We invite you to visit the outstanding engeneering building of Moscow, Ostankino TV tower to learn some secrets of its construction and engenerring technologies as well as enjoy breath-taking views of Moscow at the 337 meter height. (Please note that we can not make the weather and guarantee great conditions for the view :) 

Designed by Nikolai Nikitin the TV tower was built in 1967 to mark the 50th anniversary of the October Revolution. The architect designed the tower silhouette overnight. An upside down lily, with a firm stem and four solid petals-supports, was an inspiration for the tower. Later Nikitin increased the number of supports to ten, following the advice of the world-famous German civil engineer Fritz Leonhardt.

Are you curious to find out how deep is the basement is? What does this structure look inside? What does help it to stand? Can the tower withstand an earthquake or a strong hurricane? How to mask the tower during the war?
