Vorobyovy Gory nature reserve

Sparrow Hills
russia, Moscow
Sparrow Hills is the name of an area in the south-west of Moscow, which is a high right bank of the Moscow River, covered with a forest park. Located opposite the Luzhniki Stadium, it is considered one of the "seven hills of Moscow". They stretch from the mouth of the Setun River to the Andreevsky Bridge of the Small Ring of the Moscow Railway. In the east it borders on the Neskuchny Garden.

The landscape of the Sparrow Hills forms a park of the same name, which includes three ponds, as well as an array of broad-leaved forests. In 1998, the Sparrow Hills State Nature Reserve was created, declared a specially protected natural area. Currently, the reserve is implementing a number of projects aimed at protecting the natural and historical heritage of Moscow.

The dominant feature of the Sparrow Hills, of course, is the observation deck of Moscow State University. The view of Moscow is such that it takes your breath away. If you plan to visit this place, it is best to do it on a weekend. In this case, you will be able to see dozens of brides and grooms who come to this place from all over Moscow and the Moscow region. The sight of happy young faces greatly improves mood. If you spent the whole day exploring other interesting places, then the observation deck is quite suitable for both evening and night visits.
