Moscow, a city where the past and present are intertwined in patterns of stories and legends, breathed the coolness of an autumn morning that day. Patriarch's Ponds reflected the grey sky in their waters, like old engravings, in which the events of past eras came to life. Here, in the silence, broken only by the rare steps of passers-by, one could feel the breath of history.
It was here, among the quiet alleys and benches, that one Moscow writer sought inspiration for his new novel. He was interested not only in architectural delights or secluded corners, but also in the secrets hidden in the history of the city. Inspired by the legends of Masons of Moscow, he looked for traces of their presence, hoping to find plots for his works in this mysterious brotherhood.
But fate had something more in store for him. On that day, when the air was filled with the scent of withering leaves, he noticed a woman on one of the benches. Her gaze was fixed on the water, where the leaves swirled in the dance of autumn. Her face resembled images from paintings, where every feature carried a secret and a promise.
The writer could not tear his eyes away from this stranger. Her appearance, as if from another era, attracted and beckoned. He remembered love stories, about those feelings that seemed to have been forgotten in his life. He felt his heart begin to beat faster, as if in time with the music that invisible musicians were playing for him.
Several days passed, and he spent each of them on Patriarch's Ponds, hoping to see her again. But each time the bench remained empty, and only the wind whispered to him that he was late. But one day, when dusk had already fallen, he saw her again. This time she came closer, and he managed to see the ring on her hand. The symbols on it spoke of belonging to those he was looking for - the Freemasons.
This meeting turned his world upside down. He realized that there was more to her eyes than just a secret of the past. It was a story of love that crossed centuries and spaces, linking them into one. She disappeared as suddenly as she had appeared, leaving him with questions and hope.
Back home, he began writing a novel inspired by that encounter. Every line was filled with the feelings he had experienced and the dreams of their paths crossing again. He knew that his books would now be about more than just stories – they would be about love that transcends time and space.

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!

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«
I will definitely recommend this company to my friends and we will use its services ourselves.
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.
