A must in Moscow: taking the metro. First, you go down pretty deep on the escalator and once you're down, you'll find palatial train stations.
Then a visit to "Wladi" in the Kremlin. Sometimes you have to wonder if the Kremlin is now in China, there are so many Chinese people here. Long queues wait in front of every cathedral there. Another visit to Red Square, which is currently completely filled with stands for some festivities.
After lunch, we went on a boat tour on the Moskva River. It's nice to see the whole city from a different perspective.
Tonight, there will be high culture: Swan Lake.
