Moscow, UI's home town, is located in
northern Idaho between Moscow Mountain and the beautiful undulating hills
of the Palouse. With a small town friendliness and safety, Moscow is also
a great location for higher education, being home to the University of
Idaho and with Washington State University just across the state line.
Moscow is the "Heart of the Arts"--with an annual Jazz Festival, live
music on the town, the Rendezvous in the Park, Renaissance Fair, Mardi
Gras, and excellent theater year round. Moscow and nearby Pullman, home of
Washington State University, offer dozens of movie screens showing
recent and classic films.
Moscow is also a great place for those who love
the outdoors. Camping, mountain biking, snowmobiling, fishing and skiing
abound, with some of the best big game and upland game hunting in the
world located nearby.
