For the first time a areal view the ancient Sanctuary of Ralegh , hidden so far to protect the dreams and the Sleep of the Elders .

It was not easy get a areal view, the most straightforward access would be from the Moscow Underground, only few miles below, but there is a almost impenetrable layer in between, all the lines and facilities and bunker of the Metro-2 the well know secret underground metro system which run below the public Moscow Metro.
Actually the Metro was used just a cover up to hide the construction of the real thing

Another network , ready to be the last refugee and strong old in case Hitler will win a battle for Moscow

There were tunnels , sufficiently large for trucks to run into, dormitories,deposits of army and supplies , office for the official, bunkers and at the most secret level , offices and bunkers for the higher officials and for Joseph Stalin himself

Joseph Stalin would never end trapped as idiot in a hole without exit as Hitler, in any moment he could run away far from the city, or pop out in the middle of it for spectacular actions

But ok is not a secret is the good old Metro-2 (it is real, one of most known secrets see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metro-2 , there good links to dig more) part of the accesses. tunnels and bunkers were also shown in Discovery channel and similar series

But the point is that all that is still heavily protected , and try to pass thought the Security unnoticed may be really dangerous .

The solution come from the BBC http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/4648569.stm ,

that manhole was already been locked beyond hope , all that area of the park protected by fences camera , but was easy from there guess others possible and less monitored access
And so finally we found one sufficiently large for our vehicle for areal photography ...

Nice work again. I Like the last one because you have singled out a feature keeping the background simple. :)
