiting Moscow.

Thanks for swinging by! The Red Square is a great starting point, but there way too many places and things to discover aside from it!
