Red Square is a city square in Moscow, Russia. The buildings surrounding the Square are all significant: Nearby to the South is the elaborate brightly domed Saint Basil's Cathedral and the palaces and cathedrals of the Kremlin, Lenin's Mausoleum.

By invitation of Catherine the Great many foreigners came to settle in Moscow in the second half of the 18th century. French merchants settled around Kuznetsky Most and began to open boutiques in this street. There is a bronze plaque explaining that a monsiur x lodge at an apartment building there and later opened a confiserie at the shops bellow. Kuznetsky then become the place to shop for luxury and fashion by the beginning of the 19th century. Walking by this street, even with the seasonal Christmas decor, is like walking back in time to an elegant street of a cosmopolitan city two centuries ago.

The area to the east of the Kremlin was a traditional trading quarter. The oldest streets of Kitai-Gorod - Nikolskaya, Ilyinka, Varvarka - were known as early as the 14th century.

I always advise this place to the forein guest: "After the official view of Red Square come here to see the ancient history of Moscow". Just walk along and see. Tip: at the end of the steet step down to the subway (Metro) and look to the left just at the end of the stairway. You can see the basement of ancient "Varvarskaya tower" - the entrance to the Kitay-gorod and mystic place of ancient Moscow.

Built in the early 16th century, this stone platform was not the site of executions, but an area from which the Tsar's edicts and sentences for criminals were announced.

Nikolskaya street is a gem of Moscow which, in its turn, is one of the most beautiful cities in the world. For sure, in these dull and desolate Christmas covid days in Europe and USA this bustling and defiantly careless megapolis is a bright spot on the Northern Hemisphere's map. We were there yesterday - me, my wife, our two children, our daughter-in-law and our three grandchildren, a girl and two boys. Nikolskaya was crowded. Packed cafes and restaurants, street musicians, masqueraded millennials - angels and devils, knights, robots, ruffians, even slightly drunken Putin's lookalike! - what a contrast to despondent Western cities! We walked there, then progressed to the Red Square, then to the Manezhnaya square, then to Alexandrovskiy gardens, to watch change of guard by the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. Hordes of people. Moscow, I love you! You're forever young, glittering, resilient, fortitudinous, flamboyant and charming. Outta sight!
