Taganka Dream Tour - Cya On The Road

Hello friends!We are starting our Taganka dream tour. First, I'll explain why the tour is called that way. Taganka – everything is clear here. We are on the border of the Tagansky district. It was from here in the XIV century that Moscow went beyond Kitay-Gorod and began to form settlements. A real city, not just a fortress, was formed here and gradually grew to the mouth of the Yauza, moved to its other shore and mastered Tagansky Hill. That is Taganka in its modern borders began here.Why dreams? A dream is the pursuit of something sublime, spiritually meaningful and beautiful. This is exactly what we consider our Taganka to be and we want all the participants of the tour to come to this understanding as well. We do not want Taganka to remain in your memory as one of the districts of Moscow. Taganka is extremely photogenic and cinematic, countless films have been shot here and continue to be shot right now. We have something that is not available anywhere in the city. And this is not only the confluence of the two largest Moscow rivers, but also an amazing fusion of class cultures that influenced the minds and moods of the entire population of Moscow.Our tour runs through iconic places for the city and completely non-touristic locations, also worthy of admiration. We will tell you about different people who lived, created and glorified Taganka, and there are a lot of them, although only a handful of surnames are heard. We will not talk nonsense and retell the tales that those guides who have nothing to say about Taganka, except technical platitudes and dubious anecdotes for the uninviting public, are so fond of. We want to show you Taganka so that you can bring your family and friends here, walk along the route of the Dream Tour again and tell them at the end: "Now you know what Moscow is."
