Chapter 146: Sevenfold Heaven
After visiting the New Virgin Cemetery, it was a little dark. When we walked out of the cemetery, we didn't see any cars on the road, so we had to walk in the direction of Moscow University.
Look at the time It's almost six o'clock, I just had a simple pizza at Gum at noon, I walked around the cemetery just now, I have completely digested the little calorie at noon, and now I feel very hungry. Hungry and thirsty, my stomach couldn't help but gurgle, and Sveta, who was holding my arm, heard the voice, covered her mouth and laughed, "Peng, your stomach is gurgling, and my stomach is also gurgling." Brother Chao, who was walking in front of us, turned around and said, "Are you hungry?" My stomach is rumbling too, let's find a place to eat now, do you have any good ideas for you, beauties? Vera smiled and asked Brother Chao: "Vanya, there must be a good Jianyi, but it's very expensive, it depends on whether you are willing to spend money or not?" Brother Chao smiled and said, "Vera, where are you going?" If the money is not enough, it is a big deal to press Peng there. "I pouted" as far as the prices in Moscow are concerned, I'm afraid I'm not worth the cost of that meal. Brother Chao laughed, "You're quite self-aware, press you there, and Sveta will definitely redeem you." Sveta laughed, "Vanya, you're worth more than Peng, you should be pressed there, we can have a big meal." Brother Chao nodded, "Okay, I know that Sveta is reluctant to Peng, and after talking for a long time, I haven't told SΓΉ where I'm going to eat." Vera pointed in the direction of the city center, we looked in the direction of her finger, and clearly saw the TV Tower, the tallest landmark building in Moscow in the twilight, and Chao Ge made an OK gesture, "Okay, let's go to the Seven Heavens Revolving Restaurant for dinner." Vera looked at Brother Chao in surprise and asked, "Vanya, do you also know the Seven Heavens?" I was just kidding, it's very expensive there. Brother Chao nodded affirmatively, "I heard about the Seven Heavens last time I came, but I haven't been there, I'll go there to eat today, I'm not afraid of expensive, Youpeng." After hearing Brother Chao's words, Sveta and Vera both laughed.
After walking for a while, I stopped a private car on the road. In the car, Sveta told me that the TV tower in Moscow is the first tower in Europe, the second in the world, built at the end of the sixties, the height of the tower is more than 500 meters, because the tower is very high, the tower body will swing with the wind, when designing, the top of the reasonable swing can reach 20 meters. I couldn't help but open my mouth wide when I heard it, "Wow! "With a bang on the ground, swinging 20 meters, what does it feel like to be at the top of the tower? In the 60s, the Soviet Union was able to build a TV tower more than 500 meters high, and you can imagine how powerful the Soviet Union was in the world at that time. I asked Sveta curiously, "Sveta, is the Seven Heavens Restaurant at the top of the tower?" Before Sveta could answer, Vera couldn't help but laugh, "Peng, think for yourself, if you were at the top of the tower, you wouldn't be blown away by the wind." Sveta laughed and said, "Peng, you are such a lovely fool, the spire of the tower can be swayed by the wind for twenty meters, can you eat on it?" Located at more than 300 meters and overlooking Moscow, the Seventh Heaven is the most famous restaurant in Moscow. I see, no wonder Vera says it's expensive to eat there.
We got to the bottom of the TV tower, looked up, and felt only that an Optimus Prime was reaching straight into the clouds. Bought a ticket to enter the TV tower, look at the introduction on the wall, the TV tower is called Ostankino TV Tower, the appearance of the Ostankino TV Tower was designed by the former Soviet designer Nikolai Nikitin, reinforced concrete structure, the Ostankino TV Tower began to be built in 1963 and completed in 1967. This "giant" can be seen all over Moscow and can be used as a symbol for positioning the whole city of Moscow, and is a member of the World Federation of Great Towers. For eight years after its completion, the Ostankino Tower held the title of the world's tallest building until the inauguration of the CN Tower in Toronto, Canada, in 1976. The tower is 540 meters high and has a total weight of 51,400 metric tons. What a veritable "giant"
We took the high-speed elevator to the observation deck at 337 meters, I don't know if it was because we heard Sveta say that the top of the tower swayed 20 meters in the wind, or if the tower was really shaking? As soon as I got to the observation deck, I felt the tower shaking, and I couldn't help but feel a little nervous, and I asked Sveta if she felt the tower shaking? Sveta said that he didn't feel it, and when he asked Brother Chao again, Brother Chao also said that he didn't feel it. It seems that this is typical of my mental suggestion. From the observation deck, you can see a panoramic view of Moscow, and it is the evening when the lights are lit up, and the lights of the traffic on the road are like dancing silver dragons. The Moskva River is beautifully illuminated by neon lights, and the five-pointed star on the Kremlin tower shines brightly. We were all so enchanted by the beauty that we forgot about our hunger.
There is a clear glass floor on the observation deck, so I can look down at the scenery under my feet, and I just stood up and looked down, and immediately my heart beat short and my legs went limp. Sveta didn't even have the courage to stand up, so she finally stood up with her arms around me and looked down, and immediately lost her face with fright, and buried her head in my arms, not daring to look at it again.
In the end, it was the rumbling stomach that reminded us to eat. At the Seven-Heaven Revolving Restaurant, we ordered the most classic Russian dishes, beetroot soup, vegetable salad, grilled chicken thighs, pancakes, and a bottle of Georgian red wine, although the prices on the menu were staggering. Brother Chao said indifferently: "It's rare to come to Moscow once, and it would be a pity not to eat once on the Seventh Heaven, there is a saying in Russia that people only live once in this world, so don't treat yourself badly." β
The food was slow and the service here was really unsatisfactory. We had to drink lemon tea while enjoying the beautiful night view of Moscow at 360 degrees. When the dishes were served, Sveta said that the taste and price of the food here really didn't match. But I think people don't come here to eat for the food, they come to enjoy the view. What's more, my stomach is almost hungry, and as soon as the food comes up, Brother Chao and I will care about how it tastes, and we devoured it like a whirlwind, and Sveta and Vera still maintained the elegance of the meal. When there was something in the stomach, Brother Chao and I felt a little embarrassed about our gobbling up food, Vera smiled and said, "Looking at your appearance, it seems that you have been hungry for three days, but I like to watch men gobble up." Sveta followed, "I also like to see them gobble up, and I don't think the food here is bad." β
Brother Chao poured me the Georgian red wine that had already woken up, and then raised the goblet in his hand, "Svita Vera, thank you first for taking me and Peng to appreciate the beautiful Moscow, we now toast to the beautiful lady!" β
