Red square and more

Red Square runs parallel to the Kremlin.

The wall of the Kremlin is made of red bricks which gave the square its name.

At one end is the famous St Basil church.  It is now mainly a museum but is still used as a church once a month.The other two sides are flanked by chapels , and what was the Gum shopping complex. This had exclusive goods for the upper officers of the Party and government issued stuff for everyone else.

There was a zip line skier!
Zip line with a jump!

Goodbye Moscow
