The Sadovoe (Garden) and Bulvarnoe (Boulevard) rings seem to be so integral elements of Moscow's urban planning that similar planning decisions in other capital cities - for example, the Vienna ring - are involuntarily compared to them. But the Sadovoe ring is too long and therefore serves as the main transport artery in the city center, but the Boulevard ring is much shorter and you can walk along it.

Almost quiet place in center but traffic time. You can see Moscow architecture of some last centuries. There is a lot of cafe. Photo and art exhibitions are held in opposite ends of it (Gogolevskiy and Chistoprudniy blvds) in a summertime.
