Travel-diary: Red Square, Moscow

Hello from Moscow!

It’s been raining a lot when we arrived, unfortunately we chose a damp, drizzly and cold summer day to go to Red Square at the heart of the city.

BUT it was pretty much worth it.

80% of the architecture here have that Turkish/Middle Eastern influence, or perhaps it is the other way round.

  1. I’m sorry, but there’s no turkish or middle eastern influences on the architecture. It’s true russian architecture with a little influence of byzantine architecture.
