Name Origin
The Rostov embankment got its name in the 19th century from the Rostov settlement, which arose in the 15th-16th centuries near the compound of the Rostov bishops. In the XVII century, the Blagoveshchenskaya, or Berezhkovskaya, settlement of the Rostov Metropolitan, named after the Church of the Annunciation of the Most Holy Theotokos on Berezhki , built in the Rostov settlement in 1412 and destroyed in the 1950s, was located on this territory. At the end of the XIX century, part of the embankment from the Borodino bridge was called Mukhin Street and Mukhina Gora (the name of the high bank of the Moscow River) [1] .

From the south, after crossing the 1st Vrazhsky Lane , Rostov Embankment passes into Savvinskaya . The pedestrian bridge of Bogdan Khmelnitsky connects Rostov embankment with Berezhkovskaya .
