In the Moscow region, there are two settlements with the name Istra. Moreover, they are located very close to each other. There is the city of Istra, and there is a village in the Krasnogorsk region with the same name.
Instructions
Step 1
To get to the city of Istra, go to the Rizhsky railway station. From there, trains depart, following in the right direction. Istra is located 40 kilometers northwest of Moscow, and trains run there quite often. In addition, Kursk electric trains run through the Istra and Novoirusalimskaya stations, which are also located in the city. Their terminal stations are Podolsk, Shcherbinka, Depo or Moscow - Kurskaya. Travel time from the station is about an hour. You can also use the comfortable Sputnik train. He will take you to Istra in 40 minutes.
Step 2
The city of Istra can also be reached by bus. Express trains leave from the Tushinskaya metro station. Next to it there is a bus station and a parking lot for intercity buses. Those who follow to Volokolamsk and beyond come to Istra. There are also special flights Moscow-Istra. Travel time is about an hour excluding traffic jams. The bus schedule can be found by calling the reference numbers: +7 (495) 232-61-83 and +7 (985) 143-47-12.
Step 3
By car, Istra can be reached along the Novorizhskoe and Volokolamskoe highways. The first path is several kilometers longer. But due to the fact that the track is newer and wider, time can be saved. It is better to drive along the Volokolamskoe highway to Istra only at night, when traffic jams in Krasnogorsk near Moscow, through which it passes, dissipate.
Step 4
The village of Istra is located in the Krasnogorsk district of the Moscow region. It is part of the rural settlement of Ilyinskoye. You can get to it from the Tushinskaya station of the Moscow metro and the Pavshino station of the Riga railway. Regular buses and minibuses go to Istra. By car, you need to go along the Novorizhskoe highway. The village is located 500 meters south of it.
