The first destination that every tourist visits is of course, RED SQUARE.
I supposed it is called the RED SQUARE because of the numerous RED buildings and the RED Kremlin Walls?
The most recognisable Moscow landmark is located here at the RED SQUARE.
....which is...
St Basil's Cathedral
Close-up of St. Basil's
(For a small fee, you can enter the Cathedral....but we didn't)
Kazan Cathedral
Lenin's Mausoleum at the Kremlin Wall
(Entrance is FOC but queues were kinda long. Again, we didn't enter because we thought we would be in Moscow for two extra days...and was 'saving' till later
(Entrance Fee required) GUM Department Store(I think the architecture of this store is quite magnificent. More pictures in another post)

Bryan and Brandon's Mama - I think it would be simply magical in WINTER...all covered in snow. But then hor, would probably freeze our butts off!!
bp - Hiya. Hiya. Moscow was because it is one of the mid-way stops for SIA enroute to Houston. Otherwise, don't think we would come here on purpose too.
