Borisovskie ponds how to get there by car. How to get to Borisovskie Prudy Park in Borisov North by Metro, bus or train? Church of the Life-Giving Trinity at Borisovskie Ponds

Borisov ponds (the former name of Tsarevoborisovsky or Tsareborisovsky pond) is a reservoir that began its history in the distant 16th century. It got its name from the legendary Boris Godunov. He and his sister Irina owned the land on which the pond is located. In this article, let's talk about the history of Borisov ponds in Moscow.

The reservoir is located simultaneously on the territory of several districts:

  • Orekhovo-Borisovo North;
  • Moskvorechye-Saburovo;
  • Brateevo.

In 1998 Borisovskie Ponds became part of the Tsaritsyno Natural and Historical Park.

An excursion into history

For the first time in the archives, Borisov Ponds appear in 1600. The reservoir was formed when the Godunovskaya dam was created on the Gorodnya River, and it was located on the territory of the village. Borisovo.

The order for the construction was given by Boris Fedorovich Godunov. Scribe books store information that in 1627-1628 the reservoir bore the name of Tsar. There was a stone dam and a mill.

  • One interesting fact is known from the archives. In 1767, Catherine, passing by the village. Borisovo stopped here for a rest. The queen was settled in a traveling wooden palace. When the great ruler admired the pond, she saw a cross that glittered at the top of the temple. She asked what it was. She was told that behind the forest there is a village with the wonderful name Black mud. And in the village there is a temple, the dome of which shines in the sun. Eight years passed and the village began to be called Tsaritsyn.
  • In the 17th-19th centuries, on the left side of the reservoir, there was a place with a strange name - the reserved forest of the Zarazy tract. In fact, in Old Slavic "infection" means "steep bank, cliff".
  • In 1860, a merchant named Gampson built a paper mill here.

Fishing and apple orchard

In with. Borisov peasants caught fish and served them to the tsar's table; there was also a huge apple orchard on the territory. In the archives, data remained that the people who followed the pond and garden were paid not with money, but with land plots. Gardening and fishing brought good money to the village. People lived well here. At the end of the 19th century, the village even had its own school and library. For knowledge in the village. Borisovo drove from neighboring villages.

In the USSR, the village was turned into the Krasnye Voskhody collective farm. It lasted until the 1960s. Today, there is not a trace of the famous village, only apple trees, of which there are a lot, remind of the collective farm.

The territory of the pond was officially annexed to Moscow only in 1960. In the 70s, the island was artificially created. Two bridges, the Lower and the Upper Borisovskie, were launched through it. The bridges divided the forest into two: Shipilovsky and Borisovsky. Since then, it has become customary to call the body of water in the plural. Borisovskie ponds in 1998 by the decree of the government were included in the natural-historical park "Tsaritsyno".

Dimensions of the park and reservoir

The reservoir is considered the largest pond in Moscow. It covers an area of ​​86 hectares. Now there is a park around the reservoir, which occupies 237 hectares. It surrounds the reservoir from all sides. Here it is:

  • 4 football fields;
  • 8 volleyball fields;
  • 10 tennis courts;
  • skate park;
  • 8 kilometers of bike paths;
  • 40 picnic spots;
  • playgrounds.

In winter, the latter are turned into a ski track. There are beaches on the northern and southern shores. They are comfortable and clean, but Rospotrebnadzor forbids swimming here. Lifeguards and police are on duty in the park. On the banks of the pond, fishermen catch:

  • perch;
  • carp;
  • crucian carp.

Not so long ago, grass carp was launched into the pond. Its mission is to fight algae thickets that multiply rapidly in the water. Fishing is not prohibited, but you can see signs urging fishermen to release grass carp into the wild to carry out a special assignment.

Church on Borisov ponds

As a village with a church, Borisovo was first mentioned in the receipt books of the patriarchal order for 1628. The first wooden church was dedicated to St. Nicholas.

Information that there was a church in Borisov dates back to 1628. The temple was erected in honor of St. Nicholas. The wooden structure was destroyed. Later, the Church of the Holy Life-Giving Trinity was built very close to the reservoir. The exact date of its creation has not been preserved in history. The temple was located very inconveniently, since it was adjacent to the cemetery, which is unacceptable according to sanitary standards. In addition, many dams created during the construction of the Tsaritsyno palace complex provoked a strong rise in water.

