Majestic & Magnificent Megapolis: Moscow

With affordable airline (Aeroflot) tickets, a quick online visa (5-6 days) process, a rublerupee conversion (1 Russian Ruble equals 0.92 INR) that is at par with each other, cool climes, great food and nightlife, lots of shopping and easy access to some of the world's top heritage sites, Moscow could be just the right place for your next dream holiday. It's extremely safe to travel and is already seeing a rise in the number of footfalls of avid travelers from around the world.

Kremlin and Red Square

What better place than Kremlin and Red Square, the cultural, economic and political center of Russia to kickstart my Moscow tour. The Kremlin has always been the power center of Russia. But that's not what I'm talking about today. I was simply awestruck by the stunning beauty of this medieval city-fortress with five palaces and a few cathedrals inside that is today the residence of the Russian President.

The Moscow Kremlin and Red Square, the Church of the Ascension in Kolomenskoye and the Novodevichy Convent are on the UNESCO World Heritage List. Russia's most valuable treasures can be seen in the Armoury Chamber of the Moscow Kremlin. You can also visit the Assumption Cathedral, the coronation church Cathedral square of the Moscow Kremlin built in 15th century, as the place of coronation of Russian princes and tsars.

St. Basil's Cathedral
