Located in the heart of the Red Square, this shopping mall offers luxury clothing/lifestyle brands.It also has a movie theatre and a ice skating ring if you need some recreational timeout!The mall itself is a very pleasant walk as the ceiling is a highlight for many!The mall is usually decorated and highlighted with lights making it very alluring, specially at night with the lights highlighting the façade of the building.A must visit while you are at Red Square!
Visited here in September, 2014.This department store is located adjacent to the Red Square, which is why its been always crowded with tourists. Also you can see many gift shops inside, so it will be pretty easy to buy something or whatever you wanna buy as Russian souvenirs. The thing I noticed is that this department store has lots of cheap restaurants inside. The red square is literally the center of Russia, meaning tenant fee would be highly expensive though it is my guess, and I was so grateful for chances to have cheap meals here. But of course, the majority of shops inside is luxurious ones.
Well, one can spend a week In GUM and always want to get back. First of all you go to GUM because you have all high end brands there. Second you go there because it is an architectural masterpiece, third you go there because of it’s location. It is on the Red Square. Fourth you have a beautiful small restaurants where you can have a delicious meal and excellent service. As my followers could see fromthis blog I’m a globe trotter. I have been fromChina to United States, Dubai and Sardinia, France and Switzerland, Georgia and Armenia, but my dears I want to underline that there is one ☝️ city in the world which has THE SERVICE EVERYWHERE is Moscow. Period.
It is an amazing place with great atmosphere. The shopping experience was great, the variety of the different boutiques makes the shopping experience easier and enjoyable. You have to try their famous ice cream and gelato that can be found all over the mall, the information desk is really helpful they can speak English and are ready to help you. money exchange service is available in the mall. The washrooms are also clean, there is a fee for using the washroom which is a great idea .
This architecture building so wonderful its classy im in love with gum. Its very classical building so many tenants in here. Inside the mall the have fountain in every corner they have chair that you can sit down and eat some famous ice cream gum. This ice cream vey famous and has many flavors the price of ice cream its moderate. If come to gum don’t forget to buy ice cream.
This 242-meter-long department store was built between 1890 and 1893. After the Russian Revolution in 1917, the business was nationalized and in 1928 the premises were used as offices. In 1953, an extensive renovation was carried out and the department store business resurfaced. Today there are almost 200 stores here.GUM is open daily from 10:00 to 22:00.GUM is incredibly impressive and a must visit even if you do not want to shop.
Some call it the epitome of Russian Shopping experience, some describe it as a fairytale.The GUM department store is located in the center of Moscow, directly on Red Square. It is a department store with over 100 years of tradition, which is now known as a high-end shopping mall; on three floors, the customer will find over 200 exclusive stores, mainly international designers are represented. The number of visitors is estimated at about 30,000 per day (!!!). The opulent, marble-clad neoclassical architecture makes the building an interesting destination even for less affluent visitors.
This is a kind of gallery Lafayette on The Red Square. Very impressive high end shopping mall.Once you have passed through security, you are faced with an amazing choice of shops. You will find all posh fashion brands here. The ones which melt the plastic of your credit card are situated on the ground floor. Prices 30% more expensive compared to European stores. Even if you don’t buy anything you will enjoy the experience.Surprisingly for a fancy shopping mall, GUM has several affordable options. Such as the old-school traditional Soviet ice-cream near the beautiful fountain in the heart of the building.Using the toilet costs a mere 100 Rubles for which you got Immaculately clean and warm facilities.
Excellent shopping experience
Nice building, but extremely quiet during my visit. Corona restrictions @ work?
Nice place to visit. The famous ice-cream available in many entrance. Dont need queue up just only at the main one and actually the taste is so so. Toilets are difficult to find.
Something we dont get to see in western department stores.A place with history...
Prices too high for regular shopping but its mixture of Soviet Ampire and modern styles is quite endearing
My fav place so far
Its the largest mall and everything inside it it is really expensive. But you need to try the ice-cream inside its superb. And also you need to pay 100-200 rub to take a leak inside the mall. Its located on the red square. Visit red square in the night its really great. Also you can get some awesome clicks. One of the interface is from the street where it is covered from lights all over. Have fun.
