Red Square

Today we had a chance to go to Red-Square. Its one of the most famous place to visit at Moscow. The metro stop is at Ohotny Ryad.
Okay.. Lets just let the picture do the talking..

The magnificent view of red buildings as soon as we got out from the Metro.

Museum at Red Square.

Great Wall of Moscow, Kremlin
The middle is the Red Square. On the left side is one of the most elegant shopping mall you can find around the world, the ГУМ (in English it would be pronounced as GOOM). On the right side is the Kremlin. At the middle end is the Saint Basil's Cathedral.

The left side view of the Kremlin. Can you see the star at the top of the tower? The star will shine in the night in red in colour. People said that there a big ruby stone in the middle of the star.

ГУМ

After snapping enough pictures of the Red Square, we went into ГУМ.

Inside view of the shopping mall. Looks not bad huh..





....?

LOL!

Okay, its time to leave Red Square.

Now we are going to the so called Eternal Flame by some friends. The place's name is actually the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. It is a war memorial, dedicated to the Soviet soldiers killed during the Great Patriotic War.

Theres the flame, at the middle. As you can see, there are flowers near the wall. Those are actually the flowers from newly weds, thanking dead soldiers for affording the opportunity to marry.

All the time there will be 2 soldiers guarding the square. One at the right, one at the left. We were lucky when we got there. We had a chance to see the soldiers changing shifts. Its was nice to watch, but I just forgot to take a video of it! =(

Thats all for today.
