"VISITING THE KREMLIN" Kremlin Tip by stevemt

Visiting the Kremlin is a MUST. the history that is there is great. I was very lucky to have a personal guide for the tour. This made visiting the cathedrals and the armoury so much easier as there were many people there, most in parties, and many would have not heard their guides correctly or fully.

The Cathedrals in Cathedral Square were amazing. Mainly musem's now but still well worth a visit. The fresco work inside them is great, and its very interesting to see the tombs they contain and hear the stories behind them.

The Kremlin is a unique ensemble of art and history musems and architectural monuments of cathredral square. The musem's here house unique specimens of historical, cultural monuments and church art. In the armory one can see the richest collection of ancient weaponry, czars' and patriachs' regalia, jewellry, sliver, gold, faberge eggs and much much more

To enter the Kremlin is like going to the white house, metal detectors, bag searches, (and you are only allowed a very small bag and an umbrella).
