Swimming




This swimming pool is on Leningradskii Prospekt (betwen Aeroport and Dinamo metro stations), about 30 minutes walk from Sokol. It's ok, old but quite nice and clean. I was here last week for the first time to see how it's like. One single entry costs (including gym too) 700 Rubles and a card for eight times is 3 200 Rubles. It's expensive when compared with Finnish prices but I guess it's normal here in Moscow. I like this place because it is not too crowded during the evenings, sometimes I can swim alone in my lane and it's a long pool, 50 metres :-) There is a sauna too, it's for both men & women and everybody is wearing those funny looking banja hats (and a swimsuit too of course..). My swim card looks so official with a passport photo and stamps, don't you think?
