Moscow has a long history and the first documents are dated from 1147 – today Moscow is one of the world’s largest cities governed as a federal city that serves as the political, economic, cultural, and scientific centre of Russia and Eastern Europe. Moscow is one of the fastest-growing tourist destinations in the world, and is one of Europe's most visited cities hosting the 1980 Summer Olympics, and it was also one of the host cities of the 2018 FIFA World Cup.
Moscow is also the metropolis of numerous Russian artists, scientists and sportsmen and women, which is reflected in the many museums, academies, institutions and theatres. The city is the home of several UNESCO World Heritage Sites, and is well known for its display of Russian architecture, particularly the historic Red Square, and buildings such as the Saint Basil's Cathedral and the Kremlin, which is the seat of Russia’s government. More than 40 % of the city consists of green areas, making Moscow one of the greenest cities in Europe and the world.
The rally organisers are preparing a very varied programme which campers of all ages can enjoy and also different excursions including trips around Moscow and the city’s environs. After the rally, there will also be an opportunity to tour around Russia with overnight stops in modern well-appointed campsites.

The park and centre cover 13 hectares between Kitaigorodsky Proezd, Ulitsa Varvarka and Moskvoretsakaya Naberezhnaya.
I would like to express our heartfelt thanks to the organisers, The Caravaners League and also to the sponsors who support this F.I.C.C. Rally. A special thanks goes to the many volunteers who will make our stay a pleasant one.
