Moscow, Russia's capital and largest city, was first mentioned in chronicles in 1147. Founded by Prince Yuri Dolgoruky, it grew from a small fortress on the Moskva River into one of the world's greatest metropolises. The city served as the capital of the Grand Duchy of Moscow, the Tsardom of Russia, and after 1918, the Soviet Union. Today, Moscow is a vibrant global city blending 900 years of history with cutting-edge modernity — from the medieval Kremlin walls to the futuristic Moscow City skyscrapers.
