Moscow is the capital of Russia, its largest city and the political, business and cultural centre. The capital’s focus is Red Square and the Kremlin and this area still emits a strong Cold War atmosphere. There are a wide variety of venues in the city for all sizes of conferences and exhibitions from 5* hotels to congress centres. Business events can be combined with a visit to St Basil's Cathedral, Lenin’s Mausoleum, the Kremlin or a show at the Bolshoi theatre. Sheremetyevo International Airport is 16 miles north west of the city centre.
