Moscow in the 17th of September 2006-Sunday! The new I-net resource has just opened. Kremlin
I strongly recommend to make a virtual visit to the Kremlin with this site.
We have never had an opportunity to visit the Great Kremlin Palace, Senate Palace, the working cabinet of the president... Now it's possible.
Unfortunately it's in russian but you'll manage navigation and you'll see great panoramas and unique pics! Come on!

| Moscow-The Kremin - The Ivan Veliky Tower |
|  | The architectural ensemble of the Cathedral Square in Kremlin developed in XV-XVI centuries. It is a unique monument of Russian history and culture when the uniform Russian state was created.
Buildings of secular and cult character are included into ensemble of the square.
The Cathedral of Assumption is the most ancient temple of the Kremlin. It was constructed on a traditional place where wooden and stone temples were situated in an antiquity.

| Moscow-The Kremin - The Uspensky Cathedral |
| | The Cathedral was built under the decree of Great Moscow prince Ivan III in 1479 by Italian architect and engineer Aristotel Fiorovanti. The architect repeated in the construction traditional forms of Russian temples (the prototype is in Vladimir). Thus he created an original construction which became a new word in the development of Russian architecture. Weddings on an empire and crowning of emperors took place there.
For the last eight centuries the Moscow Kremlin was the witness of many glorious and tragicevents of our history. There are explosions of hostile guns, celebration of holidays and boiling ofriots near the Kremlin walls. Now the Moscow Kremlin is one of the greatest museums of the world.The Kremlin palaces and chambers are keeping the state regalia, invaluable icons and treasures ofthe tsars.
