Red slide in Izmailovo park. The first Moscow festival of lovers "Red Hill"
On April 23, 2017, the Russian youth holiday “Red Hill” will be celebrated for the first time in Moscow. It will be held in the format of a festival for lovers on the territory of the most elegant Moscow Kremlin - in Izmailovo.
In the old days, boys and girls would preen themselves on Krasnaya Gorka and rush to the festivities with one goal - to find a mate. The brightest and most beautiful place for the festivities was chosen, which was located on a hill. In Moscow, the Izmailovo Kremlin will be such a place for holding a Russian youth holiday.
The Russian youth holiday “Red Hill”, which has long been considered in Rus' as the day of the flowering of nature and tender feelings, will be dedicated to love and acquaintances. For this purpose, all conditions will be created on the festival grounds. At the festival, young Muscovites will be able to: meet en masse (free speed dating zones will work for them), take pictures in cozy photo zones in the form of love nests, take part in a Russian hen or stag party, and get married with the help of fire and iron, going through the ancient ritual of blacksmithing weddings
No one has been riding on a sled or on a cardboard placed under their butt for a long time - everyone has switched to tubing. We chose the Moscow roller coaster, which you can go down really quickly and fun - you can go there with your own tube, or you can rent it.

There are two natural slopes open for skiing here. For kids, a safe and fairly gentle slope on Nizhnaya Street is suitable, and for speed lovers, a steep descent closer to the central part of the park on Zelenaya Polyana is suitable. Another winter entertainment in Kolomenskoye is a ride on a six-seater inflatable “Banana”. This is a land version of the popular water attraction, where instead of a boat, children squealing with delight are driven along the alleys of the park by a real snowmobile.
Food. Not far from the entrance to the park there is a Pizzamento pizzeria and a Kapuchinoff coffee shop with a standard set - coffee, tea, salads, sandwiches, some hot food and children's animation on weekends.
