Vladimir Putin has opened Zaryadye Park, which is located in the very heart of the capital. Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin took part in the opening ceremony.

“In 2012, you set us the task of transforming this large territory into a park. At the outset various options had been considered, such as building a large business centre or a parliamentary complex. Nevertheless, the decision we made received 100% support of the Muscovites, because there had never been any parks in central Moscow, inside the Boulevard Ring,” the Moscow Mayor said.

Sergei Sobyanin said that a new comfortable area has been created in the centre of the city. At the same time, the park has successfully incorporated historical buildings, including Patriarchal Metochion, churches and cathedrals. 

The Mayor stressed that Zaryadye is a unique park: “This park is a cultural and educational space. It has two major educational centres: the Media Centre and the Ice Cave. The Nature Centre is also an educational space, and there is also the Philharmonic Hall that can seat 1,600 people,” the Moscow Mayor said.

Vladimir Putin expressed his gratitude to Sergei Sobyanin for creating the park. The Russian President and the Moscow Mayor visited the Media Centre, where they were shown a high-tech media complex with a panoramic screen and an interactive image on the floor. The Zaryadye Time Machine film was screened.

They also visited the Large Amphitheatre with 1,600 seats. The President and the Mayor also went up on the unique River Overlook, which became one of Moscow’s largest observation points with a view of the Kremlin.

After touring the park, Vladimir Putin and Sergei Sobyanin visited the Zaryadye café, which hosted a lunch for Moscow students, children from large families and boarding school students, who had received invitations to be the first to visit Zaryadye.

The park will open to the public on 11 September.

Ideas and projects

The decision to create Zaryadye Park dates back to 2012 and came as an alternative to building hotels and business centres on a 400,000 square metre land plot, the most expensive and sought-after piece of land in central Moscow. However, this project would have wreaked traffic havoc on the roads around the Kremlin. The idea to build a parliamentary centre on this territory was also abandoned.

The city authorities asked the public to submit proposals on how the park should look. Many of those ideas were later factored into tender specifications.

In 2013, Moscow held an international competition for developing a landscape and architectural design for Zaryadye Park. There were 90 submissions from architects and designers from 27 countries. The winning proposal for Moscow’s Zaryadye Park came from US architects Diller Scofidio + Renfro. Their proposal was to use the park’s territory to recreate natural landscapes from various geographical zones around Russia. The project demanded innovative construction technology and complex architectural and landscaping solutions.

Construction got underway in 2014, and it took until spring 2015 to dismantle the underground part of former Rossiya Hotel: 375,000 cubic metres of concrete was removed from the site, which is three times the volume of Luzhniki Stadium’s arena.

The preparation of concrete foundations for the park was completed in August 2016, which required 121,000 cubic metres of concrete (the volume of one Luzhniki Stadium’s arena). This concrete platform was needed because the park overlays a large underground parking facility. Vertical planning work was carried out at the same time, and the plot was covered with 250,000 cubic metres of soil. It was the first time that soil was delivered for a construction project in central Moscow by water using barges navigating along the Moskva River. The effort to plant trees and other vegetation got underway in the fall of 2016.

At the same time, the construction of permanent structures within the park territory was in full swing. They have a total floor space of 83,600 square metres, which is almost three times smaller than former Rossiya Hotel, which used to be located there. Most of the newly-built facilities are underground pavilions and parking lots.

The construction of the park was very quick for a project of this scale, since it was mostly completed by City Day 2017, when Moscow celebrated its 870^th anniversary. Every day, as many as 5,000 workers worked there around the clock. The concert hall will open next year.

Ten million people are expected to visit the park every year, making Zaryadye the largest recreational area and a major tourist attraction, as well as a new symbol of Russia. It could also serve as a model for creating and redeveloping parks across the country.

Zaryadye Park as a new symbol of Moscow and Russia

Zaryadye Park is located on a relatively small plot of 10.2 hectares. It has a multi-level landscape, featuring a wide variety of plants, and unique media complexes for holding educational events.

The park was designed as an island of peace and quiet in the city centre, bringing together cultural heritage sites and innovative architecture. Pavilions are hidden underground, so as to create entertainment and educational infrastructure while also offering an unobstructed view of the park.

