About
The Kremlin is the heart of the city. It houses many government buildings, an open-air military exhibition, the Eternal Flame, the Arsenal contemporary art center, and an art museum with a significant collection. Be sure to climb the viewing platform of the Cathedral Bell Tower, visit the Mikhailo-Arkhangelsky Cathedral where the grave of Kuzma Minin is located, and above all, enjoy the stunning views of the Volga and Oka rivers. There are countless stories and legends about the Kremlin’s thirteen towers — from a girl buried alive in one of them, to the lost library of Ivan the Terrible, and even rumors that Leonardo da Vinci had a hand in the design of the 16th-century stone Kremlin.
