The Red Square
So my boy who travels a lot couldn't stop gushing about a building in Moscow called the red square, so the red square is a city plaza which separates the kremlin formerly the Russian citadel with 5 Cathedrals standing as a monument but now the residence of the President of Russia from the kitay-gorod with a lot of Moscow's major streets branching out from the Red Square as well as major city highways and according to further research i have made, in ancient Russian history buildings had to be burnt down to make space fot the Red Square, thereby making the Red Square a monumental structure

What actually prompted me to research on this buulding was the architecture especially St. Basil's Cathedral this amazing architecture from the 14th to 17th century is why its so special, built by Russian and foreign architects

St. Basil's Cathedral is located to the South and apparently such architecture is linked to thr Russians and in my humble opinion is astonishing because I'm Nigerian and I'm yet to see any architecture as intricate as this one here seen from the Red Square here is a picture of St. Basil's Cathedral to the South of Red Square taken by Samuel Okolo IMG-20180930-WA0004-1-3.jpg

these domes are from the 14th to 17th Century and still this intricate enough to stand out even in modern day which is why to me they're really special

The Red Square is on my bucket list of tourist attractions in the world right now
2nd to Santorini, Greece of course! 😆😆
