Gorky

After the Church Walk, I passed by the entrance of Gorky Park. When it was created, it was called Park Kultury (Culture), but then Stalin changed to Gorky as part of his maniac project of naming everything after some commie figure.

Here is a pic of the entrance.


Nowadays it is necessary to pay some 50 rubles (25 cents) to enter the park, and there are many small amusement parks inside. This is a caroussel just by the entrance.
