Information and Maps
Russia has few tourist offices . Most travellers use the information desks at hotels and hostels, but the best resources are English-language newspapers, such as the Moscow Times (daily) or St Petersburg Times (twice weekly), and free quarterly magazines available at leading hotels. High-quality maps in English at very low prices are widely available from kiosks, street vendors and central department stores. Those maps most commonly found in the West are produced by Baedeker, Geocenter International and Falk, but often do not take account of streets which have reverted to their pre-Revolutionary names or of new metro lines.
