There is an Anton Chekhov museum fifteen kilometers away from Chekhov, in the village of Melikhovo. On the outskirts of Chekhov lies the Hermitage, reputedly the richest monastery in Russia. It contains many churches from the 17th and 18th centuries. Nearby Chekhov is the Russian General Staff wartime command post, buried deep underground, which is almost certainly linked directly to the Kremlin by an underground rail link - the 'Moscow Metro 2' line operated by the Russian Federal Security Service (FSB). |
