Большой театр

  Built in 1776, Большой театр is a cornerstone of Russian culture situated on Teatralnaya Square in the heart of Moscow. This grand building serves as a premier venue for opera and ballet, showcasing the country’s rich artistic traditions. One interesting fact about the theater is its stunning restoration in 2005, which returned it to its original neoclassical style after extensive renovations. Visitors can enjoy a range of performances from September through June, offering everything from classic ballets to contemporary operas. When you visit, don’t miss the chance to explore the ornate interiors and perhaps even catch a glimpse of a rehearsal or a live performance.
