VVTs
VVTs (All-Russian Exhibition Centre, former VDNKh) was established in 1937, and containing of more than 80 pavillions each representing one aspect of the great economic, industrial and technical might of communism, the Exhibition of Economic Achievements functioned as such until the 1980s. Today, miniature trains ferry shoppers around this gigantic complex.
The main pavilion (House of Russia's Nations) of All-Russia Exhibition Center (VVTs) was built in 1954. It has a strong vertical 56 meter-high tower decorated with gold-plated cereal pattern shot up in front of the entrance to the pavilion. Bronze flags are flaunting over the facade columns and at the basis of the spire, and 6-meter sculptures of Tractor Driver and Female Collective Farmer (devoted to labor) are placed at the corners of the wide second-tier eaves.
The pavilion crowned by the spire with the star is rising to almost 100 meters high by ledges resembling steps of a gigantic staircase, hovering over the entire exhibition ensemble.
