Zaryadye Park
Парк «Зарядье»
A modern urban park next to Red Square, with a cantilevered “floating bridge” reaching out over the Moskva River, it is one of the best spots for panoramic views of the Kremlin.
Zaryadye Park opened in 2017 and covers about 13 hectares. It brings together four of Russia's natural landscapes, tundra, steppe, forest and wetland, in the city center. The most popular feature is the V-shaped “Floating Bridge,” which extends about 70 meters over the river. From here, you can see the Kremlin, St. Basil's Cathedral and a Stalinist skyscraper all at once. The park also has an underground ice cave, the “Flight Over Russia” dome theater at the media center, and the Philharmonic concert hall. The park is free to enter, but some venues charge separate fees. It is about a 5-minute walk from Red Square and can be combined with a Moskva River boat cruise.
Opening hours
Park open all day; exhibition halls about 10:00–22:00
