- Is it possible to see anything of Moscow in one or two days?

- Well, yes, but of course, not half enough.

- What do you think I ought to see first?

- Well, if you are interested in historical places, you should go to the Red Square. Do you like art galleries?

- Rather.

- Then why not to go to the State Tretyakov Gallery? But you could spend a whole day there. It’s much too big to be seen in an hour or so.

- What about going to the Bolshoi Opera House?

- That’s not a bad idea. How can I get there?

- Let me see. I think your best way from here is to walk across the square.

- Is it much of a walk?

- Oh, no, a quarter of an hour or so.
