Located at the heart of Moscow, Red Square offers easy access to most of the city's major attractions. Surrounded by landmark buildings representative of Moscow's rich architectural heritage, the vast square is the first destination for most visitors to the city. Its name comes not from the color of the cobbles or its link to communist history, but from one interpretation of the Russian word "krasniy," meaning "beautiful." Most of the city's major streets originate from this square, but the majority of tourists come to this World Heritage Site to take pictures and visit the surrounding buildings, including a mausoleum housing the embalmed body of Vladimir Lenin. Use Inspirock's suggestions to plan your Moscow trip and find the best activities and attractions for your vacation.

Great Red Square! I suggest you visit St. Basil (more interesting outside than inside, in my opinion); the Natural State Museum is nothing of that; extremely interesting, Lenin's Mausoleum, the Kremlin Necropolis and THE GUM warehousesView original -

The history of our great country. If you even before the visit read the story of walking will be more interesting and informative. There are a lot of events at different times of the year. Always a lot of people.View original -
なんといってもモスクワ観光の中心地でしょう。 世界中からのおのぼりさんでいつも混雑しています。 レーニン廟、グム百貨店、ワシリー聖堂など 写真撮影のネタになる場所もいっぱいです。 more »
After all, it is the center of Moscow tourism. It is always crowded with streamers from all over the world. There are many places to take photos, such as Lenin Pass, Gum Department Store, and Vasilly Cathedral.View original

One of the most beautiful places. The impressive Red Square with its monumental buildings and fine architecture is the main attraction in Moscow and your starting and ending point to explore some of the other great places to visit . Worth visiting in the early hours of the morning and also at night to enjoy the lights flashing on the main buildings.

The Beautiful Square (mistranslated as red). The most recognizable place in Moscow. Beautiful St Basil cathedral, great Wall of Kremlin, fantastic architecture all around and thousands of tourists. Cannot be missed any time you visit Moscow.

You can't visit Moscow and not go to the red square. There's the St Basil's church, the beautiful mall, and the little side street with faerie lights. Visit it at night too, its gorgeous

Have to be here, preferably in summer 😂 otherwise very well dressed. You can actually feel the history. A must and apparently a lot of Chinese tourists agree with me 😉.
