Russian word for post office

In addition to being places where stamps are bought and letters are sent, post offices in Russia also fulfill other functions. Among other things, they can be places where long-distance phone calls are placed, pension payments are received, and subscriptions to magazines and newspapers are accepted.

 

The blue box on the left-hand side of this picture is for letters to be deposited. The poster on the left-hand side is an advertisement for clothes from Europe, and the poster on the right-hand side is for Moscow's 850th anniversary, which took place in 1997.
