Tour of Red Square
During an incredibly exciting and eventful excursion program, you will travel to a settlement on Borovitsky Hill, which has existed there since time immemorial. So old that scientists are still arguing about who “authored” the first fortress in the settlement: Prince Yu. Dolgoruky himself or his son Andrei.
The square itself, where we now have the opportunity to walk, was founded in 1492. It was then that a decree was issued prohibiting construction in the immediate vicinity of the Kremlin wall. But our guide will tell you who the author of this decree was and what goals he pursued!
In addition, during a walk with a guide, you will learn all the secrets of the history of the construction of all the towers and walls of the Kremlin. We will visit a huge number of monuments and tell the fascinating stories of their appearance.
