I plan to be a regular guest Do you have favorite parks in Moscow? My choice is banal-poppin Gorky Park. Everything is there for people, for all occasions, tastes and moods. A million leisure options. And now one more. Not a hackneyed, exotic, straight new experience, exciting and memorable. I didn’t know anything about # atmasfera360. He lurked right next to the summer theater of Stas Namin (if you go from the main entrance to the park and go a little further, 50 meters, along the promenade). So while walking, do not pass by. It’s interesting there. The events organized by the guys are piece-exclusive, so you need to follow the poster so as not to miss. Many people heard and saw about the SAMSKARA project in ARTPLAY, and so this # ATMA360 is their work. Enough has I cast a shadow on the fence? )) Now there will be details of my journey with one yogi through the mystical universe. In order, the spherical cinema itself is a great attraction. I'm serious. I was rocked in places, as on a roller coaster and no less breathtaking. This is an interesting bodily experience. And once again she was convinced that the brain is not difficult to deceive, he himself is glad to be deceived. “You will not see the most important thing with your eyes, only one heart is vigilant.” This is the motto of my stage in life, and everything around him responds. So the film was not accidental. The creators (Igor Baranko - an animation artist and producer - George Aistov) swung at the visualization of the entire world order in the concept of Hinduism. I’ve heard about 6 worlds before, and in the animated film there are much more of them and not even all of them are included in it. Because the film suddenly breaks off at the 26th minute and at the most interesting place ... For to be continued .. in a year and a half) Great intrigue. For the uninitiated in the subject of Vedic culture, the content is difficult for perception, there each of the concepts indicated in the forwarding deserves a separate “cartoon” - karma, dharma, moksha, maya, Sansara, but I’m generally silent about the gods. But what a field for the artist’s imagination. This is not even the fantasy worlds of Tolkien. There can be anything and anything on those worlds, and this journey is a cool experience. The Spherical Cinema, 550 m2 Screen, a unique development of Fulldome.pro, surrounds the audience from all sides. Ultimate 4K image quality outperforms FullHD, as well as the technical capabilities of conventional modern movie theaters. Comfortable chairs are chaise lounges in which it is convenient to lie and watch what is happening and not to see any of the spectators. Cool sound and a journey into colorful worlds, beautiful and scary, sometimes at extreme speeds with the effect of presence and immersion. And although the chair does not rotate under you, there are enough impressions for yourself. I periodically closed my eyes and looked under my feet, returning myself to reality. And I also love all kinds of word and letter games, and here is the word atmosphere - I really, really like it. Atma - this is in Sanskrit - soul, spirit, self, real “I”, if very simplified. So atmAsphere in this place is really emotional and conducive to discoveries. Screenings of films are accompanied by interesting lectures, talks, and even refreshments - it seems they were fret (sweet coconut balls) and delicious tea, and at the entrance there is a sandalwood aroma of incense. It’s cool when all the senses are acted upon to make the effect stronger! I missed Tango events to the accompaniment of “Tango and Jazz” under 360 video projection. Does that sound great?

Gorky Park is famous for many things, not many of them good. For Muscovites, their city's biggest green space used to be known as a place of regimented Soviet-era fun, full of strolling proletarian families eating cheap ice cream to the sound of military bands. To foreigners, it was the venue (and title) of Martin Cruz Smith's 1981 novel of faceless corpses and cutthroat Soviet black marketeering. And then of course there was that Scorpions song—"follow the Moskva, down to Gorky Park, listening to the wind, of chaaaaange," etc. To me, it was mostly famous as a place to avoid. As a young reporter for The Moscow Times back in the mid-1990s, I'd nearly been beaten up there by drunken paratroopers. Gorky Park was where poor Muscovites would take cheap dates—a wilderness of garish carnival rides, loud pop music, and overpriced kebabs. Moscow's Night Wolves biker gang, the local answer to the Hell's Angels, had their lair in the park's depths. And you had to pay to go in, despite it being one of the few large public spaces in the capital. But this summer the "wind of change" has again come to Gorky Park. In place of cheesy funfairs, drunken soldiers, and an apocalyptic wasteland of post-Soviet broken concrete, the park is now full of free-Wi-Fi-using, bicycling, nonalcoholic-mojito-sipping young things catching the late-summer rays. The health-and-safety-defying carnival rides are gone, replaced by rose gardens and fountains (they had actually been there all along, it turned out, but the rides had been built over them.) The lawns are strewn with giant beanbags designed for lounging on with a laptop, and in place of the '90s-era prefab booths, the management has put up wooden reproductions of the original 1930s Constructivist-style kiosks selling juices and sandwiches, but no vodka. The banks of the Moscow River, which runs for three miles along one side of Gorky Park, has an urban beach modeled on Paris's Seine-side plages. A couple of adventurous Frenchwomen have even set up an open-air pétanque alley. Hence my amazement at the new Gorky Park, brainchild of current Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin and his appointee as the park's new director, Sergei Kapkov. Instead of turning the park into a patchwork of fenced-off, money-spinning elitny preserves, Kapkov has created a truly great public space with no other ambition but to improve the quality of life of regular Muscovites. Of course, this comes with a bit of a caveat: the only people who can afford to forbear making a fast buck are those who've made a few fast bucks already. In this case, the godfather of Gorky is oil billionaire Roman Abramovich. Kapkov is a close ally (he served as a member of Parliament for the Arctic region of Chukotka while Abramovich was governor). And Abramovich's girlfriend, Dasha Zhukova, plans to open a world-class contemporary-arts center in a historic exhibition hall in Gorky Park next year.

