Extract:
The city of Moscow lies deep in the heart of the Russian plains, in the wide, shallow valley of the Moskva River. A map of the city records its growth in a series of concentric circles, like the rings of a tree, centred on the ancient fortress of the Kremlin. The innermost ring, the 15th-century Kremlin wall, remains impressively intact, while the Boulevard Ring, a wooded avenue, curves around the line of the 16th-century city walls.

About 3km (2 miles) out from the Kremlin, the Garden Ring is a busy, multi-lane traffic artery, which follows the circular line of a 14 1/2-km (9-mile) earthwork defence built at the end of the 16th century. The name itself dates from the 19th century, during which the rampart was replaced by a tree-lined boulevard, which is itself now sadly superseded by the present traffic-clogged motorway. The outermost ring is the Moscow Ring Road, a 108-km (68-mile) motorway which marks the present-day city limits.