This is the place you came to experience some festive atmosphere. I come for Christmas, spring and autumn vibes. Make sure you’ve tried GUM ice cream not the BOSCO one, but the common (~100rub/each). It used to be much bigger, however the flavor remain the same. Most of the flavors are good except for the melon.
Great place to stop by after visiting red square. Actually, its not so special...but it offers uniqueness, lets say about the fountain. You will find the long queue for ice cream
Things must know!1. Must try is an original ice-cream2. Toilet is 50rub3. Free toilet is in food court on3rd floor4. Asian-Chinese food court is on 3rd floor
Structure built between 1880 and 1883 just in front of the KremlinToday GUM department stores with many luxury brandsThe fountain, this is the central place where everyone meets, beautifully decorated for every season and always full of people for selfies.Many brand shops, cozy cafes and Soviet ice cream in pods. There is always a big queue near this stand. Also there are actions and entertainment for visitors.Recommend. Definitely you should go if youre in Moscow.
Beautiful and luxurious shopping mall with the best ambiance possible. Long floors with all the top brands at your disposal, GUM is a must visit. The cafe’s are well designed and compliment the mall. The stunning cherry blossom trees and fountain just add to the awe of the place. Visit GUM for the sheer class it posses and be ready to be awestruck.
I love Russia its different ...and a magnificent city to be....ST Perterburg and Moscow is a favorite..hoping i can see again in the coming future
Great authentic auf prestigious shopping mall! A lot of expensive and western brands mixed within local goodies, ice cream salons, wine and food stores.This mall is a jewel within the Moscow center of Moscow, must see.I recommend to check out the food store, it reminds me of the one at Harrods in London.
One of the attractions on Red Square. This is not just a Mall, it is a history. As per one of the local guides, this building was built in 16th century to be a market Mall..We loved the mall.. simple and elegant 😌..Dont miss the GUM ice cream. the kiosks are scattered all over the mall..
I like how they decorate their mall.. so beautiful.The Ice cream is good.And I love a food on the 3rd floor.. many food, many choices and not expensive. nice seat to sit and eating.
This shopping mall sells luxury product, the supermarket provides various type and brand of food and drinks, including fresh food and souvenirs, price are little bit higher, overall quite good!
Awesome shopping mall. Beautiful place just to stroll, shop or grab a bite !!
This is the Mall very everything happens live events, shows, new movies, product launch, discounts, Entertainment etc.. man you name them you cannot stop especially the food here is just amazing multiple stores for options which you have never dreamt of if you are at the Kremlin square please be sure to visit here you will truly love it...
This is one of these places that even if you have no interest in shopping, you should at least walk through briefly. It’s amazingly beautiful and their floral displays rival the Bellagio in Las Vegas. They call it a “department store” but it seems to be more of a mall with many stores from brand you are probably familiar with and many small cafes, etc. They do have metal detectors at each entrance but only seem to do “selective” security screening as do many places in Russia.
Huge historic mall with lots of shops. Its a must visit even if you dont want to shop. The quality of building and decoration, both at day and night, is stunning.
Spectacular but expensive place. Youll find everything here: top brands, beautiful store fronts, exclusive cafes, and legendary ice-cream. This department store is conveniently situated between the subway exit and the Red square, so you can take a stroll through on your way to or from the Kremlin sightseeing. Be prepared to dish out quite more than the average sums of money if you decide to shop here, as the place caters to tourists and wealthy locals. One of the few affordable things is the ice-cream (~$1.5 USD), which has a number of flavours and a long standing history of being offered at GUM.
Great mall! The top priced brands are in there. A must if you are in Moscow
Historically a warehouse turned into a high end department store. Its really big and needs time to shop. Beautiful. A must see. Wed a buffet at the GUM.
Russian version of London “Harrods”But 10 times largerStunning architecture and interior designMust visit !
