Best Time To Visit
Deciding when to visit Moscow depends a lot on your budget and your durability. Russian winters are incredibly harsh with temperatures that reach below zero on some days and winds that will chill you to your core. This kind of weather isn't for everyone, but in the summer the temperatures can reach the high 80s. Shoulder seasons are the perfect time to experience Moscow due to the mild temperatures. Due to the peak travel period, summers will always cost a little more than usual.
