Architectural Model of Moscow
A few days ago I have visited the Pavilion of the Architectural Model of Moscow , located at VDNH . This pavilion can be visited absolutely free of charge - admission is free. The model has 368 square meters area, is a model of the city center, inside the Garden Ring and partly beyond, which includes more than 20 thousand buildings and structures in 1:400 scale, created with absolute precision. The model is curious for its realism: in due time, the Spassky Tower beats chimes, all bas-reliefs on buildings are recreated with precision. All models of buildings are placed on a real urban basis: each hill or lowland in the city is displayed on the model. The model is equipped with an interactive hi-end system for building's illumination from the inside, which can be controlled by selecting objects in accordance with the scenario. The system has a smart controller with a touchscreen display, every visitor can set different times of day on the model and highlight related objects,