Gum is one of the prominent malls in Moscow and located in the heart of Red square. The mall looks vibrant and aesthetically beautiful from inside. One thing which reminds me the most of it is fantastic ice creams stalls around the corners of the mall. They are awesome in taste and costs 100 rubles. It attracts many visitors cravings for yummy softies. The mall has apparels stores, electronics on its top floor, food courts, supermarkets, and cafes. One of the most expensive and tax-free malls in Moscow. Toilets charge 50 rubles and the most expensive toilet service is costing 150 rubles approx.
Great mall indoor with an indoor outdoors feel. This is a 3 level mall filled with high end brands as well as cafes restaurants and kiosks selling traditional treats with a twist. From ice cream to soda these bring back some favorite Russia or Soviet treats in a new way. A great way to spend an extra cooks day I Moscow. Definitely must see.
GUM is largest and situated in the most famous red square in Moscow. It’s an architecture landmark and a must visit to eat the famous icecream!There’s over 100 international brand and local Russian brand here. You will love shopping as the staffs are all friendly and do not push you to purchase. Definitely recommended
Nice place to stop by and relax for an ice cream!! I would recommend the Pistachio!
Best place in Europe for New Year holidays, plenty of entertainment and great shopping 🛍
Honestly speaking, I need to admit that that place is super fantastic and looks like a fairytale . Super clean and attractive
Huge place!
Im really impressed. Its classy. Im from Australia.
Dear friends, its very good location.
Beautiful but useless and overpriced. Also very crowded place. But ice-cream is very much recommended.
Nice Mall. Very busy, but doesnt seem like many people are shopping. Most people seem to be walking around. Its warm inside. Was a very cold day when we visited.
The biggest mall in the red square, Moscow. It has a very elegant look, with the rich culture reflecting in the architecture. You can find almost everything in here, although it is a bit expensive, you can find the world renounced branded items . From daily groceries to beverages costing 3 million, the list goes on. But if you visit the Kremlin, never forget to take a look at this marvelous structure.
The GUM mall is a beautiful place with unique design and climate. Food services at the top level seems overpriced but in the end this is strict city center.I believe that it is great place to visit after seeing the Red Square as it is a very characteristic and interesting place.When I visited some watermelons were placed in the main fountain. I have no idea why.
A beautiful spot in Moscow.There are some tips.- Buy Ice cream at the trolley near the fountain, this branch is fresher than others which are located near the exits. 100 RUB/Scoop- 50 RUB for toilet- A restaurant on the top floor is a good choice for a reasonable price
Very beautiful. Winter decorations are the best and dont forget to try the ice-cream from the stalls inside.
Wonderfully decorated during Christmas season, but also during the whole year. Everytime Im in Moscow I try to get to see GUM. Their ice cream (GUM not Bosco Cafe) is worth a try.
Great place to be next to Red Square.Marvellous by spring where sun is illuminating by skyline roof.I loved it
An upscale market place with beautifully done Interiors and all the Iconic brands..
The place is amazing. Extremely expensive - but in the heart of the red square. It has unique things, especially the ice cream stands, and in the supermarket located inside you can find special stuff like chocolate and cheese. But don’t buy anything until comparing prices with the stands usually located in the red square
Amazing shopping mall, big and with great variety of shops. Mostly high standard brands. Christmas was greatly decorated with a tree sponsored by almost every shop and decorated with their products or specialties, which was a nice sight. The roof is amazing and give nice pictures! A must see when in Moscow!
Absolutely must-see of Moscow resembles Italian fashionable old shopping galleries.Buy russian morozhenoe (ice cream) and take a seat on one of many benches under artificial trees or just wander around and enjoy the unique atmosphere of this place.
Fascinating and satisfyingly arrogant 👌
Gum is epitome of luxury in Moscow. It is magnificent, opulent and massive. There are top clothing brands, top perfumery and highbrow restaurants and other top places. The interior is magical, extremely beautiful.The crossing bridge and the transparent roof is something one has to see. I will always recommend this place for tourists.
