The Kremlin is the original defensive center of the city.
The entrance fee into The Kremlin is quite confusing. Fortunately, we had a Polish tour guide who spoke English and Russian in the queue in front of us - and she helped us to purchase the ticket. There are different ticket categories but we paid 750 Rubles/pax to enter The Armory (Tsars' Regalia, Carriages, Faberge Eggs etc) and another 350 Rubles/pax to walk-around the place and to enter the numerous Cathedrals (I think there is a cheaper ticket if you just wanna walk-around and NOT enter the Cathedrals). No access to The Senate and The Presidium is accorded to tourists as they are working areas (The Parliament).
The Kremlin Cathedrals can be seen from afar

Cathedrals inside The Kremlin
(The Cathedral of the Archangel, The Cathedral of the Annunciation, Cathedral of the Dormition, Church of the Twelve Apostles, Church of the Deposition of the Robe.... don't ask me which is which. I also confuse)
