View from Moscow-River on the main sport stadium in Moscow "Luzhniki"
Luzhniki is considered as the main and biggest sport stadium in Russia. 100-thousand-seat stadium was opened on July 31, 1956 as the Central V.I.Lenin Stadium. In 2001 it was erected a unique removable roof over the Large Sports Arena, which can cover the whole stadium within one hour. The Arena was reconstructed too.

As part of background research for a new novel, I needed someone to take me around to the sites in Moscow where some of the events in the story takes Place.
Arthur proved an excellent choice. Nor only does he know his way around Moscow, he also willingly shares his vast knowledge of the city's past. Furtheremore, Arthus is a very nice guy to spend a day with!
