History
Archaeological excavations indicate that near the Khimki channel there was a site of an ancient man. Events took their course, settlements arose and collapsed, two wars (1812 and 1945) took turns to demolish the village from the face of the earth. Only in 1960 did Tushino communicate with Moscow, the villages began to grow and a park was laid out here for people to relax. Later, the territory became part of Moscow, which greatly affected its attendance. Domestic cinema used this natural area to shoot episodes of films.
Since 1992, the territory was given the name "Park of Culture and Rest" Northern Tushino "." Since 2013, he was again waiting for the transformation. The territory of the park was combined with the museum and memorial complex of the history of the fleet, and several more small park zones were added to them. Now the park "Northern Tushino" has greatly increased in size and acquired historical significance.
