Around Museums

An app to navigate Moscow's museums

This Russian-developed app is designed to help you find museums as you walk around town. It gives you information on museum hours, admission fees and exhibitions, as well as on basic services and accessibility for people with disabilities. You get reviews and ratings by other users — and can put in your own. And it will plot a route to get you to the closest museum or the one you really want to visit, even taking into account Moscow's bicycle rental points during the warm months.
