The interactive route invites you to travel through the most iconic and legendary places of the Russian capital, to learn about their history, and also to see the city through the eyes of a child. At the end of the interactive journey, its participants will take a knowledge test. Everyone will be able to take one or several tests at once: knowledge of interesting historical facts about Moscow, knowledge of Russian New Year traditions. According to the results of the test, a questionnaire will appear, and by filling it out, the user will have the chance to participate in a unique prize draw.
