a look at his epic journey and visit various landmarks associated with his life at . one of the main names associated with. eight hundred seventy s. to me in the choices studio and they live in nineteen i want as one of the leading political figures and revolution we think is of the twentieth century he changed the world. will she take over of power in russia in one hundred seventeen the communist party manage an unwanted class free economy life for an adapted form of marxism but what is the soviet leaders like you see today. for the developments in syria who for all you. might say their mission those guys were really able to take a philosophy churning and if they turn it into something that whole society could use and think it was well intentioned begin ejects these communities on the national review this man was to use from his time and he's still idealist now i

think is completely over the top to keep him in there and you know cheery him in the ground and using the renewal so. he turned everything upside down. there's nothing else to say. it was in london the father of the so you're. right and then changed. and there were friends there for the younger generations you could say that the image of the. band into a retro. figure not helped by tacky pop star t. shirts and. it seems now. equally celebrated and. good and bad he did. acknowledged. the days of thousands of people queuing up to see his. recording locations it's still the main association. with him. in this program we were real many other places.

in front of his life. in the capital for most of the previous century lennon had to make. sense out of the country. because of german threats. as it was. for public viewing. his body moves. even. political backgrounds it is clear that lennon was an exceptional human being even if you. moved into the.

legend has it that he took his wife. and his. with him. the national hunt the last two decades of the access to many many locations previously closed. and us saw museums have. hotels bunkers it seems the russian capital is now open to all. almost if you want an example of a consequence house in the last century this is perfect built in one thousand or three by the famed architect. of. the century before the revolution the hotel hosted foreign diplomats. loyalty business and indeed to the famous after. his proclaimed the first house of the soviet residence of the. communist leader our main point of interest is

room for seven the bright. sun is the location. high ceilings and a sense of history the one hundred seventy. best of the capital but it's also packed full of history. this week inside the hotel was famous they are. seeing the hotel has been renovated since but still. this. choice that's. across the kremlin much of those cars task. today this ring costs thousands of dollars a night i'm not quite sure lennon would be too impressed with the. same rights for everyone. to know is historically connected.

and is still interest for many and those interested do not necessarily need to book a route you can apply for a special tour as the department of. exclusions are organized twice a year. other moscow locations connect with. office. and how much is now on historical exhibits in detail representing the atmosphere in which he lived and watched for several years. and it was open to the public in one nine hundred fifty five became one of the most visited museums in the country but as it was located in the kremlin the same building where the actual russian government president was in the one nine hundred ninety s. it was decided to move the cabinet to the state and touch complex and. historical items have been moved including men's clock but still shows the time when he left the group the last time. of birth which relate to lennon's work

represent the period for nine hundred eighteen thousand nine hundred twenty three but the personal belongings from the collection which we used by lennon in his everyday life but older than that some of them were used by several generations of the family and date back to eight hundred forty two. lennon lookalikes. act. and even the second one hundred roubles that's around three dollars you can have a cheesy reminder of your time. especially popular among foreigners but i have to say there are more still going to comes to money but they understand lennon sells just like everything else in this world. monuments to lenin only examples of studied art but they're also one of the main symbols of the era since the one nine hundred twenty s. thousands of monuments were erected in almost every city and small town of the west

. there were dozens of sculptures of the bullshit leader erected in the city squares in front of administrative buildings and you can still see many of them to this day. one of those most luxurious hotels in a city center was once a stage speeches the metropole hotel built in the beginning of the twentieth century. became a base for the government many leaders lived and worked in the metropole and it was often visited by many when he addressed his associates in the one hundred twenty two functioning hotel again for decades its rules were only available from. politicians. but remember. the hotel has been preserved in its original look despite all the wars and revolutions of the twentieth century here today is the same as it was in nine

hundred eighteen when the bolshevik government had its meetings here but. so when restoration work was carried out in the ninety's all to spawn doubt that the painted walls gloss. damaged which they had to clean to restore their original decorations. hundreds of institutions around the. communism. look at the impact. his. state.

property was nationalized. it's really something. to be seen and not know the answer running grounds are open to the public today but only for organized tours the house is filled with possessions here you can see everything from gifts given to man in his wheelchair various clothes and his four thousand book collection. in may nine hundred twenty three he followed medical advice and left the moscow kremlin. it was here as a frown man only in his early fifty's vladimir image in the north would spend his final years in september nineteenth eighteen a soviet leader. after. i mean chris amount of time.

athletes turn up giving everyone the chance to talk to some top sports stars. i think an event such as this one should be held every year as it is an important occasion for all the current former and future russian limpy and of the population see that athletes give it their all during the games the exposure would increase regardless of the results. it's. just i consider this special day to be a personal holiday for me since i'm an olympic champion i'm going to employ of the olympic committee our main goal is to simply expose as many children as possible sports for a healthier future generation. there was always something to be improved at the governing body of the russian olympic movement but it has helped to raise a lot of champions and once an athlete takes part in the olympics then olympian forever. but at the betting the fan base everything i do now is connected with

sport and that's great i spent more than twenty years in sport and i don't want to let it go i feel some responsibility and i have to give something back after many people have a lot of the effort into making in the olympic champion out of. that that. some of the athletes who arrived at the ground still aiming for olympic gold and with as such only bits in mind russia international hockey player lexeme i feel like you gave his assassin and as a point didn't. you know as russia's new head coach. this. for ever forget. against the four for four for the two year one for himself. and the medals. if you like people who are disappointed by what was just a will of sport with thirty five different activities to try out there was something for everyone russia is going to host many significant sports events like
