Some 1.9 million tourists visited Moscow during the 2021 holiday season, most of them - from St. Petersburg, Moscow Mayor Sergey Sobyanin said on TV.
"The total number of tourists who visited Moscow in the ten days of holidays is 1,900 thousand. This is less than last year, of course, but you’ve got to agree, this is a rather large number," Sobyanin said.
According to the Mayor, the number of car drivers coming to Moscow from St. Petersburg increased twofold compared to the last year. Besides, Moscow saw tourists from Kaluga, Vladimir, Tver, Tula, but no foreigners, TASS reported.
