Arkhangelskoe Estate

TIME : 2016/2/19

In the 1780s the wealthy Prince Nikolai Yusupov purchased this grand palace on the outskirts of Moscow, and turned it into a spectacular estate. Now his palace displays the paintings, furniture, sculptures, glass, tapestries and porcelain that Yusupov accumulated over the years. In summer, the estate is the exquisite setting for a popular Usadba Jazz Festival in June.

From Tushinskaya metro, take bus 541 or 549 or marshrutka (fixed-route minibus) 151 to Arkhangelskoe (30 minutes).
