Zaryadye Park has been selected as one of TIME Magazine’s 2018 World’s Greatest Places!
Huge public parks were a main feature of Soviet cities, central but also stately and formal—nothing like Zaryadye, Moscow’s first new large-scale public park in 50 years. With a design led by Diller Scofidio + Renfro, the U.S. architects behind New York City’s High Line, the park features a concert hall, an ice cave and a boomerang-shaped bridge cantilevered over the Moscow River. Nearly 10 million people have visited since its September 2017 opening.
TIME solicited nominations across a variety of categories—such as museums, parks, bars, restaurants, theme parks, cruises and hotels—from our editors and correspondents around the world as well as dozens of industry experts.
The result is a list as diverse as the world it reflects, with 100 entries spanning six continents and 48 countries—highlighting everything from a Texas water park that empowers kids with disabilities to a Maldives resort that’s building an undersea abode to a library in Tianjin, China, that’s almost as wondrous as reading itself.
