Ten Most Popular Roofs of Moscow

Since the beginning of the new century Moscow started to grow in quite an industrial and business city all in one. Therefore many companies went mad with their ideas of making Moscow the city of world business and began building a bunch of office buildings that were supposed to be as high as the sky. As soon as some of them were built sea of photographers popped up at once and half of the capital went off their heads with taking photos at Moscow’s roofs.

9 – Aerobus housing complex

This lunker of a house is Aerobus housing complex located near Aeroport metro station. While passing it by one can easily think that this sturdy was built and never can be destroyed. But basically it’s just a house with people’s apartments.

5 – House on Embankment roof
