The year as part of a section of the Sokolnic Line "Sportivnoye" - "University", after commissioning of which 55 stations became commissioned in the Moscow metro. To reduce the cost of construction, a unique project of the Metro line of the metro line was used, instead of the previously proposed plane of the tunnel under Moscow-River. The station was located in the Lower Yarusa Luzhnetsky metro station (built in the year), while at its upper tier was carried out by car traffic. At the time of opening a station, a length of 282 meters and a width of 17.6 meters was the widest and extended in the Moscow Metropolitan. The design of the station was simple, largely similarly open at the same time ground stations of the phileus line: asphalt floor, poles instead of columns, simple ceiling lamps instead of chandeliers, and the main accent was the wave-like overlap of the Middle Nafa. The construction was carried out with a lead, which led to a number of errors in design. To save metal and reduce noise, metal supports were replaced by reinforced concrete, and to prevent the pouring of concrete when working during the winter months, sodium nitrate (salt) was added to the mixture, provoked by metal corrosion. Rusty, the reinforcement increased in the volume, creating internal pressure in the stoves, which destroyed them and disrupted waterproofing. Already on July 8, 1959, due to strong shower, the water was mixed with mud flowed into the lobby and trains. In June of the year, the perileous sheets of the eaves began to be launched from the 4-meter height. Over time, the bridge lost 60% of the supporting ability, after the start of the destruction of concrete floors 20 (according to other data on 25), October 1983, the station was closed for passengers, from the year of the train were sent for individual bridges on their own supports, built on both sides of the main, and car traffic Upper tier was discontinued later due to the lack of an equivalent tram line.

Reconstruction

The active phase of the station reconstruction fell on - years - the construction period of the Third Transport Ring, when Berezhkovsky Bridge was erected, and thus the possibility of a detour. Thus, the recovery took 19 years. In the summer of the year, the movement of trains along the bridge was limited. From July 6 to August 5, the section "Sports" - "South-Western" was completely closed. During this time, the designs of bypass bridges were supplied to the main platform of the station, the paths were transferred and the station was glazed

Panorama of Moscow

The observation deck of sparrow mountains is considered to be the main observation platform of Moscow: this is the only publicly available place from which you can really penetrate the scale of the city.

Due to the successful location in the center of Moscow, it can boast the widest and diverse panorama of the capital: no other observation deck Does not have any number of visible attractions.

Panorama of Moscow with Sparrow Mountains, September 2018

From here it is seen almost all the sign skyscrapers of the capital, 6 out of 7 Stalin's heights (including the building of Moscow State University behind the site), a number of architectural attractions in the central part of the city (and even the Kremlin!), As well as the embankments of the Moscow River. And if you look at the construction cranes on the horizon, then you can even look into the future of Moscow and assume how urban landscape will change in the future. The panorama of the city is changing rapidly, and in a few years it will noticeably differ from what can be seen today (as well as today's panorama is different from the one that was a few years ago).

The look at the same time is very dynamic: if you look at, you can see how cars go through the third vehicle ring and bright red trains "Swallow" on MCC.

And to admire the view of Moscow from the sparrow mountains, there was even more interesting, there are free viewing binoculars on the site, thanks to which some buildings can be considered literally in detail.

Exactly opposite the observation deck - a noticeable round construction, a large sports arena "Luzhniki". The Olympic stadium opened in 1956 is very convenient to use as a starting point when viewing views of the city.

Left from "Luzhniki"

In the leftmost point of the "Luzhniki", the eyes are found with the views of modern Moscow and the highest Moscow skyscrapers :, Mirax Plaza's business center, as well as residential complexes and "Beachovaya House". Well visible on the Krasnopresnenskaya Embankment and Business Center "Nordstar Tower" on a running street.

A little right -, unexpectedly adjacent with the Ostankino television bosses and pipes of the CHP-12, ("White House") and. In addition to the hotel "Ukraine", the left of "Luzhniki" is seen two more Stalin's heights: and. The view of the highlight of the Foreign Ministry is impressive: hence it looks like a giant rock, towering over the city. Between Stalinsky highways lined up in a number of houses-books on, and in front of them - the Novodevichy Monastery and various residential buildings.

If you look at a little more careful, you can also see the 165-meter skyscraper, the silhouette of which tourists are sometimes confused with Stalinist heights.

It is clearly seen by the Sparrow and Luzhnets embankments of the Moscow River, as well as Berezhkovsky Bridge, connecting Novodevich the embankment with Berezhkovskaya, and Luzhnetsky railway bridge.

Center - "Luzhniki"

Olympic Sport Complex "Luzhniki" - undoubted dominant of local species: Located exactly opposite the observation deck, a large sports are not impossible to confuse with something or not to see.

Behind the dome of the Arena, a number of iconic Moscow sights are visible and simply the notable towns: the temple of Vasily of the Blessed and Bell Tower of the Kremlin Cathedrals, the Cechenov MP Corps, the Stalinist Higgling at the Red Gate and Giant ("to commemorate the 300th anniversary of the Russian Fleet") of the work of Zurab Tsereteli. Especially the eye clings for a monument to Peter I is the highest monument in Russia and one of the highest in the world, its height is 98 meters.

