THE KREMLIN
The apex of Russian political power and once the centre of the Orthodox
Church, the Kremlin is the kernel not only of Moscow but of the whole coun-
try. It's from here autocratic tsars, communist dictators and modern-day pres-
idents have done their best - and worst - for Russia. These red-brick walls
and tent-roof towers enclose some 800 years of artistic accomplishment, reli-
gious ceremony and political power.
