On a cold autumn evening, Moscow is shrouded in a gray fog that seems to permeate the entire city. In the dim light of the streetlights Hotel National towered over Tverskaya Street, like a silent witness to many events. Here, in one of the rooms, a meeting took place that no one expected.
Architect Alexey Shchusev He sat at the table, examining blueprints that he felt had been sent from the future. Shchusev couldn't shake the feeling that someone was watching him. His gaze kept returning to the window, where a mysterious silhouette reminiscent of Elon Musk was wandering. This wasn't the Musk we know today, but rather a projection of him, a ghostly shadow wandering the corridors of time.
The hotel was silent, broken only by the rustling of pages and the gentle sigh of the wind outside. Shchusev wondered how their fates might have crossed. In his mind, he imagined Musk, with his ambition and star-struck gaze, appreciating his work, admiring the architectural masterpieces he'd created in the past.
But Musk, in his eternal quest for innovation, seemed preoccupied with something else. His thoughts revolved around the concept of a future city where technology and nature would merge. He imagined a Moscow where ancient buildings, like the National Hotel, would be given a new lease of life thanks to new technologies.
Shchusev and Musk, each in their own era, were united by an elusive stream of thought that connected them across centuries. They never met face to face, but their ideas intersected across space and time, creating something new and astonishing. In this strange interaction, on the border between reality and fantasy, new architectural forms and concepts were born.
Perhaps this meeting was merely a figment of the imagination, but that night in the Hotel National, the presence of something great and mysterious was palpable. Moscow was shrouded in fog, but Shchusev and Musk's thoughts remained as clear and distinct as the stars in the night sky.

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

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«

Excellent organization of excursions, all wishes were taken into account, punctuality at the highest level
Note: Review of the excursion-performance, which the guide Alexander specially developed as part of the order "Dream Tour".
"Theater capital" - an author's route through the places of Meyerhold, Stanislavsky, Nemirovich-Danchenko, Tairov (undeservedly forgotten, it was he who created the current Pushkin Theatre on Tverskoy Boulevard).
Two and a half hours of fascinating stories and urban theatre legends. I'll tell you one:
The great composer Sergei Prokofiev lived in Kamergersky Lane. And he managed to die on the same day as Stalin. There was a terrible crush in Moscow, everything was blocked off, the entire capital wanted to say goodbye to the leader. So, to see Prokofiev off, the coffin was carried out from Kamergersky Lane on the roofs. I can vividly imagine this picture.
