Lonely Planet review for Mars Field

Once the scene of 19th-century military parades, the grassy Mars Field lies immediately east of the Summer Garden (south of Troitsky most). Formerly known as the Tsarina’s Meadow (Tsaritsyn lug), it’s a popular spot for strollers. At its centre, an eternal flame burns for the victims of the 1917 revolution and the ensuing civil war. Don’t take a short cut across the grass – you may be walking on the graves of the victims or of later communist luminaries also buried here.
