Red Square and Alexander Garden

Being in Moscow and not visiting Red Square is impossible. This is not only the center of our city, it is the heart of Russia.

Once it was an ordinary market square, and it was called - Trading. Between the wooden shops that traded various running goods, hawkers made - there was a brisk trade in hot cakes, children's whistles, lollipops. Wooden benches often burned, even the square changed its name - the Fire began to be nicknamed among Muscovites.

But under Ivan the Great, they decided to end the constant fires and did this.