There are no fences or curbs. Any city resident can easily enter the park, including seniors and people with limited mobility.

The park is equipped with an automated drip watering system, drainage systems for removing rain water and a vacuum waste collection system. Every area within the park has a distinctive lighting design. Energy efficiency is achieved by taking into account seasonal factors and the time of day.

Flight, Time Machine and other major attractions in Zaryadye Park

At the entrance to the park from Vasilyevsky Spusk is the Dome information pavilion. Its interior walls are covered with numerous QR codes that contain information about the park’s history. These can be read via tablets using a special app.

The main pavilion is an 8,500-square-metre Media Centre with five Moscow Now information kiosks (there are 19 in total in the park), the Flight and Time Machine attractions, the Tourist Information Centre, an Exhibition Hall, a Media Studio, and a gift shop. There are also cloakrooms, halls and baby care rooms. A café will open before the end of the year.

At information kiosks guests will find out more about the park and the surrounding neighbourhood as well as the events programme. The kiosks will also be selling tickets to Flight and Time Machine, the underground museum and exhibitions. An electronic ticket selling and data processing system is about to be tested.

The Tourist Information Centre is located in the middle of the lobby. Ten consultants will advise visitors on the activities underway in the park and help them purchase tickets. There are 12 screens at the centre displaying information about upcoming events in the park as well as video ads with offers for visitors.

Below ground is a parking lot for 430 vehicles, both cars and tourist buses. There are designated parking spaces for people with restricted mobility. Sixteen lifts will take visitors to any of the pavilions. The parking lot will open within a month.

The Flight media venue is a unique cinema with a 13-metre-tall screen and a moving platform with 39 seats. At the cinema, visitors can watch 8-minute films, Flight Over Moscow and Flight Over Russia, the latter to be available this winter. The interactive adventure promises a real feeling of flight and special effects, including water sprinklers, wind, smoke and aroma generators. The hourly turnover at the venue can be up to 195 viewers.

Another attraction, Time Machine, is a 360-degree panoramic screen, 16.5 metres in diametre and 5 metres tall. Images will be projected onto the floor as well. The venue is equipped with 33 projectors and a 32-channel sound system. The visitors will not be passive observers: they will participate in the events on the screen and learn about Moscow’s history from ancient times until today. Time Machine can accommodate up to 180 people an hour. The two projects were developed by Dynamic Attractions (Canada) and Kraftwerk (Austria), creators of the best amusements at major parks around the world.

The Exhibition Hall is at the ground level of the Media Centre. It will host temporary exhibitions that will run for three to four months. The Russian Arctic will be the first exhibition on display, with a collection of unique photographs from the late 19^th to mid-20^th centuries from the Russian Ethnography Museum, works by artists and polar explorers created during expeditions, rare photos and videos courtesy of the Russian Geographical Society, recreated household items identical to those used by polar explorers and indigenous peoples of the North, and much more.

The Media Studio is a creative lab covering an area of 136 square metres. Professional workshops will be hosted here on digital animation, public speaking, basic television journalism, film directing and editing and blogging.

Zaryadye’s second largest pavilion, the Nature Centre (3,300 sq m), includes the Ice Cave themed hall, a Florarium, an educational centre, a café, a gift shop and a bar.

Ice Cave is located to the left of the main entrance. It is a 1,000-square-metre zone of below zero temperatures. Visitors will walk through labyrinths and see arches and columns covered in ice and illuminated with LED lights. The temperature in the cave is around −5 degrees Celsius. Some 70 tonnes of water were frozen to create the artificial ice.

So far only the first stage of the ice cave has been completed. Some of the ice installations are ready and function as support structures. Labyrinths and arches will be built during the second stage. In summer, visitors will be offered warm blankets. The expected attendance is 130 people per hour. The project was designed by artist Alexander Ponomaryov.

The Florarium greenhouse is located in the main hall of the pavilion. More than 500 plants of 30 species are on display here. The greenhouse uses aeroponics systems that allow growing plants without soil, a method typical for space programmes and plant breeding. Climate control systems maintain the required humidity, air temperature and lighting. Florarium will open shortly.

