GOUM
This luxurious hall, which revisits the Soviet style with its galleries, fountains and bridges, is the most beautiful in the country.
The Goum, a sumptuously decorated shopping mall, has always marked the border between the elite and the people. Under the USSR, it was a showcase for the best Soviet products, but chronic shortages meant that only members of the nomenklatura had access to these shops. Today, it is the newly rich who have taken their place in the aisles of the big Western luxury brands. The large central aisle with a fountain in the centre is worth a visit, but the posted prices are prohibitive.

Avec une galerie couverte sur 2 niveaux, elle a de nombreux magasins. En hiver, penser à prendre une glace, comme les russes... :)
Incontournable sur la place rouge.
C'est devenu un temple de la consommation de luxe capitaliste mais le cadre est magnifique.
A voir y compris quand il est illuminé le soir
On peut se restaurer mais les toilettes à chaque niveau sont payantes. 50 roubles.
La décoration est impressionnante et attire de nombreux badauds.
