Day 2 in Moscow
























 I slept in today and visited the Kremlin Museum Complex 10:00 am. It was an ancient city and citadel, the former residence of Russian Tsars and Soviet rulers. Unfortunately, more than half of the area is inaccessible to the public. I only got the tickets for the Cathedral square, but not the Armoury Collection of royal clothing and chariots, or the Diamond Fund.  Two cathedrals were open. �The Assumption Cathedral (1479) was the main place of worship for Moscow, and the place of coronation for all the Tsars. The gilded Cathedral of the Annunciation was a domestic royal church.

I strolled via the decorative Gum department store next to the Red Square. 

In the afternoon, I saw the worldwide collection of the Pushkin Museum in the afternoon. On the evening, my classmate and his wife took me to a grill restaurant. I walked back to the hostel to see the night views of Moscow.