The white-stone temple gradually began to collapse, and it was decided to build a new one, which is clearly visible from the Kashirskoye highway. The old temple functions to this day. The new shrine will be discussed further.

In honor of the 1000th anniversary of the Baptism of Rus in 1988, in the area of ​​Borisov ponds, a stone was laid for the construction of the Church of the Life-Giving Trinity. The construction of the shrine began in 2000. It took 4 years to create.

The temple was created as a complex, that is, conciliarly. It has the status of the Patriarchal Court. On the territory there are:

  • Temple;
  • house of clergy;
  • children's music school;
  • three chapels.

Moscow Mayor Yuri Mikhailovich Luzhkov attracted a lot of attention to the creation of the temple. The construction was carried out by the Baltic Construction Company. It was led by Igor Alexandrovich Naivalt.

The temple is a cruciform structure with one dome. The shrine is made in the Byzantine style. The blue color of the domes is a symbol of the powers of the Angels and the Mother of God. Up to 4000 people can enter the temple at the same time.

On the façade of the shrine there are porcelain tiles painted with gold. The work was headed by Yuri Volkotrub - the head of the workshop "Guild of Masters". The icons were painted by the team of Vasily Nesterenko. The general process was supervised by the Expert Council, which was headed by Bishop Frolov.

From the icons located in the church, one can read the entire thousand-year history of the Russian Orthodox Church. Here are all the images of especially revered saints.

I would especially like to note the extraordinary iconosotas. Its uniqueness lies in the fact that it is made of ceramics combined with marble. The first here are the icons of Princess Olga and Vladimir as a tribute to the baptists of Russia.

How to get there?

The park and the reservoir can be reached by metro. You can get to Borisovskie ponds from the Kashirskaya station by buses 738, 740. Muscovites love this place very much and call it “Bariks”. The address of Borisovskiye Prudy for those who will get there by car: Moscow, st. Borisov ponds.

Moscow beaches are a purely internal affair of Muscovites. In the sense that Moscow is not a resort, and tourists do not come here for swimming and tanning. Nobody, of course, limits the entrance to the beaches for strangers, but what to do on a Moscow beach for a Volzhan or a resident of the Black Sea region, accustomed to wide shores, vast beaches and large water. The exception will probably be something unusual for the majority. There is such a thing in Moscow.

Nudist beaches in Moscow

There are three nudist beaches in Moscow.

Beach in "Serebryany Bor". The most popular of Moscow nudist beaches. If you get by land transport, you can take trolleybuses 86, 20 and 65 to the terminal station. From there, follow an ecological path that leads to two bridges. From them you can already turn to the river, to its right bank. The beach is chastely surrounded by a high fence, but the entrance was left free. For vacationers on the beach there is a volleyball net, and catering points with drinks and light snacks. There are no undressing booths, but in fact, who needs them there. There are two categories of vacationers wandering along the beach - naked and clothed. The first ones bathe and sunbathe, and the second ones look at the first ones. Swimming on it is officially prohibited, the beach is wild and littered.

For your information! The left bank was captured by homosexuals vacationing. The administration of the beach is fighting with them, although gays are not swimming naked, but in bathing shorts. Formally, there is no reason to disperse homosexuals, so the methods of struggle are peculiar. On the left bank, fir trees and other trees are being intensively planted. The dense vegetation will keep gays off the beach, according to city officials.

Swan Lakes is the second most popular nudist beach among Muscovites. An exceptionally picturesque place at the confluence of the Moskva River and the Stroginskaya Poyma. You can get there from the Shchukinskaya metro station by bus 638. You need to go to the water ski stadium. It is even easier to rent a boat on the Serebryany Bor beach and take a ride to the opposite coast.

Lyubertsy quarry is a place for misanthropes. Few people want to trudge along the rocky peninsula to gawk at naked bathers. You can get there by minibus 474 from the Lyublino or Kuzminki metro stations.

Going to any Moscow beach, one must remember that Moscow is a metropolis, and therefore in the fullest sense is the spokesman for Evelyn Waugh's idea - "Benefit is not beneficial if it is given for nothing." So you have to pay for everything except air.

In addition, the conditions of the megalopolis are unfavorable for natural reservoirs, and therefore one should be prepared for the fact that ablution in a river or lake will be prohibited. In total, there are about 90 natural reservoirs in Moscow equipped with recreational facilities. Swimming in 2017 was only possible in 11 of them.

