Moscow is a village in the Kottayam district of Kerala, South India. The name was instituted because of Soviet influence in that state during the Cold War. Located near Thengana, Moscow is easily accessible by bus and lies midway between Thiruvalla and Changanasseri. Initially a sleepy little hamlet, it has now developed into one of the suburbs of Chanaganasseri with all facilities including hospitals, schools (Good Shepherd School) and churches, all within walking distance. Kottayam, Changanasseri and Tiruvalla are the major towns nearby and the nearest railway station is Changanasseri.
