I went with a friend to Gorky Park last weekend. I had heard of Gorky Park but didn't know what it was. I am actually still not sure what my fifty Rouble entrace fee was for, though I did ride the ferris wheel for another fifty Roubles, which was good fun. From the top it was interesting to look down over all of Moscow and seen Stalin's Seven Sister popping up in different spots on the horizon, and I was again reminded of the crazy disjuncture of the city and the strange angles at which everything meets.
The ferris wheel itself was quite clunky and made strange noises. The locks on some of the carriages were broken. On Monday I read here another ferris wheel had collapsed and several people had been injured. Guess I won't be doing that again.
