The Red Square in Moscow contains some of the most iconic landmarks in the entire country. These are some of the sights that you cannot miss on your visit.
St. Basil’s Cathedral
St. Basil’s Cathedral is one of the most iconic sights in Russia. The colorful domes have stood since 1561 and are a symbol of the country worldwide.
The Kremlin
The Kremlin is a beautiful sight to behold. Although its history and politics are less than popular, the Kremlin’s complexes are stunning sights to appreciate.
Voskresensky Gates
There are multiple ways to enter the Red Square, but one of the most memorable is through the Voskrensensky gates.
State Historical Museum
Arguably the best place to learn about the history of Moscow is at the State Historical Museum. It is best to visit once you have already experienced the beauty of Red Square firsthand.
Kazan Cathedral
Kazan Cathedral may not be the largest or most spectacular in the Red Square, but it’s certainly still worth a visit for its architectural charm.
Moskva River
Step onto Bolshoy Moskvoretskiy Bridge, which crosses the Moskva River, for a stunning view of the Red Square. It’s a wonderful place to have an evening walk.
