It is a pleasure to walk around the Exposition during the day. But a night walk in the company of an experienced guide who will tell a lot of interesting things about the architecture and history of the exposition objects can be equally exciting. Now the "Night Lights of VDNH" route is available for the guests of the exposition. 

Participants of the new tour will see how the familiar symbols of VDNH change with the coming of evening, as well as learn about the way the space has been transformed since the beginning of the International RUSSIA EXPO. The route was developed by the program of Rosmolodezh "More than a Trip".

NIGHT LIGHTS OF VDNH 14+

Monumental arch at the Main Entrance, striking fountains "Friendship of the Peoples of the USSR" and "Stone Flower", large-scale pavilions "Agriculture" and "Culture" - there are many architectural masterpieces on the territory of the Exposition. Moreover, 49 objects are even recognized as monuments of cultural heritage. And each of them holds legends, stories and secrets, which will be revealed during the excursion "Night Lights of VDNH".
