One of this year’s themes is New Year trees representing Moscow Traditions.
The thematic trees will be put up where mass public events will be held in each administrative district, and information on important events in the district’s history will be posted on entrance ramps.
Toys on the New Year trees will also fit the Moscow Traditions theme.
