THE KREMLIN

:

The history of Moscow Kremlin

Moscow has rich and interesting history.

I advise you to begin sightseeing

of Moscow with the Kremlin.

Moscow was founded by Yury Dolgoruky and

it was first mentioned in the chronicle in 1147.

At first under Ivan Kalita the city was encircled

by oak logs.

In 1365 Prince Dolgoruky ordered to build them

of white stone and only then the walls were

built of red brick, as we can see them today.

By the15th century Moscow had become an

important city and

Ivan III invited Italian architects to

build new cathedrals. Since then

Moscow became the capital of the

united state of Russia.

There are 21 towers in the Kremlin, everybody knows Spasskaya Tower with

a star on the peak and the clock known as Kuranty. The tallest is Troitskaya Tower, it is 81 metres tall.

The oldest one is Taininskaya Tower which has an underground passage to the Moskva-river.

Kutaphya Tower is the lowest tower in the Kremlin.

The walls of the Kremlin are 2,235 metres long and 5-12 metres high.

The main square in the Kremlin is Cathedral Square with three grand cathedrals and

Ivan the Great Bell Tower.

Assumption Cathedral was the burial place of Russian tsars.

The heart of Moscow is Red Square where we can see Mausoleum

and St. Basil ’ s Cathedral with its seven domes, each of different colour.

Now Moscow is being reconstructed and it will become more beautiful and interesting.
