Krasny Prospekt
Красный проспект
A main thoroughfare about 7 km long through the city center, linking theaters, churches, museums and Stalinist-style buildings.
Krasny Prospekt (Red Avenue) is Novosibirsk's central axis, about 7 km long, running north from the banks of the Ob River. Its southern section, stretching from Alexander Nevsky Cathedral and the art museum past St. Nicholas Chapel to Lenin Square, holds the city's most important historic buildings and museums, with a tree-lined pedestrian promenade in the middle. Along the way are many Stalinist and Constructivist buildings, cafés and shopping centers. Metro Line 1 allows you to explore sections of the avenue in stages.
