Russia launches train from Moscow to French Riviera
- 14 years ago
A new luxury train began running on Thursday between Moscow and Nice in the south of France, in a flashback to the tsarist times when Russian aristocrats flocked to the French Riviera. The Russian Railways-operated train will depart from Moscow's Belorussky station every Thursday afternoon, and arrive in Nice 53 hours later after passing through European capitals including Warsaw and Vienna. A business class ticket will set you back 1000 euros.Duration: 01:42