Another curious detail became cable carStretching between Sparrow Mountains and Luzhniki over Moscow-River: From the observation deck, its stations are visible and moving over the water of the cabin.

To the right of "Luzhniki"

On the right side of the panorama you can see another Stalinist high-speed -. Not far from the highlight - the hotel building "Swissotel Red Hills", notes for the design of its upper part: a flying saucer is parked on the roof. The Shukhovskaya Radiobashnya is a mansion (Shabolovskaya Tower): a unique hyperboloid facility looks like a green array. Ereated in 1920-1922 design - a recognized masterpiece of engineering thought, not inferior at all Eiffel Tower in Paris.

The right of the other notable objects is the 22-storey building of the Presidium of the Russian Academy of Sciences, open in the early 1990s. The building of the Russian Academy of Sciences had to make Muscovites: for unusual architectural forms on the roof it was painted with "golden brains" and immediately made many fantastic stories about their appointment - they say, these are antennas for communication with extraterrestrial intelligence. "Golden brains" became one of the urban mysteries - it is possible that it is for this building Muscovites and loved.

Before the building of the Presidium of the Russian Academy of Sciences, you can see a unique structure - a 2-level Luzhnetsky metro station, peroxide over Moscow River between Luzhnetskaya and Vorobyevskaya / Andreevskaya embankments. The Lenin Mountain Metro Station is located on the lower tier (Lenin Mountains) - the world's first metro station, located above the river: It was opened in 1959. The top tier of the bridge is given to cars - it passes a lively highway. In addition, on both sides of the bridge there are open pedestrian crossings for which you can cross the Moscow river without going to the station.

History of the observation site

The observation deck is equipped simultaneously with the construction of the Moscow State University complex in 1949-1953.

The seat itself was dictated by the relief itself: Sparrow Mountains - the high right bank of the Moscow River, a steep cluster of the heat station, washed into the flow. The construction of the cliff was unsafe due to the danger of a landslide: initially the main building of Moscow State University wanted to build closer to the river, but it turned out to be impossible. The highlight was built away from the cliff, and at its edge there was an observation platform. From the moment of arrangement, the observation deck has changed little: these days there were observation binoculars, and the highlighted scheme of Moscow was built into the paving, it remained the same for the rest.

Different organizations have repeatedly arose plans for the construction or installation of monuments on the observation platform of sparrow mountains (in particular, the city authorities considered the opportunity to establish here), but none of them, fortunately, did not come true.

According to urban legends, in the past, Vorobyeva Mountains more than once became an overview platform for conquerors: they say, from here during their campaigns they looked at Moscow Crimean Khan Kaza Gary II (Gaza II Gerai) and Lithuanian Gaetman Khodkevich.

How to get

Getting to the observation deck on the sparrow mountains can be on foot from the metro station "Sparrow Hills" Sokolnichesky line, it is located on Kosygin Street in the University Square area.

However, the path from the subway is not so obvious: to go from the station to the site, you need to get out of the lobby in the direction of Kosygin Street, then go under the bridge to the end of the alley under it and minimize the right - there on the slope of Sparrow Mountains rises the equipped trail with steps and log Parapet. The trail goes back to Kosygin Street, where there are pointers towards the site (one of them is located just at the end of the trail).

Trail to the observation deck of sparrows mountains

The observation deck on the sparrow mountains is available around the clock and for free.

To Sparrow Mountains. Unfortunately, you are unlikely to get to the very observation deck, since I recently had the passage of personal vehicles on Kosygin leading to the highest point. The movement is closed and on the site of Andreevskaya Embankment, with which it was previously possible to easily drive into the platform. So you have to walk a little after traveling on a taxi.

Sit down on the subway and travel to the "Okhotny Ryad" station. Near this station is Red Square and Gum, from the parking lot near which they are constantly recovering excursion buses. The program of almost all excursions includes visits to the observation deck, which you will also have to walk a little, enjoying the cleanest air in the capital. Similar excursions are organized from other central regions of Moscow (for example, from Calanechevskaya Square, the so-called "area of \u200b\u200bthree stations", Metro Station Komsomolskaya).

Go down to the subway to the train to the station "Vorobyev Mountains." You will also have to go a little bit, and in the mountain, but a wonderful look, opening from the site, literally soaring over the city, is worth it.

If you feel cheerful and full forces, then you can climb the observation platform directly from the Moscow River, from the embankment or pier river transport. Ride by river tram It is quite inexpensive, and, in addition, you can enjoy while traveling with remarkable views of the capital, opening from the board of the ship. Go out on the moor you need and start the rise: first on the steps, and then - along the paths, however, quite well-kept. If you decide that you cannot conquer the sparrow mountains on your two, ride on the funicular right to the observation deck.

Take advantage of land types of public transport to get to Sparrow Mountains. So, from the metro station "University" to Sparrow Mountains can be reached by bus №661 (stop "DC MSU"). In addition, you can use the following public transport routes:
