For anyone with a keen interest in art and photography, a visit to the Moscow House of Photography is an essential component of anyone’s trip around Russia’s capital city.

Located along Ostozhenka ulitsa, the Moscow House of Photography is an outstanding cultural destination, where one can experience a vast selection of photographic art, whether it be from current artists, or those from the soviet period.

Among the exhibitions currently showing is, not only a retrospective by Yuriy Ribchinskiy, but also a selection, covering Italian photography between the 1930s and 1970s - both of which are more than worthy of a call home.

"This gallery has earned a reputation for organizing inventive exhibitions and attracting Russia’s brightest artistic talents," said the Economist.

"With more than a dozen rooms in the refurbished Tsarist house on Ostozhenka, the gallery is a fine place to while away a morning or afternoon."

The Moscow House of Photography is located within easy reach of the Kropotkinskaya metro station.
