Active Moscow If you like active sports, Moscow has a great choice of all the most famous types of Active Sports.

Cycle lanes Short Facts: In 1817, Karl von Drais, a German baron, invented a horseless carriage that would help him get around faster. The two-wheeled, pedal-less device was propelled by pushing your feet against the ground. The machine became known as the “draisine,” and led to the creation of the modern-day bicycle.

The term “bicycle” was not introduced until the 1860s, when it was coined in France to describe a new kind of two-wheeler with a mechanical drive.

The Tour de France is one of the most famous bicycle races in the world. Established in 1903, it is considered to be the biggest test of endurance out of all sports.

Mini-Golf Courses Short Facts: Mini golf might be a lot older than you thought. The oldest putt putt course in existence was built around 1867 by the Ladies’ Putting Club of St. Andrews. It was considered improper at the time for ladies to ‘take the club back past their shoulders.’ Because of this, they created a course that allowed them to play full games without doing that.

The 18th hole typically includes a special hole that “captures” the golf ball, preventing the paying customer from playing more rounds of golf without purchasing another round.

Mini golf is in its third century and is going strong, putting along, all over the world.

Cinemas with movies in vo Short Facts: In 1888, Louis Le Prince directed the very first motion picture titled “Roundhap Garden Scene”, a mere two seconds in length! It wasn’t until 1895 when the Lumier Brothers had the first paid exhibition screening of their short films at the Le Grand Cafe in Paris, when the process of production-distribution-exhibition was distinguished. This was the known birth of not only cinema but the motion picture industry as well.

In the early motion picture age before an organized structure or specific job roles were defined, cinematographers were the sole creators of the entire film production on the set. They were also the directors on the set.

Amusement units in parks Short Facts: Tivoli Gardens in Denmark is one of the oldest operating amusement parks in the world.

It opened in 1843 and is reportedly one of Walt Disney’s inspirations for his parks. The park’s first proprietor, Georg Carstensen, got permission from King Christian VIII to build the park by saying, “When the people are amusing themselves, they do not think about politics.”

“Pleasure wheels”, whose passengers rode in chairs suspended from large wooden rings turned by strong men, may have originated in 17th-century Bulgaria.

The original Ferris Wheel, sometimes also referred to as the Chicago Wheel, was designed and constructed by George Washington Gale Ferris, Jr. Intermark Relocation choice: Gorky Park Luna Park 9, Krymsky Val str. m.Oktyabrskaya, m.

Adventure parks Short Facts: It is unclear where and when the first ropes course was created.

Kids playgrounds in Parks Short Facts: The idea of the playground as a method for imbuing children with a sense of fair play and good manners originated in Germany where playgrounds were erected in connection to schools, although the first purpose built public-access playground was opened in a park in Manchester, England in 1859. Over time, organized playing areas have been adopted by other countries of the world and have become commonplace.

Playgrounds were an integral part of urban culture in the USSR. In the 1970s and 1980s, there were playgrounds in almost every park in many Soviet cities.

Professionals recognize that the social skills that children develop on the playground often become lifelong skill sets that are carried forward into their adulthood. Independent research concludes that playgrounds are among the most important environments for children outside the home.

Mini-zoo Short Facts: While animal-themed clothes are pretty much allowed in most zoos across the world, they are banned at the Chessington World of Adventures in the United Kingdom. The ban came into place after zoo authorities noticed that the animals in their Zufari—an imitation of an African wildlife safari—moved closer to people wearing clothing similar to their respective patterns and coloring, while they ran away from people who wore clothes that resembled their predators.

Compared with those in the wild, animals in zoos have a decidedly longer lifespan. This is because in zoos, the animals have access to better food, veterinary care, and shelter, and mostly just because they don’t have to worry about another animal gobbling them up.
