GUM

It’s great fun wandering around GUM, where you can find all manner of products - from souvenirs to edibles and clothing. GUM is big, brash and an unforgettable place to shop. Little has changed since the Soviet era's end a couple of decades ago in terms of the general atmosphere, so a trip here might be worth it for the experience alone.