Nice area .. amazing lighting street
Big nice shop in the center. Look like museum
Fancy place, nice to walk around. Full of classy brands. Also has these funny historical expositions and icecream :D
Very expensive.
Great moll with good brands. In all entrances you can find a small place selling ice creams, is amazing that almost everybody buy it. Big space, with 3 floors, at least one fountain, make the perfect place to spend some time shopping.
Marvelous place but for rich people, nice fresh icecream
You can go shopping here if you have plenty of money or just come to enjoy the best ice-cream of Soviet time. Welcome Back to the USSR
Stunning mall catering more for the tourist. Must see if youre in Red Square. May take time to get into due to crowds in certain periods as its a bit of a tourist attraction in its own right.
The mall is beautiful and has vintage vibes. I would suggest visiting it only if you’re planning to visit the Red Square.The mall mainly comprises of high-end shops and boutiques and unless that’s what you’re looking for, there’s nothing more to enrich your shopping experience.
Great place to warm up, browse through the windows and use the restrooms. There are some nice places to chill and have a bite on the third level and the Mall still has historic restrooms (150Rub to use).
The facade extends for 242m along the eastern side of Red Square, it was built between 1890 and 1893. The GUM became one of the few stores in the Soviet Union that did not have shortages of consumer goods. Nowadays houses premier and exclusive brands, making it a very expensive mall.
Clean toilet, and fantastic ice-cream, tea and coffee inside. Too expensive for branded goods compares to Western Europe.
Spectacular but expensive place. Youll find everything here: top brands, beautiful store fronts, exclusive cafes, and legendary ice-cream. This department store is conveniently situated between the subway exit and the Red square, so you can take a stroll through on your way to or from the Kremlin sightseeing.

Dreamy place with numerous shopping options, powerful retail shops, fancy restaurants and coffee shops. Highly recommended for everyone, it s right on the centre of the famous Red Square
Generally, the store continues an expensive range of shops, but the highlight is the glass roofed pedestrian walkway running the whole length of the store through the middle which contains small stalls and brightly coloured artificial trees.There are some good cheap eating places on the top floor at the far right hand end when you look at the store front from Red Square.
Thats GUM baby! You can even have a toilet (historical toilet) tour here! A must visit place in Moscow.
Best place for window shopping. If you go there you must buy an old style ice cream, so delicious.
Large shopping mall facing Red Square. beautifully decorated for christmas at the time i visited. I came here to try ice-cream. many brandname shops.
Hello my friends,I was not there but i tink there is wery beautivul (sory fur my englisch but i am germany). I will visit teh place and buy there a fake gucci t-shirt for 5€.And than i will eat a pizza from McDonalds. See you in 5 yers when the korona is Over.

GUM(ГУМ).This is a modern shopping mall located in the Red Square area, Moscow.The Gum word is an abbrev. of Glávnyj Universáľnyj Magazín, or Main Universal Store used to be State-owned Department Store until 1991. Now become a modern shopping mall with most of the products are branded from all over the world. This is what makes this place so special a modern store in the old and antique building.The security procedure to the entrance is quite tight, before entering the store, you have to pass the security gate and have to show the inside of your bag.Therere rows of branded boutiques on all the floors, restaurants, cafes, book stores, jewelry, fashion, etcThen a lot of restaurants, bars, and cafes.My favorite thing in this place is a Supermarket on the Ground Floor, so nice, good decorated and fresh nuance.One suggestion for you:Make sure to try a traditional ice cream which sale in the entrance door. Toilet available on the 3rd floor and ticket is 50Ruble.
Loved the unexpected of having a excellent shopping in front of the Kremlin!!The building is fabulous!! By daylight has great shops and you can be there all afternoon, or have lunch at the cantina .... By night it has a different magic. It’s all illuminated... beautiful!!! Soo don’t missed by night!!
Gum is the best of the best on this planet. You can always see Chinese buying ice-cream like crazy.
