Kolomenskoye

Private swap from Poncha

Kolomenskoye is a former royal estate situated several miles to the south-east of Moscow downtown, on the ancient road leading to the town of Kolomna.  The scenic area which overlooks the steep banks of the Moskva River became a part of Moscow in the 1960s. The Ascension church (1532) was inscribed by UNESCO as World Heritage Site in 1994.
