Krasnogorsk is a small city in West Moscow Oblast that is best known for its 18-hole golf course, the Moscow Country Club Resort, where Moscow's finest come to play. But even with out the allure of 18 holes, the city is worth a visit for its two large classical estates, one of which (Arkhangelskoye) is one of the finest in Moscow Oblast.
- Znamenskoye-Gubailovo Estate. A beautiful 18th-century classical estate that is undergoing restoration, which was regularly visited by Moscow literati, including the great Russian writer, Andrey Bely. At its center is the 17th-century Znamenskoye Church and to the north, landscaped parks.
- Arkhangelskoye Estate, +7 495 797-54-09. 10:00–17:00 daily. A 17th-century estate, which belonged to the fabulously wealthy Yusupov family, is now a popular estate-museum, which hosts classical and jazz music concerts in the summer