A must see during any trip to Russia’s capital. There are endless walk ways and thorough fares in which to take in a relaxing walk. Cafe’s and restaurants too. Walking beside the Moskva in the evening is a real sight. I would particularly recommend a visit during winter months, as large sections of the parks walk ways are converted into an ice rink. It’s pretty good value for money and that includes skate rental unless you have your own (as many Russians do naturally!). It really cannot be overlooked as I was apprehensive, as I’m a rubbish skater, but once you’ve paid you can stay as long as you like! There are outside food stalls around the park too which you can only get to once on the rink (they put rubber flooring down so you can stay in skates). All round amazing and one of my best memories here!

Review of Gorky Park... Stretching along the Moscow River as a wide green strip, Gorky Park, which includes Muzeon and the Vorobyovy Gory Nature Reserve, This is a key object for the public life of Russia and the Moscow ecosystem! A place for events and relaxation, the center of an abundance of fauna and flora. Before the revolution - the Imperial Park, intended for august persons, The First All-Russian Agricultural Exhibition was held here in 1923. Since 1928 - a Park of Culture and Recreation, accessible to all poor people from the slums, It quickly became one of the best among its analogues in the world. Nowadays there is a year-round stream of events in Gorky Park! In the summer – Days of the City, Youth, Graduates, VK-fest... In winter - Skating rink, New Year's festivities - Super!!! Without prejudice! Gorky Park is one of Muscovites' favorite places to relax! Respect to all the Park staff, but special thanks to the security guards of CHOP STARK! In rain, snow and cold, soldiers provide public order protection around the clock! Safety comes first - this is especially important now and is by no means pompous, I recommend! Come yourself, invite your friends, guests are valued and welcome here! Отзыв о Парке Горького… Раскинувшись вдоль Москвы-реки широкой зелёной полосой, Парк Горького, включающий в себя и Музеон, и заповедник Воробьёвы горы, Для общественной жизни России и экосистемы Москвы объект ключевой! Место для мероприятий и отдыха, средоточие обилия фауны и флоры. До революции – Императорский парк, предназначенный для августейших особ, Здесь была проведена Первая Всероссийская сельскохозвыставка в 1923 году. С 1928 года – Парк Культуры и Отдыха, доступный всем нищебродам с трущоб, Быстро ставшим одним из лучших средь аналогов в мировом ряду. Ныне в Парке Горького - круглогодично поток мероприятий! Летом – Дни Города, Молодёжи, Выпускника, VK-фест… Зимой – Каток, Новогодние народные гуляния – Супер!!! Без предвзятей! Парк Горького - одно из самых любимых у москвичей для отдыха мест! Всему персоналу Парка - респект, но охранникам ЧОП СТАРК - особая благодарность! В дождь, снег и стужу, бойцы круглосуточно службу по охране общественного порядка несут! Безопасность превыше всего – сейчас это особо актуально и, отнюдь, не высокопарно, Рекомендую! Приходите сами, приглашайте друзей, гостей Вас здесь ценят и ждут!

Gorky Park is my favorite place to go in Moscow on a summer evening. It's so full of life. You can find people all around involved in so many activities here. There is various rental shops which can lend you skates, bikes, scooters and so much more. Also there are play areas for beach volleyball, basketball etc. The park is spotted by cafes of numerous cuisines you would find something to your liking. There are fountains, ponds and the best part is the Moskva River that flows beside the park. There is a riverside cycling/jogging track which extends for over 5kms definitely and is a haven for fitness, leisure enthusiasts. Gorky park being a cultural center is also a pier for River Boat cruise of which Raddisson one's are the best in service and value.