Borisovskie ponds are actually one, the largest pond on the territory of Moscow. Previously, it was known under the names Tsareborisovsky and Tsareborisovsky. The pond and park are located on the Gorodnya River in the Southern Administrative District, on the territory of the Orekhovo-Borisovo Severnoye and Moskvorechye-Saburovo districts.

The pond includes several stretches, in fact, therefore, the plural is often used when mentioning it. Borisov pond closes the cascade of Tsaritsyn ponds, and on the largest reach there is a dam separating it from the Lower Tsaritsyn pond. The pond area is 86 hectares, the average depth is 2.5 meters. The pond is fed by ground and surface water. The Borisov bridges are thrown across the pond, along which the Kashirskoe highway and Borisovskie Prudy street pass. The landscape park, located in the vicinity of Borisovskie ponds, is a continuation. Next to the pond is the Church of the Life-Giving Trinity at Borisov Ponds (has the status of the Patriarch's courtyard) and the Church of the Trinity in Borisov.

It is believed that the pond was dug in the 16th century, after Boris Godunov built a palace estate in this place, called Borisovo. And now, on the bank of the pond, there are the remains of an ancient village that existed in the distant past. The pond was built "on the occasion of the famine year to feed the people in 1600". In the same year, the first documentary mention of the pond is found - this is due to the stocking of the reservoir. 98,563 sterlets, 36,792 pikes, 235 sturgeons, 10 belugas and other fish were released into the pond - a total of 348,992 fish. Until the 20th century, the pond was stocked several more times. At the end of 190 and beginning of the 20 centuries, the Moscow Society of Fishing Lovers was engaged in this. Until the middle of the 20th century, the Borisov pond was the most fishy in the Moscow region.

In the 17th century, fish from the Borisov pond was supplied to the sovereign's table. Local peasants were forbidden to fish here, the watchmen followed. In the middle of the 19th century, they (together with family members) were 16 male souls and 28 female souls.

In the scribes of the 1620s, the pond is referred to as "Sovereign". At that time, there was a stone dam and a mill. Later, a paper mill was built on the site of the mill. In the 17-18 centuries, on the left bank of the Borisov pond, the Zrazy tract was located. This forest stretched along the right bank of the Moskva River between the villages of Dyakovskoye and Saburovo, and the royal hunting took place there. In the 19th century, islands were poured on the Borisov pond. Empress Catherine II loved to walk here during her visit to Tsaritsyn. One of her entertainments was watching the fishing. In the past, it was quite a spectacular event. For example, P.I. Shalikov described a fishing holiday that took place at Tsareborisovsky pond in 1833. The party was organized by Princess V.M. Gagarin. Its participants were Grand Duke Mikhail Pavlovich with his wife, Grand Duchess Elena Pavlovna, Prince V.P. Kochubei with his wife, Counts L.V. and D.V. Vasilchikovs. Especially for the holiday, a pier and an observation deck were built, decorated with flowers and orange (orange) trees. A large tent was erected on the shore for the Grand Dukes. The celebration was accompanied by the horn music of the Uhlan regiment. At the signal of a rocket, 200 peasants from nearby villages threw seines into the pond. The common people watched all this.

Writer N. D. Ivanchin-Pisarev wrote down one of the legends associated with the Borisov pond. The legend tells that once "a carp or some other fish" was caught here, in the belly of which there was an earring of Boris Godunov's sister - Queen Irina Fedorovna.

In 1972, the Lower and Upper Borisov bridges were thrown across the Borisov pond. As a result, the pond was divided into two streams: the western one (adjacent to the Shipilovskaya dam) and the eastern one (from the Kashirskoye highway, passing through the bridges, to the Borisovskaya dam). Actually, after that, the name of the ponds appeared in the plural.

There is a beach with boat and rescue stations on the northern shore of Borisovskie ponds. There are also numerous cafes in the summertime. The coast itself is sandy. The last large-scale works on the improvement of the Borisov ponds were carried out in 2007-2008 - the reservoir was drained and cleaned. The water in the ponds is periodically cleaned, although in recent years, due to the pollution of water with oil products, bathing is often prohibited. The southern bank of the pond needs improvement, now it is less suitable for recreation.

In 2011, the Moscow authorities decided to reconstruct the area adjacent to the pond. The Borisovskiye Prudy Park was built there. Now there are two football fields, 8 volleyball courts, 6 tennis courts, 40 gazebos with barbecue facilities, and 8 km of bike paths. Children's playgrounds are equipped for children.
