Red Square. The posters were part of a celebration of
the victory over the Germans in World War II.
A pretty Russian Orthodox church on the side of Red Square away from
St. Basil's.
The brick wall is the wall of the Kremlin.
I think that the building is the Parliament building, but I could
be wrong.
The story about the rock wall surmounting the Greek columns is that some
Russia leader (Peter the Great?) saw ancient ruins when
he toured Europe, and he became enamored of the concept of a modern
capital being built on the site of an ancient city. So he came up with
this fake arch so that he could make that claim.
One of the towers in the Kremlin wall.
This is a park area just off Red Square near their Tomb of the
Unknown Soldier(s).
There are a lot of kids wandering around on narrow paths in the garden.
