VDNH (All Union Exhibition of People's Economic Achievements) is a Moscow terrain which is very big and shows in pavillons, comparable to 'world exhibitions', the economic achievements of the soviet-russian people and regions. nowadays used as a recreational area by tons of rollerbladers, bmx and freeriders and the usual families-with-kids. lots of the old communist glory there is in decay, but a decay which borders to sheer beauty. this one attracted my special attention today, cause the entire pavillon had an unseen ,timeless 'something'. Modernist minimalism, only interrupted by the text on the facade, attached just perfectly to the building, in the correct font. When visiting Moscow, this is a tip. And do not forget the outside area's of the terrain, and not just the main street. The terrain also has a (real) spacerocket (which is on a launch system, still hanging like as if it could be lifting off every second), an old cccp-aeroflot plane, and majestic buildings all over the place. Taste the Kvas and some kefir- like covered freshmade pancakes and end in the outside area with some grilled meat on a stick preferably next to a lake. Walhalla for lovers of old cccp-styled architecture and symbolism...

The cookie cutter did most of the work. I bought it in the Science Museum shop.
Housemate looked for the least sci-fi plate she could find. I think she did well.
