This is a must see from the outside. Visitors aren't allowed inside the campus. Outstanding structure, so detailed. I've not seen such University building like this one. Tourist comes in busses to see this University from all over the world. Many tours include this campus under places to see in Moscow. There's also a very beautiful park outside the University which is a must see especially during fall. The park is covered with dense Maple trees so during fall the Maple leaves cover the entire walkway and grass in the park. We took off our shoes and walked around the park stepping on the soft maple leaves. Everyone at the park was walking like that because the leaves are so soft. Entire area smells like maple syrup. Completely beautiful just like in movies. I'm attaching pictures of the University and park.

What if I could be back in the past, I would study in this 1 of the Grandest universities where I've known what I preferred learning. However it's just to watch and see only outside this university so I'm gratefully appreciated.

One of the magnificent Stalin skyscrapers dotted around the city and an absolute must-see. A wonderful campus worth seeing even if you're just passing through. The park behind the university leading to the lecturers' residences is very well maintained. Highly recommended as a photo opportunity.
