Leave Red Square through the Resurrection Gates to Revolution Square. Zip down the escalator at the Ploshchad Revolutsii metro station, which has some of the best and kitschest sculptures of armed workers and peasants.

End your metro tour at the Tsvetnoy bulvar station. Wander around the upscale farmers market on the fifth floor of the Tsvetnoy shopping centre (Tsvetnoy bulvar 15, str.1), sampling homemade cheeses, honey, sausages, smoked fish and other delicacies.

Steam city grit and tension away in a relaxing session at the Sandunovsky Baths (Neglinnaya 14, str. 4), a short walk from the Tsvetnoy Market.
