Walking Tour of Red Square & Metro

From the back roads of St. Barbara to the symbol of Russia - the Saint Basil Cathedral at Red Square to the eternal flame in Alexander Garden. Find out why the square is called "Red". Learn about the statue of Minin and Pozharsky - who they were and where did the monument stand before Stalin’s city “clean-up”. Who’s got the same exact monument? The Mausoleum of Lenin - whose body laid next to Lenin’s for several years and what happened to it? The State Department Store (GUM) - was closed only once in history - why? The clock at the Savior Tower - showing the most correct Moscow time, the History Museum, and Kazansky Cathedral. This excursion takes you from the oldest part of the city Kitai-Gorod through the most popular squares and side-streets.

In addition, this tour also takes you to Moscow’s underground – the busiest subway system in the world! You will see the oldest, the newest, the deepest and the busiest stations in Moscow’s metro.
