Pure Luxury

“Call me spoiled - but I love to be treated like a queen when traveling. Only the best is good enough for me. Hotels that make my vacation a dream of luxury and seduction are my choices. Pay attention to the (violet Medal) for luxury accommodation.”

Sustainable Travel

“There is only one earth and we should go out and see it. I like hotels, which look for sustainability. It is not only protecting the ecology, but also taking care for the local business and culture. I recommend the medal for eco accomodation. Let’s protect our earth. Sustainable travel is travelling with responsibility.”

Markus Lenk, Düsseldorf, Germany

Veshki offers two distinct themes for a trip focused on culture and nature: the history of Elias Church and the eco-park at Uar Church. Their status also differs. Elias Church has a construction start in 2015 and a Great Consecration; the eco-park is in the development and construction phase. This provides helpful guidance for your plans: the history of a church contrasts with a nature-focused project still taking shape, featuring a nature trail and a devotional path.

Church History in Veshki

In 2015, construction began on a new Elias Church on a designated plot on the outskirts of the villages of Veshki and Khovrino. On August 20, Bishop Foma of Sergiev Posad and Dmitrov performed the Great Consecration of Elias Church in Veshki, Mytishchi District. The start of construction and the consecration represent different aspects: the construction start is part of the building’s history, while the Great Consecration is part of the church’s religious history. Those interested in local history will find both a construction-related and a religious point of reference here.

Eco-Park at Uar Church

The eco-park “Along Unknown Paths in Mytishchi” is located at Uar Church in the village of Veshki and is in the development and construction phase. One of its features is the devotional path “Path of the Mother of God.” A nature trail with 15 thematic stations has also been developed for the eco-park. The name of the devotional path adds a religious note, while the thematic stations give the nature trail a clear structure. Thus, a devotional path and nature-focused education are part of the profile of this emerging project. A plot on the outskirts of Veshki and Khovrino was designated for the construction of Elias Church; the eco-park, by contrast, is located at Uar Church in Veshki.

One specific excursion day was September 2, 2025: students in classes 5G, 6D, and 7V from Moscow School No. 1449 walked the ecological trail by the Church of Saint Uar on an excursion and also visited Blizhnyaya Dacha Park. This was a single school excursion. It combined a walk along the nature trail with a park visit as part of a dated school outing.

Church History or a Nature Theme?

You can distinguish between these themes when deciding which perspective to focus on during your stay. The construction project and Great Consecration of Elias Church relate to church history; the eco-park, with its nature trail and devotional path, relates to nature education. The eco-park’s development and construction phase is also relevant context. It distinguishes this nature-focused project from the church’s historical milestones. This can help you choose Veshki based on whether you would rather explore local church and architectural history or a nature theme still taking shape.
