Route No. 2 (Eastern District)
The tram passes through Metrogorodok, Bogorodskoye, Preobrazhenskoye and Sokolinaya Gora. During the trip, you will pass through the favorite places of the residents of these areas - the Church of the Transfiguration of the Lord (stop "Bogorodsky Temple") and Preobrazhenskaya Square.
The Bogorodsky Church is the only wooden church of the 19th century that has been preserved in Moscow. It contains real shrines: especially revered icons of the Mother of God of Tikhvin, Smolensk, Jerusalem, "Joy of All Who Sorrow", icons of the prophet Elijah, St. Sergius and Serifim, St. Nicholas the Wonderworker with life and others.
The roots of the name of both the square and the district itself come from the Church of the Transfiguration of the Lord. Under Soviet rule, the church remained one of the few functioning churches in the capital. In 1963, the authorities decided to demolish the church in connection with the construction of the subway, and a year later the church was already closed and prepared for demolition. In 2009, the church began to be restored. Today, the temple with a refectory has been completely recreated almost in its original form. Specialists raised the building on a stylobate 4.2 meters high, which allowed the temple to become a dominant feature in the modern ensemble of Preobrazhenskaya Square and gave the parish additional premises.

Route number 3
The tram runs along the Southern, Southwestern and Central districts of the capital. The stops Serpukhovskaya Zastava, St. Danilov Monastery, Danilovsky Val Street, Paveletskaya Metro, Tretyakovskaya Metro and Novokuznetskaya Metro will be of the greatest interest.
In the park on the north side of Serpukhovskaya Zastava Square there is a monument to Prince Daniil of Moscow, erected in honor of the 850th anniversary of the founding of the Mother See and in honor of St. Prince Daniel Alexandrovich. The prince is depicted on the monument in rich clothes, holding a temple in his left hand, and a sword in his right. The temple in the left hand serves as a symbol of his religiosity and devotion to the deeds of charity, piety and mercy. And the sword in the sheath symbolizes the peacefulness of the ruler, because the prince used the weapon only as a way of political pressure on opponents, and not bloody internecine wars.
The Holy Danilov Monastery is located on the right bank of the Moskva River. This is a stauropegial monastery, that is, subordinate to Patriarch Kirill - Patriarch of Moscow and All Russia, Bishop of the Russian Orthodox Church.
On Danilovsky Val there is the Mint, where coins, medals and orders are prepared according to the state order, and a small chapel of Daniil of Moscow, built in the neo-Russian style. On its facade there are mosaic icons of Alexander Nevsky, Daniil of Moscow, Ivan Kalita and Dmitry Donskoy.
At the Paveletskaya metro stop, it is worth taking a look around, because here is the famous Paveletsky railway station. This major transport hub connects Moscow with the Middle and Lower Volga regions and the cities of the Caucasus. Paveletsky railway station serves more than 10 thousand passengers daily. An interesting fact: in 1924, a train with the body of Vladimir Lenin arrived at the station. In honor of this event station Square received the name of the leader and wore it from 1941 to 1992. In 1979–1980, there was a pavilion-museum "The Funeral Train of Lenin" here.
Do not miss the stop "Metro" Tretyakovskaya ". Here is located one of the key attractions of the capital - the Tretyakov Gallery, which contains the world's largest collection of Russian paintings, drawings and sculptures. And near this stop is Shurik's house from the film "Ivan Vasilyevich Changes Profession", where the filming took place.
Many sights can be seen if you stop at the Novokuznetskaya metro stop. For example, the Church of Pope Clement, which is especially beautiful at sunset. The temple was built on a royal scale, and the magnificent decor in the Baroque and Rococo styles gives it solemnity and majesty.
Route number 7
This route passes through the Eastern and Central districts of Moscow. Getting on the tram number 7, do not miss four stops: Komsomolskaya Square, Prospekt Mira Metro, Olimpiysky Sports Complex and Gilyarovskogo Street.
Any Muscovite will recognize Komsomolskaya Square: it is the area of three stations, where three important transport hubs are located - Leningradsky, Yaroslavsky and Kazansky stations. By the way, the area is also famous in culture - the song "Komsomolskaya Square" was performed at different times by Eduard Khil and the vocal and instrumental ensemble "Gems".
Near the metro station "Prospect Mira" is a whole bunch of attractions. Perhaps one of the most interesting places on this list is the Hospice House, famous almost all over the world. Luxurious architectural structure in the classical style is located on the northern side of Bolshaya Sukharevskaya Square.
If you fall asleep at the Olimpiysky Sports Complex stop, you will miss one of the largest sports and entertainment venues in Russia and Europe. At different times, significant sports competitions were held here: Olympic Games 1980, world championships in various sports, European championships (in artistic gymnastics, taekwondo, swimming, traditional karate and volleyball), the first World Youth Games and much more. In addition, domestic and foreign musicians often give concerts here, gathering fans from all over Russia.
The key attraction of Gilyarovsky Street is Solodovnikov's apartment building - an object cultural heritage, which is also known as the "Free Citizen" complex for singles.
Route number 8
This route runs through East and Central districts capital Cities. Here, only one stop is of interest, which is worth stopping at - the Moscow Transport Museum. Here you can see a large collection of vintage cars and public transport. By the way, at the end of September, an exhibition of stencils with metro routes and land transport different years.
Route number 9
On this tram, you should go to the final stops - Miussky Park, Metro Belorusskaya and Tverskaya Zastava.
Miussky park is located in the Tverskoy district of the capital. In summer and autumn it is especially pleasant to walk here. Under the lush crowns of trees painted in bright green or fiery red color, time will fly by unnoticed.
At the stop "Metro" Belorusskaya "pay attention to the profitable house of F. Yezersky, built in the Art Nouveau style. Its main decoration is the undulating attic supported by the oval windows of the upper floor.
The stop "Ploshchad Tverskaya Zastava" is curious about the temple of St. Nicholas the Wonderworker. In the post-war years, art workshops were kept here.
Route number 13
On this route, you will come across an interesting sight at the Sokolniki Metro stop. This is not about the park: due to the construction of the Stromynka metro station, it will not be possible to see the park. But you will see the Sokolniki fire tower. The fire station was built in 1884 after many requests from Muscovites. The tower served to prevent a fire: earlier, in the 19th century, there were not so many high-rise buildings in Moscow, so the construction made it possible to see the fire from a great distance. Today, the height of the tower seems insignificant. Currently, it houses the Directorate of the Main Fire Service of the Eastern District.

Route number 17
The tram passes through the territory of the North-Eastern District of Moscow. On weekends, its route is much shorter, with only seven stations. It is not even necessary to get off the tram, you will see everything through the window. Here is the VDNH park, where tourists from all over the world come to visit the famous pavilions, and the huge sculpture "Worker and Collective Farm Girl", which serves as a symbol of the Soviet era, and, of course, Ostankino tower, which can be seen from almost every corner of the capital. From its top, a stunning view of Moscow opens up - the Mother See seems so small that you are amazed.
In contrast to the countless number of bus tours, the tram tour not only allows you to get acquainted with the history of the city, but in itself is unusual entertainment. Searching the Internet for such a service in Moscow, we managed to find only two suitable offers. And then, only one of them turned out to be a real tram.
