Moscow Guide
Arrival
Arriving by air, there's a big difference between getting into town from Moscow's two main airports. While a shuttle train whisks you into the centre from Domodedovo, getting in from Sheremetevo means at least an hour on the traffic-choked Leningrad highway, passing a monument in the form of giant anti-tank obstacles that marks the nearest that the Nazis got in 1941. Arriving by train at one of the city's main-line stations, you'll be pitched straight into street life at its rawest, and the Moscow metro. Relatively few tourists arrive by bus or boat.
