Every city has its famous landmark that serves as its symbol. For Moscow, nothing exudes the true Russian architecture than the Red Square. Don't be fooled by the name, for it's not even red and it's not even square.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If Beijing has the prominent Tiananmen Square and New York City has Times Square, Moscow has the famous Red Square.

Considered as a famous destination in Russia specifically in Moscow, Red Square consists of many legendary and notable buildings. Accordingly, one prominent buiding here is the Lenin’s Mausoleum, the place where the Vladimir Ilyich Lenin’s preserved body can be found. Vladimir Ilyich Lenin is a known and distinguished leader in Russia because he initiated the Soviet Union establishment.

Personally I find Mikhail Gorbachev more influential because he brought down the Soviet Union.
