| Church of St. Nicholas of the Weavers |
Back on the metro to Park Kulturni and a visit to the Church of St. Nicholas of the Weavers. Rather odd lunch which included (by mistake) cold black cherry soup. Then on to Tolstoy's House / Museum but, alas, it was closed.

But, at the end of Tolstoy Street, is a statue of the master, set in the Devichovo Pole (Maiden's Field) where the scene takes place in War and Peace in which Pierre watches the executions by the French soldiers. I've read this scene so many times - it was incredible to be there.