The Nature Centre scientific and educational centre can be access via the lobby around the greenhouse. The centre will host scientific experiments, interactive quests, lectures and seminars. It comprises a conference hall seating 48, four classrooms and a lab (for 20 seats each).

The lab is equipped with climate control systems for cultivating plants in artificial environments, thermostats, microbiology incubators, centrifuges, genetic analysis devices and other. Similar equipment is used in modern research centres.

Students will be able to attend lectures, workshops and applied research offered by more than 50 programmes in biotechnology, microbiology, genetics, medicine, ecology and geography.

Cultural heritage next to innovation

All the historical sites were preserved around Zaryadye Park and can be seen from the hill of the Nature Centre pavilion, including the Kremlin, St Basil’s Cathedral and museums of the Patriarch’s Metochion.

The Church of Great Martyr Barbara on Varvarka, the Old English Court, St Maximus Church, the cathedral and the bell tower of the Znamensky Monastery, the chambers of the Romanov Boyars, Church of St George the Victorious on Pskov Hill, the Church of the Conception of St Anne and the Kitai-Gorod Wall hold a prominent place in the Russian architecture.

New concert venue in the heart of Moscow

Zaryadye Park will have a multifunctional world class concert venue, with two halls and two amphitheatres with a total capacity of 3,960 people. The Large Amphitheatre, partly covered by the Glass Canopy and partly in the open air, will have 1,600 seats and will host concerts, festivals and other events. The Small Amphitheatre with 400 seats will be adjacent to it.

The Glass Canopy in Zaryadye is the world’s largest translucent structure without enclosing walls, covering an area of 8,700 square metres. Powered by solar panels, the structure has its own microclimate, warmer than outside.

The concert hall underneath the Glass Canopy will be hidden behind another landscape element, an artificial hill erected by Russian designers and builders according to the concept by Buro Happold engineers.

The Philharmonic is to open next year. The two concert halls, capable of seating a total of 1,960 people (1,560 seats in the bigger hall and 400 in the smaller one) will have transformable stalls. Acoustic tests were conducted under the guidance of the president of Nagata Acoustics, Yasuhisa Toyota, who designed the Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles, the Richard Fisher Centre in New York and many others.

From River Overlook to Underground Museum

One of landmarks of Zaryadye Park will be the River Overlook bridge – an observation deck over the Moskva River. A highly complex 70-metre structure, the cantilevered console without pillars or support structures soaring at the height of 15 metres above the water connects the park with the river. The total length of the bridge is 244.4 metres. From here visitors can enjoy panoramic views of the Kremlin, the Moskva River embankment and the park itself.

Under the bridge, the lower embankment of the Moskva River now has recreation areas by the water, a cafe, a gift shop and a water-bus station. On the right is an underground passage that leads directly to the park. That underpass houses the Zaryadye Underground Museum, which displays a collection of artefacts found in Kitai-Gorod and Zaryadye areas. Guests will see a fragment of the 16^th-century Kitai-Gorod Wall, white stone cannon balls, customs seals (Russian and West European), coin treasures, tiles, samples of ancient Russian footwear such as stacked heel boots, falcon rufter hoods, and children’s clay toys.

Old maps and plans will come alive thanks to modern multimedia and interactive technology. Through the museum’s glass floor, visitors will be able to see part of the ancient Velikaya Ulitsa – the main street of the Zaryadye area that stretched from the Kremlin walls and to the embankment. They will also see a 3D model of a birch bark letter, the one historians from the Institute of Archaeology of the Russian Academy of Sciences found in Zaryadye in 2015. In the entire history of archaeological excavations in Moscow, only three such letters had been found, and this is the fourth one.

Gourmet tour of Russia

Zaryadye Cafe is to the left of the River Overlook bridge. The café’s eight gourmet stations will treat guests to dishes made according to the recipes from various Russian regions. A sign at each station will indicate which cities and towns belong to this region. A total of 374 places in Russia will be represented. Products from various parts of the country will be used in the cooking, from the Far East to Crimea. Raw ingredients will be available for sale to be used at home.

Voskhod Restaurant’s theme is space exploration. Here you can try borscht, draniki, manty, khinkali, pilaf, shish kebab, sprats and much more.

