Tall obelisk and surrounding memorial complex on Poklonnaya Hill — striking vertical compositions, memorial sculptures, eternal flame, fountains and wide park avenues. Best at golden hour or after dark when floodlights sculpt the obelisk; weekday mornings are quieter. Easily reached via Park Pobedy metro; paid parking nearby. Respectful behavior required — it’s a national WWII memorial.
