the kremlin

when you think of russia, what first comes to mind? well, apart from vodka and caviar?



kremlin! kremlin!

this is russia's intramuros!

i paid 350rubles to get to the kremlin area. you can see a total of 7 cathedrals. though presently you can only see five because 2 are under renovation.

we finished 4pm at the fair. and the kremlin closes at 5pm. so this is another speed sightseeing. here are my photos of the cathedrals:








this is the place for the religious! the insides of the cathedrals are overwhelmingly filled with centuries-old religious murals. captivating.

some of the buildings within the walled area:




for whom the giant broken bell tolls?


nice! i love moscow!

next goal: go backpacking in europe soon!
