Exploring Arbat Street: The Heart of Moscow
Arbat Street, or simply Arbat, is a pedestrian street in the historical center of Moscow. Stretching over a kilometer, it has been a significant part of Moscow's cultural and social life for centuries. This street has witnessed countless historical events, hosted numerous artists, poets, and musicians, and continues to be a lively hub for both locals and tourists.
A Walk Through History
Arbat Street dates back to at least the 15th century, making it one of Moscow’s oldest streets. Historically, it was a bustling trade route connecting the Kremlin with the western parts of the city. The name "Arbat" is believed to have originated from the Arabic word "arbad," meaning "suburb" or "outskirts," indicating its location relative to the city center in ancient times.
Throughout its history, Arbat has been home to many prominent figures, including writers, artists, and intellectuals. One of the most famous residents was the renowned Russian poet Alexander Pushkin, who lived at No. 53 with his wife, Natalia Goncharova, shortly after their marriage. Today, the Pushkin House Museum stands as a tribute to his legacy and offers a glimpse into the poet’s life.
Cultural Hub and Artistic Vibes
As we stroll down Arbat Street, you'll notice a vibrant atmosphere filled with street performers, artists, and musicians. This street has long been a haven for creative minds, and its bohemian spirit is still very much alive. The lively ambiance is complemented by numerous cafes, restaurants, and shops selling everything from traditional Russian crafts to modern art pieces.
One of the highlights of Arbat Street is the abundance of street art and sculptures. Keep an eye out for the whimsical bronze statues, including the one of Bulat Okudzhava, a beloved Soviet poet and songwriter, who often performed on this street. These artistic elements add a unique charm to Arbat, making every step an opportunity to discover something new.
Architectural Marvels
Arbat Street is not just about art and culture; it's also a showcase of stunning architecture. As you explore, you’ll encounter buildings from various periods, each telling its own story. The street is lined with beautiful examples of Russian Revival, Art Nouveau, and Neoclassical architecture. One notable building is the Vakhtangov Theatre, a renowned venue that has hosted countless performances and remains a cornerstone of Moscow’s theatrical scene.
Local Delights and Souvenirs
No visit to Arbat Street would be complete without indulging in some local delights. The street is dotted with cafes and restaurants offering a taste of traditional Russian cuisine. Whether you're craving borscht, pelmeni, or a slice of medovik cake, Arbat has something to satisfy every palate.
For those looking to take a piece of Moscow home, Arbat Street is a shopper's paradise. From matryoshka dolls and samovars to contemporary art and handmade jewelry, the variety of souvenirs available here is astonishing. Be sure to visit the Arbat Twin Houses, where you can find unique gifts and mementos to remember your trip.

8:32 Ресторан "Генацвале" на Арбате (translates from Gorgian as"Comrade" or Dear Friend") Gorgian cuisine. The building that impressed you is an imitation of typical Gorgian yards architecture with houses, balconies, terraces covered with grape vines climbing up the mountains. [Google "дворики Тбилиси" for yourself & see the similarities] This one in Arbat particular might be costly due to prime center location, but like with chebureki you can try delicious Georgian cuisine in many other parts of Moscow at less cost for the same value. Although nice interior/exterior can also be considered a value of fine dining. Tip: between 12-16 pm they have happy hours = -20% off the main menu (that does not include alcohol), so you can have lunch there, enjoy the food & atmosphere but still keep it on the budget. 😗There is a saying that "Gorgian breakfast is excellent in many ways with the only flaw: on the third day you begin feeling hungry again. 😅
History, as a statement of events, is not truth. History always carries ideological overtones. History tries to form a certain view of events and give meaning to what is happening.
Residents of one country are brought up on traditions, on the historical memory of their ancestors. Therefore, we expect a predictable reaction from our compatriots in any situation. Therefore, people are wary of foreigners; they don’t know what to expect from them.
It’s not difficult to notice that if someone wants to seize power, introduce their own laws, or simply destroy the state (for example, in favor of corporations), then the first thing they start with is a war with history.
They need to divide and oppose people. It doesn’t matter here: historical views, racism, LGBT, etc., etc. This biomass, devoid of foundations, can be easily controlled by inventing “democratic” laws.
На одном Арбате больше театров, чем во всей Европе вместе взятой. Спасибо за видео, здоровья и удачи.
Thank you so much! Yes i feel I only explored such a small part of it.
Definitely need to return!
Arbat street is created as main street by foreigners themselves, there are a lot of streets in Moscow that are the way better than Arbat, both in terms of historical architecture and restaurants/bars. Ostozhenka, Pyatnitskaya, Nikolskaya, Kamergerskiy Pereulok, Kuznetskiy most, Neglinnaya, Bolshaya Nikitskaya, Malaya Bronnaya, Bulvarnoye koltso (Boulevard ring) etc.
Ни одно дерево не растет без корней,и не принесет плодов Вот что для нас наша история
After watching a few of your videos, it seems that the average person on the street is actually very intelligent. You can tell it is so enriched in culture and art.
What is the restaurant called with the chebureki??