Journey over the Russian natural zones

The new park features four Russian natural zones: the northern landscape, meadowland, the steppe and a temperate zone forest (mixed, coniferous, riparian forests and birch woodlands). Each of these zones has its own soil type, typical for the particular region. Birches, for example, were brought to Zaryadye from the Perm Territory. It was not easy to Recreate the steppe was a major challenge since it is dependent on chernozyom, or fertile black soil. To recreate this natural zone, workers used loam with crushed limestone for better alkaline reactivity and good soil drainage vital for plants in the steppe. The roof of the Nature Centre pavilion is the tundra zone, where visitors can see marsh elder, Siberian dwarf pine and other plants.

Over a million plants have been planted in the Zaryadye Park, including 760 trees, 7,000 shrubs, 860,000 perennials and 150,000 annuals. There are rare plants as well, including arctic-alpine willows, needle grass, Arctic bramble and dwarf birch. Some of the plants are listed in the Red Book of Moscow, such as breckland thyme, Solomon’s seal, lily of the valley, eryngium, globeflower and maiden pink.

To plant over a million specimens, the workers used lightweight soil mixes developed by the best Russian plant breeders. The specially designed soil mixes reduced pressure on the park’s concrete structures. Due to their design, the park’s benches seem to be growing out of the ground.

The park’s central part has lawns for walking and leisure (mowed lawns with walking paths), and beds with grasses (cocksfoot, timothy, fescue grass) and flowers (chamomile, daisy, bluebell, white clover). Here the meadow blends into the birch wood and the steppe.

A riparian landscape was created in the southern part of the park adjacent to the Moskva River embankment. The basis of this landscape are trees that used to grow in the park 80 years ago: limes, maples and oak trees. There are ponds decorated with water plants and riparian vegetation typical of ponds in the Moscow Region. The ground vegetation around the ponds turns the territory into a wet meadow. The riparian forest mainly consists of several species: willows, bird cherries and arrow- wood trees. To the right of the Voskhod restaurant there is an area with a coniferous forest, which mainly consists of fir trees and pine trees. Visitors can look forward to new plants that will come up in spring.

Some of the areas in the park are currently covered with roll out turf. This is temporary: the perennials planted under them need to be protected from winter temperatures.

The park also features:

Themed lawns — illuminated areas with temporary art installations;

A northern lawn — a local territory in the northern landscape zone;

A boardwalk — an extended linear zone leading from the Ice Cave to the Zaryadye café.

The total length of paths and walkways in the park is 8 kilometres (including 1.8 kilometres of heated walkways). Moreover, 460 lampposts and 256 benches have been installed in the park.

New look of the streets around Zaryadye Park

In 2016 and 2017, the streets adjacent to the Kremlin and Zaryadye Park, as well as the Patriarchal Metochion, were renovated under the My Street programme. The total area renovated under the programme is 32.3 hectares.

This includes:

Moskvoretskaya Embankment (1 km);

Moskvoretskaya Street (0.7 km);

Kitaygorodsky Proyezd (0.5 km);

Varvarka Street (0.7 km);

Birzhevaya Square (0.1 km);

Staraya Square (0.5 km);

Rybny Pereulok (0.2 km);

Bogoyavlensky Pereulok (0.3 km).

The total length of the renovated sections is 4 kilometres.

The streets now have new pavements and the sidewalks have been paved with granite tiles. The city also upgraded the lighting system and installed information display boards for pedestrians.

The city has also reconstructed the drains and installed gutter inlets. Overhead electric lines were placed underground in the specially designed cable-conduit system.

A fountain with a flat round bowl will be the central feature of Birzhevaya Square. During the excavation, the workers discovered archaeological artefacts, including fragments of white stone and brick structures from historical buildings. The artefacts were preserved. In autumn trees will be planted on the square.

Zaryadye Park (Russian: Парк Зарядье) is a landscape urban park located adjacent to Red Square in Moscow, Russia, on the site of the former Rossiya Hotel. The park was inaugurated on 9 September 2017 by Russian President Vladimir Putin and Moscow Mayor Sergey Sobyanin.

