Following Master and Margarita characters walking tour

Daily life in Moscow in the 1920s and 1930s plays an important role in the multi-layered novel, The Master and Margarita — it is not simply a background for the fantastical events and the characters’ unusual adventures.

Prechistenka street and Mikhail Bulgakov walking tour

Lanes of Prechistenka street. Here Mikhail Bulgakov lived and here many of his characters came to life. Here is a house where professor Preobrazhensky brought a stray dog named Sharik. And here is a house where the Master wrote his brilliant novel. On Ostozhenka street we can see Margarita’s mansion and a little further we will take a step down the lane and proceed the way of Ivan Bezdomny when he chased a «foreign professor of black magic» Woland.

Once at the Patriarch’s Ponds walking tour

During this tour you may plunge into the mysterious events of the novel «The Master and Margarita» by Mikhail Bulgakov: the first meeting between Mikhail Berlioz and Ivan Bezdomny with a «foreign professor of black magic» Woland; an incident at the «Griboedov» restaurant; a fateful meeting of the Master and Margarita in a «crooked, dull street». You will find out where Bulgakov held a spiritualistic s?ance and where he met his third wife Elena Shilovskaya.
