RUSSIA: MOSCOW: COMMUNISM EXHIBITION
Russian/Nat
A huge exhibition and park complex on the outskirts of Moscow, constructed to celebrate communism's achievements turns 60 on Sunday.
Like the rest of Russia, the centre is now suffering a funding crisis.
Its halls, where Soviet citizens once came to marvel at the technology that could put a man into space, are now warehouses for cheap TVs from South-east Asia.
Now the struggle is to preserve what remains of the park's exhibits.
Superficially, this monument to Soviet achievement still looks good.
Its golden statues continue to glisten, while its magnificent fountains are a magnet for Muscovites in the hot summer.
The vast exhibition and park complex, known as the Exhibition of the Achievements of the National Economy or V-D-N-K, was opened 60 years ago.
Soviet propaganda films portrayed the centre in northern Moscow as a showcase for the achievements of the economy.
This, they said, was a place where the hundreds of nationalities of the USSR's sixteen republics could mix in harmony and display the fruits of their labours.
Now, 60 years on, there are some who are trying to revive those traditions.
Former Soviet prime minister Nikolai Ryzhkov would dearly love to resurrect V-D-N-K as a symbol of the old regime's achievements.
But he admits hard cash will be needed if the centre is to regain its former glory.
SOUNDBITE: (Russian)
There are many parts of the centre where activities have been stopped. The Kolos fountain hasn't been working for two years because the pressure system needs to be replaced. The Space pavilion is in a pitiful state. It needs 10 million dollars to restore it.
SUPER CAPTION: Vasily Shupira, Exhibition Centre Director
For, like mush of the rest of the former U-S-S-R the V-D-N-K is suffering a crisis of funding.
Its famous Space pavilion is looking the worse for wear.
Under the photo of Yury Gagarin, the first man to orbit the earth, Soviet citizens once came to share in one of the Soviet Union's greatest achievements - the conquest of space.
The final indignity, before the pavilion closed completely, was to be used as a market place for electrical goods.
Other buildings continue to be used for the pursuit of profit.
The centre's management claims money from the sales will be ploughed back into what's left of the exhibits.
Even if the cash raised is enough to keep the ailing centre going, Muscovites, who have grown up visiting its displays, say its too little, too late.
SOUNDBITE: (Russian)
There are a lot fewer exhibitions now. Basically it's all shopping now. Before you could take a look at the animals, take a horse ride...Now it's just shopping, clothes, not much. Half of it's O.K., half of it's bad.
SUPER CAPTION: Voxpop
Nikolai Ryzhkov will continue his efforts to preserve this symbol of the worker's revolution.
But it seems unlikely Soviet-style tractor exhibitions can do much to conjure up the glory days of the V-D-N-K's past
For the moment it seems the modern, capitalist, Russia, has no money to spend preserving its communist past.

Zolotoi Kolos
Moscow's hospitality sector has a reputation for high prices, and no wonder. The city has an abundance of glitzy 5-star luxury hotels, while at the other end of the spectrum, affordable 2- and 3-star lodgings are somewhat scarce. But good value can be found if you know where to look for it - and it doesn't have to be bunks in a hostel or even a capsule hotel; it can even be a proper hotel, sometimes in quite a choice location.
One example is the 3-star Zolotoi Kolos hotel in the city's north, where clean and neat hotel rooms are available at prices so low they're practically unheard-of in Moscow.

На ВДНХ запустили знаменитый фонтан Золотой колос - Россия 24
Гостям ВДНХ будет легче переносить летний зной: на главной аллее запущены сразу 14 фонтанов, в том числе и знаменитый Золотой колос, который считается одной из визитных карточек выставки. Из-за аварийного состояния в 90-е годы его отключили и осушили, и только прошлым летом взялись за реставрацию.