Time magazine included Zaryadye Park on its 2018 list of the “World’s Greatest Places”.^[2]

Description[edit]

The area of the park’s facilities is almost 78,000 square meters, of which 25,200 square meters is occupied by a multipurpose concert hall. The park also has underground parking for 430 cars. The first new park in Moscow for over 50 years, its construction cost more than $480 million.^[3] Plans for a new park were first raised in 2012 when the city of Moscow and its chief architect Sergey Kuznetsov organized a design competition to transform the historically privatized, commercial Zaryadye area into a public park. An international design consortium led by Diller Scofidio + Renfro (DS+R) with Hargreaves Associates, Citymakers and BuroHappold Engineering was selected out of 90 submissions from 27 different countries. The selected competition design sought to create a park borne of Russian and Muscovite heritage.

The main feature of the park is its facilities hidden under the landscape, while the park itself is divided into four climatic zones: forest, steppe, tundra, and the floodplains. These zones are organized in terraces that descend from northeast to southwest, with each layering over the next to create a total of 14,000 square meters of enclosed, programmed spaces integrated into the landscape: nature and architecture act as one. Visitors can enjoy a river overlook cantilevering 70 meters over Moscow River, media center, nature center, restaurant, market, two amphitheaters and a philharmonic concert hall.

Another feature of the new park is a picturesque view of the Kremlin, which visitors can enjoy from the Soaring bridge over the Moskva River.

Soaring bridge[edit]

The Soaring bridge is a thin airy V-shaped structure with a large outward extension above the water. The bridge protracts 70 meters without a single support. The bearing structure of the bridge is made of concrete and the decorative elements are made of metal; the deck is wooden. The construction withstands a load of 240 tons corresponding to three to four thousand people. High fences are installed so that no one can climb or jump over the sides of the bridge.

Media center[edit]

The media center covers an area of 8500 square meters. It exhibits Russian natural and architectural sights and covers various topics of the Russian history, such as the Battle of Borodino, the fire of Moscow, and the Council at Fili. In one of the pavilions of the media center, viewers are shown films about cultural monuments, protected areas and historical places of Russia. In the cinema, three rows of chairs are located on a movable platform in front of a concave screen, its shape creating a panoramic image.

The only digital media hall in Russia with a cylindrical screen and an interactive image virtually transports viewers to the times during the formation of Moscow.

Ice cave[edit]

A stylized pavilion with an interactive exhibition tells visitors about the history of development of the Far North. In one part of the pavilion, a negative temperature is maintained. For the thickness of the ice, freezing of about 70 tons of water is required. The temperature in the cave does not rise above -2 °C and does not fall below -12 °C. The cover of the cave itself is a natural white colour.

In the ice cave, an educational site, the «Conservation Embassy», was also started. Employees of national reserves and other environmental institutions are able to conduct educational programs here, as well as exchange experiences in the field of biology and ecology.

Concert hall[edit]

In the park there is a concert hall with an amphitheatre. The building under a glass dome with an organ and a stage-transformer is a multifunctional concert venue. The building is set into the hill and it is possible to walk along its roof. Only the glass facade remains open.

The new Philharmonic replaces the concert site of the demolished Rossiya Hotel, on the site of which the park was built. It hosts symphonic music, as well as pop and jazz concerts.

Amphitheatres[edit]

The large amphitheatre adjoins to the Philharmonic and it is covered with a dome, the so-called glass bark, to protect the audience from the rain. The amphitheatre is a stepped landscape design descending from the hill to the stage. The spots are made of wood. The paths between the rows are filled with small pebbles and become part of the drainage system. The amphitheatre organically fits into the natural landscape of the park. The large open amphitheatre in Zaryadye can accommodate 1500 spectators.

The small amphitheatre, in which a media screen is installed, is designed for 400 visitors. The screen is used for film screenings, concerts, lectures and other events. The design of the summer amphitheatre was developed by the winner of the 2012 competition for the project of Zaryadye Park.

«Flight over Russia» attraction[edit]

On a 12-meter parabolic screen, viewers sitting on special dynamic platforms are shown about 30 unique natural locations in Russia, taken from a height. In one session the attraction is able to accommodate 40 people, and its capacity is 400 spectators per hour.

