The place is a combination of human and physical characteristics that set a particular place apart from other places. Moscow is a huge city with a wonderful subway system. As I remember it from my visit there over 30 years ago, the subway stations had colorful mosaics. Also outstanding in Moscow is the Kremlin and St. Basil's Cathedral.

Of course, Moscow's climate is cold -- and similar to that of the northern Midwest United States.
