Okhotny Ryad street
The street got its name in the 17th century, when it was part of a large Moscow market where game could be traded. Over the centuries, the shopping area has been moved several times to other parts of the city, and the name of the street has taken root. From 1961 to 1991, the street, together with Teatralny Passage and Mokhovaya, was part of Marx Avenue. In 1991, it was returned to its historical name.
The same name is given to the metro station, opened in 1935. If you are going to visit Red Square, Okhotny Ryad is the closest metro station to it. In 1977-1978, the station was renamed Prospekt Marksa, but quickly regained its old name.
Okhotny Ryad is one of the truly Moscow streets. She has repeatedly appeared in domestic films, for example, in “Moscow Does Not Believe in Tears”. Songs were dedicated to her — Yuri Vizbor has a song with the same name. Before visiting Red Square, you can take a walk along Okhotny Ryad and feel the real spirit of Moscow. And for shopping lovers, there is a huge shopping center with the appropriate name on the street, where you can find stores of well-known world brands of clothing, shoes and accessories.
There are several remarkable buildings on Okhotny Ryad Street: the building of the Council of Labor and Defense (house No. 1), which is now occupied by the State Duma, [House of the Noble Assembly] ( https://kudago.com/msk/place/zdanie-blagorodnogo-sobraniya/) (House of Soviets, Building No. 3) and the building of the former Moscow Hotel (house No. 2).