Yeah That's a good observation, to be honest it's something I consistently see in my time here. People are drawn to philosophy and art and history, the avarage person can have a very in depth discussion with you about a range of topics, at least in the experiences I have had!
Regarding the food, the big plate ones were in Yevgenich bar.
Когда очень-очень давно я ходил в детсад на Арбате.И да, там жили совсем не мажорные москвичи :)
@@user-cd3jo3kh1j как обычно))) приходит эбрейскийпоц и оставляет кучугумна😆
там были квартиры ведомственные от обхсс москвы, я в такой в начале 90х мелким жил, потом нас от туда вежливо попросили съехать, видать кто-то приватизировал 😁
ahaha has it changed now? i found everyone here fairly nice.
улицы Петровка, Рождественка, Мясницкая, Ильинка и т.д. Много исторических красивых улиц. Вы сами ( иностранные туристы) придумали эту легенду насчет Арбата.
Sounds like I need to make 5 more videos 😅. Hope you enjoyed this one though?
We did, but she is right. Arbat is NOT the best street in Moscow and there are lots of better and cheaper restaurants in other streets.@@Indulgeandpair
А если пройтись по Москве Гиляровского из книги "Москва и москвичи" или Москве Булгакова - вообще может снести крышу от впечатлений 😖
@@Dixis А он не читал. Меня повазил тот факт, что англоязычные не читают свою великую литературу, за которую мы их и любили! СОВСЕМ! Что уж говорить про русскую!
@@user-sf3fe4bh2q есть такое. Замечал, что знаю лучше англоязычную литературу, чем 95% моих собеседников в интернете. Склоняюсь к тому, что у них просто не хватает времени, чтобы читать из-за бешеной занятости различными работами.
Песенка об Арбате
Ты течёшь как река странное название
И прозрачен асфальт как в реке вода
Ах Арбат мой Арбат ты моё призвание
Ты и радость моя и моя беда
Ах Арбат мой Арбат ты моё призвание
Ты и радость моя и моя беда
Пешеходы твои люди невеликие
Каблуками стучат по делам спешат
Ах Арбат мой Арбат ты моя религия
Мостовые твои подо мной лежат
Ах Арбат мой Арбат ты моя религия
Мостовые твои подо мной лежат
От любови твоей вовсе не излечишься
Сорок тысяч других мостовых любя
Ах Арбат мой Арбат ты моё отечество
Никогда до конца не пройти тебя
Ах Арбат мой Арбат ты моё отечество
Никогда до конца не пройти тебя Б.Акуджава.
omg i wish i knew about this before i made this video, it would have been beautiful to add in!
Aussie, really? But I can understand 100% of what you say)
История нужна, история важна... Уроки истории нужно учить и почетать
very well said, my teacher said, all the people that should be leading are teaching history, Russia is blessed to have someone who decided to lead while knowing history.
Привет из Красноярска
hallo my friend!
У меня сотрудник на работе, американец Алекс, с братом общался, тот его спрашивает, как ты там, не голодаешь, Россия ти по нищая страна, там нечего есть наверное.. люди бедные. На что, Алекс задал вопрос, Питэр, ты можешь купить мне билет, я хочу вернуться в Америку.. Тот, давай ломаться.. ти по Алекс, ты же знаешь, что у меня кредит за дом, и два ребенка. На что, Алекс ему ответил, а я могу купить тебе билет и твоей жене.. приезжайте.. посмотрите на Россию. В итоге, те ломались полгода.. приехали.. "Охренели"! Вернулись в Америку, продали все имущество, и с детьми переехали жить в Россию. (теперь у меня на работе два американца, Алекс и его брат Питэр)
ahaha thats an awesome story, once people come here they just simply fall in love with it. If they dont its okay then they already found their home. I am happy though when people give Russia a chance and see it for themselves
@@sozi-datel 🙏🤣 absolutely hillarious! Is this in Moscow or .. ? Just wonder what city that may be?
@@svtccvsесли Арбат, то Москва, конечно. В Санкт-Петербурге это будет Невский проспект, в Екатеринбурге улица Вайнера, в каждом городе есть пешеходная туристическая улица.
К нам тоже из Германии приехала семья
🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤
How expensive are the restaurants there?
They range in prices from the fine dining to bar style. I visited both, compared to Western fine dinning it's significantly cheaper. For example a plate of food which would cost $80 would cost $30ish (high end ) bar foods are even cheaper, that big chiburek was about $5AUD
Цой легенда
they are all legends
compare them against a sausage roll for us Aussies
Great video mate would love to do a colab sometime
my brrooo would be awesome, can you shoot me your telegram (vlad@indulgeandpair.com) lets line it up!
@@Indulgeandpair cheers mate sent you an email)
Про "всадника" Пушкина несколько удивило. Про его кавалерийские подвиги не слышал ни разу. Нужно будет почитать.
Пушкин А.С. - автор поэмы "Медный всадник". Дорогой соотечественник, не позорьте нас - школьная программа 😅,🤗
I think there may have been some miss translation here. Please let me know what part you are referring to and hopefully I can help ❤
As for us , Russians, we have already passed the crossroads, and we are moving strait now to perfect human kind!
