Hello!
Today we made a remarkable trip to the Swamp area on the Red Square.
Swamp area is now a favorite venue for meetings of dissent with the current government in Russia. the last goal there are often held meetings, and before that was a favorite place of the newlyweds. On the bridge across the Moscow River installed metal trees. Newlyweds come here on their wedding day, that would hang the door. The keys are thrown into the river. Triss said that one of the trees hanging castle, which she hung from her husband, but look for it, we did not.
Then we went to the Red Square. Red - means beautiful. To the west of it is the Moscow Kremlin, to the east - Upper (GUM) and the average shopping mall, to the north - the Historical Museum and the Kazan Cathedral, to the south - Cathedral of the Intercession (St. Basil).
The total area of the Red Square is 23 100m ², length - 300 meters, width - 70 meters.
In the area located the place of execution, the monument to Minin and Pozharsky, the Lenin Mausoleum, next to which the Kremlin wall necropolis, where the buried workers (mostly political and military) of the Soviet State (also in 1920-30-e years there buried as foreign Communists).
On Red Square, we went to the GUM (main department store) where a hot air balloon ride. That is such a wonderful trip.