Zaryadye Park

Zaryadye Park is a landscape urban park located near Red Square in Moscow which sits on a historically charged site. Its scale and complexity of engineering solutions are amazing. The area of the park’s facilities is almost there  78 thousand square metres. Also, you can find there an underground parking for 430 cars.

The main feature of the park is that all its objects are hidden under the landscape. In this green space Zaryadye will not be monotonous because the entire territory of the park is divided into four terrestrial zones: forest, steppe, tundra, and the floodplains. These zones are organised in terraces that descend from northeast to southwest. Another advantage of the new park is a picturesque view of the Kremlin which visitors can admire from the «floating bridge» over the Moskva River. After a walk in the park you can have fun on the attractions.

Zaryadye Park is a park located in the centre of Moscow close to Red Square. It was opened in September 2017. The name of the park comes from one of the oldest Moscow districts, Zaryadye, the history of which goes back to the beginning of the XII century.
An international team of architects, engineers and designers created this modern public place. Here we can see nature and technology, history and modernity so close together.
There are many things to see. Ice Cave with minus temperature has the atmosphere of the Far North. So close to the Kremlin the authors have created the building that takes the visitors on a journey through ice and snow. Almost 70 tons of water were frozen to achieve a beautiful 7,5 cm ice covering on the walls. The Museum of Nature sounds offers a new way to feel the world around you. Underground Museum tells about the history of the place. There was the very first street in Moscow here in ancient times – the Main street (Velikaya).
The educational centre The Conservation Embassy developed many courses, quests, laboratory classes and workshops for people of all ages interested in history, art, technology, plants, animals and many other spheres of life on the planet.
Zaryadye is a quiet place where we can have some rest from the rhythm of the city. The park is covered with trees, grass, plants and ponds, which illustrate different types of climate of the country, from the Far North to the grasslands of central Asia.

A. If you mention travelling to Moscow in the winter, most foreign tourists will think you are crazy. Many of them will imagine snow, freezing temperatures and having to wear big parkas and fur hats. They are missing out, though, because winter in Moscow is like a fairy tale, and one of the most beautiful times of the year to visit. There is so much to see and do that the chance to visit this beautiful city during the winter should not be missed.

B. The shocking truth is that the Russian capital at wintertime is not as cold as many people would imagine. While the weather can be unpredictable, most of the time the temperature is around –5 degrees Celsius with a moderate amount of snow. Compared to Siberia, it is very mild. The biggest problems are that you can slip and fall on the ice, and salt on the sidewalks which can destroy your boots.

C. Many famous places of interest in Moscow become magical in the winter. Red Square is one of the first places to go to. With the snow falling gently, Saint Basil’s Cathedral looks like a giant wedding cake covered in icing. Another place one should certainly visit is Novodevichy Convent with its lacelike towers and golden domes. When surrounded by snow, it resembles a fairy-tale castle of a beautiful princess.

D. Muscovites enjoy a wide variety of sports and activities in the wintertime. Cross-country skiing is a great way to both get fit and enjoy the winter beauty of the many public parks in Moscow. Another favorite pastime is ice skating. There is a giant skating rink every winter in Red Square and many smaller rinks throughout the city. There are many other winter sports that are popular such as snowboarding, sledding and ice fishing.

E. There are a lot of events in Moscow that can be experienced only in winter. The New Year holiday celebration is the most special time of the year and is like Christmas and New Year’s Eve combined into one big party. The Russian Winter festival features performances of traditional Russian song and dance, games, crafts and ice sculptures. Finally, those feeling brave can dive into an ice hole for the Epiphany holiday.

F. If you get too cold while walking around, you can always go into a shop to warm up. There are many modern shopping malls throughout Moscow, but if you want to experience the retro charm and nostalgia of days past, there is no better place than GUM on Red Square or Eliseevsky food store on Tverskaya. In addition, there are many cafes located throughout the city if you need a hot drink or something to eat.

G.

If you make Russian friends, you may get invited to their dacha and see the beautiful winter countryside outside Moscow. Here the snow will be deeper and the temperatures lower, but you won’t be too cold as Russians have ways to stay warm. Best of all is the Russian Steam Bath. You can sit in the steam and when you find yourself hot and sweaty, you can do as the Russians do and jump in the snow outside to cool off.
