The Far North, Moscow rooftops and whales singing: what awaits us in virtual reality
The RUSSIA
EXPO opens a portal to other worlds. Every day guests of VDNH can see new
places, travel to the past and the future. All thanks to VR-cinema.
VR-cinema
in the Smart City
The Smart City pavilion has a unique VR-cinema. Guests can watch several movies about Moscow. For example, walk along the roofs of the capital, see its past and future, look into such iconic places as Intourist and National hotels. Even for residents of the capital, Moscow will open up in a new way, and guests will fall in love with it even more.
Teleport

The
VR-cinema at the Russian Geographical Society stand in Pavilion C will
"teleport" viewers to the most beautiful places in Russia. You can
fly over the nests of guillemots on the Kola Peninsula, see clouds over
Ai-Petri in the Crimea, dive to visit a ringed seal in the Sea of Okhotsk, and
hear gray whales singing.

himself and listen to the stories of Peter Semenov-Tyan-Shansky about his
adventures in Altai and Central Asia.
