Moscow, Russia - 20th March 2010

By: TaisAfinskaia

Hello Kyoko!
Today was the shopping day! We visited two biggest shopping-centers in Moscow: "European" (the first photo) and ib GUM wich is situated on Red Square where I`ve already been.

Quote:

Main Department Store or GUM (pronounced as goom, in full Glavnyi Universalnyi Magazin) is a modern name for the main department store in many cities of the former Soviet Union, known as State Department Store, Gosudarstvennyi Universalnyi Magazin) in the Soviet times. Similar-named stores were in the some Soviet republics and post-Soviet states. The most famous GUM is a large store in Kitai-gorod of Moscow, facing Red Square. It is actually a shopping mall. Prior to the 1920s the place was known as the Upper Trading Rows.

Yours,
kikuchan.
