AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE : Contributor Viacheslav brings us this excellent drone video of a well-known Russian manor on the outskirts of Moscow. It's called the Vorontsova-Dashkova Estate, and it's located in the village of Bykovo, southeast of central Moscow and between its first and second ring roads. The estate was originally built in the 18th century for the Vorontsov family, a noble family of Tsarist Russia, whose power and wealth once rivaled that of the ruling Romanovs. Nationalized after the Russian Revolution, a renovation for the estate is being planned.
