Long ago, Sokolniki, which is now a huge park in the northeast of Moscow, were dense woods in the Moscow suburbs. In the 15th century, this forest land became the venue for grand-ducal falconry, which was especially popular among Russian nobles during the rule of Aleksey Mikhailovich. As legend has it, the Tsar had a falcon (Russian: "sokol") named Shiryay, which fell to its death during a hunt. Consequently, the Shiryaevo Field, Shiryaevskaya streets and Shiryaevsky passages were named after that very bird. This hunting place has been referred to as Sokolniki ever since.

The revenue house at Ilyinka Street, 12, is one of the most unusual and beautiful buildings in Moscow. Until 2017 it was occupied by the former archive of the Soviet Communist Party, and any access there was limited. Now the building houses the VIP office of Sberbank. However, this gorgeous operational room could be in a true palace instead of a bank. And the house situated so close to the Kremlin, surely has a long and rich history.
