Vasiliya Blazhennovo Khram, Basilius Cathedral, is a landmark of the great Russian metropolis of Moscow. It is the cathedral in which the Holy Wassilij was buried and was built under the command of Muscovite Grand Duke, Ivan the Fourth. His nickname was Ivan the Terrible and he was the first Russian Tsar.

Moscow’s Red Square is probably the most famous square in the world but the name Red does not refer to blood, in Russian it means beautiful.

Resurrection Gate separates Red Square from Manege Square. Two passages lead through a twin tower and, in front, a zero marks each destination from Moscow.

The Facette Palace was the creation of Italian architect Fioravant. It was there that Russian history changed forever when the members of the Russian royal family were assassinated.

A symbiosis of both Church and State made the creation of Russia possible and the Kremlin has always been at its very heart!
