Teave
Kiired faktid: Stretching 330 meters along the Kremlin's eastern wall, this plaza has witnessed everything from imperial parades to Soviet military displays. The name comes from the Russian word for "beautiful" or "red," not from the color of the nearby buildings.
Esiletõstmised: Look down at the cobblestones: they're actually made of Crimean diabase, a volcanic rock that shines like wet leather after rain. Lenin's mausoleum doubles as a VIP viewing stand during military parades, with the general secretary once standing atop Lenin's tomb to review the troops.
Sisekujunduse nõuanded
- Arrive at 9:30 AM on a weekday to walk past the Lenin's Mausoleum queue before it swells to 2-hour waits by noon.
- The best photo spot is from the corner of Nikolskaya Street, where you can frame Saint Basil's with the red brick of the State Historical Museum.
- Skip the overpriced souvenir stalls right on the square; walk 2 minutes to GUM department store's basement for cheaper snacks and postcards.
- Dress in layers even in summer; the open plaza channels strong winds that can drop temperatures by 10 degrees in minutes.

Kas oled kuulnud tasuta jalutuskäikudest?
Pärast reisimist üle 30 riigi on üks asi, mida sooviksin, et keegi oleks mulle esimesest päevast peale öelnud, ja see muutis täielikult minu linnakogemust.
Tasuta jalutuskäigud. Jah, tõesti tasuta. Kaarti ei ole vaja. Püüniseid pole.
Kohalik giid, 2-3 tundi
Peamised vaatamisväärsused, peidetud pärlid, kohalikud lood
100% jootraha põhine
Giidid teenivad ainult jootraha, seega annavad nad parima
Sa annad jootraha nii palju kui tunned õigeks
Lõpus annad lihtsalt jootraha nii palju kui tunned õigeks
Olen neid teinud paljudes linnades ja need on olnud peaaegu iga reisi tipphetk. Kui külastad Moscow, Russia, tee seda esimesel päeval. Sa tänad mind hiljem.
