Sunset in Brateevo cascade park
Russia

Created on a former backwater of the Moscow River. Opened in fall 2006. Named it so because it goes down the hill from the street Borisov ponds, terraces to the river - cascade. Creek, a haven of old ships, filled and turned into hills, greener, and turned into a beautiful parkland. Where, before splashing the water, now trees, benches and playgrounds.
