Moscow's autumn, as always, splashed its gray colors across the streets. The leaves that had fallen from the trees reminded us of days gone by, when the sun still warmed the earth. At this time, Nikolskaya Street, in a small bar, regulars were having their conversations, and time seemed to stand still in this cozy corner of Moscow.
Among the visitors were two legendary figures - Isadora Duncan And Ivan ZabelinComing from completely different eras, they met, as if in a time warp, to discuss one of the most timeless topics—football. Indeed, it became the topic of their heated debate, which might seem unbelievable for a historian and a dancer.
Zabelin, renowned for his work on Moscow, spoke of football as a new art form, captivating in its dynamism and passion. His eyes lit up as he described how the team moved across the field like an orchestra performing a symphony. Duncan, for her part, saw football as a dance, where every player was an artist, and the game a spectacle, full of drama and beauty.
Their conversation was charged with emotion, as if they were discussing their own passions. Isadora, with her passionate love of freedom and movement, admired how footballers find harmony in the chaos of the game. Zabelin, for his part, saw football as a reflection of history, with each match a new page in the annals.
Outside the bar, the weather hinted at approaching winter. Passersby, bundled in coats, hurried about their business, unaware of the unusual meeting taking place within the bar's walls. But inside, amid the aroma of hot appetizers and the clinking of glasses, time seemed to stand still, allowing these two great men to discuss the essence of football.
At some point, the discussion took a more philosophical turn. They began discussing how football connects people, erasing the boundaries between cultures and eras. Isadora, recalling her performances, spoke of how the art of dance can unite people, regardless of their origins. Zabelin, for his part, saw football as a reflection of the spirit of Moscow, its diversity and history.
Their conversation ended on a positive note. They agreed that, despite all their differences, both dance and football serve the same purpose—to inspire and unite people. And in this, they saw true art.

A very nice young man, we visited with him such lovely courtyards, alleys, the existence of which we did not even suspect, we learned so many new things,
We really liked everything and hope to continue our acquaintance.
Alexander! Thank you! We had a great time with you and thoroughly enjoyed it. See you soon!
What we personally missed: we would have liked more of a historical section related to ancient Moscow and the history of Kitay-gorod. There were quite a few stories about the Soviet period and bar life, but for our group, it wasn't very relevant. We think the program could have been more tailored to the age and interests of the group.
It would also have been interesting to add more historical facts, monuments, and details about old Moscow and the area itself. That said, the tour was still interesting, and some places and churches were truly memorable. These aren't really "cons," but rather suggestions for an even more comprehensive program.
We had a corporate group of 10 people. Our guide was Anton, and we had a tour of Bulgakov. I would like to point out the excellent organization; everything went smoothly. The managers were very accommodating to our changes in the number of participants. The bus was very comfortable. Anton is a super-engaged and motivated guide.
He lives this story and takes great pleasure in sharing his knowledge and creating impressions.
Everything went well. I recommend it!

Was on excursions along Sukharevskaya Square – we reached Tsvetnoy Boulevard, I didn’t expect it to be so interesting!
For those who are wondering whether to go or not – go, it really has become one of the coolest summer memories!!!
Thank you and Masha for yesterday!
The speakers are happy. The connection in the headphones often failed, especially at the checkpoint, but this is our current life situation. It was audible if they were standing close, no further than 1.5 meters. Colleagues have already asked for your contacts. I will gladly share and will be glad to have a new opportunity to work with you. Special thanks to the Director for the Bureau
Note: excursion “Heart of the capital"for participants of the Moscow Oncology Forum 2025. Guides – Anastasia and Maria
It was very interesting to hear how the Krasnaya district developed. Presni, how Prokhorov's figure influenced the development of our city. A pleasant dive into a quiet, previously unexplored area!
Note: we are talking about the excursion with the guide Anton
There was a great tour of the area. Patricks.
We learned a lot of new things. Anastasia is a master of her craft. The tour was exciting, not boring at all, lively and interesting. Everyone was satisfied. Full of new impressions. I definitely recommend it. You will be satisfied!
Overall, this wasn’t the first time I’ve walked around Moscow with Anton, and each time it was a real adventure!
I wanted to express my gratitude once again for the wonderful excursion on Saturday - we really enjoyed the walk, the information and the communication with you, then we discussed for a long time what everyone remembered and what struck them. It would seem that you have lived in Moscow all your life, there was Moscow studies at school, but it turns out that you still don’t know so much!! In general, thank you very much, my mother said it was the best gift for her birthday!
Note: this is about the excursion “Soul of Moscow“
