Moscow Red Square

Red Square is a historic and central plaza in Moscow, Russia, serving as a symbol of the nation’s political and cultural heritage. Surrounded by significant landmarks like the colorful Saint Basil’s Cathedral, the imposing Kremlin walls, and Lenin’s Mausoleum, it has hosted important events, parades, and gatherings for centuries. Its name derives from the Russian word "krasnyi," meaning "beautiful," rather than the color red. Today, Red Square is a UNESCO World Heritage site and a popular destination for visitors, representing Russia’s history, architecture, and national identity.
