RED SQUARE
One's first time setting foot on Red Square is a guaranteed awe-striker. The
vast rectangular stretch of cobblestones, surrounded by architectural mar-
vels, is jaw-dropping, gasp-inducing gorgeous. In old Russian krasny meant
'beautiful', and 'Krasnaya Ploshchad' lives up to its name. Further, it evokes
an incredible sense of import to stroll across the place where so much of
Russian history has unfolded.
