Christmas Enchantment in Moscow

Dear friends,

LoveMoscow wishes you a very happy New Year! :)

I walked just a little around the Kremlin to celebrate, and here's my photoreport.

Moscow just took my breath away. As Mr. J.B. Priestley put it, "if this is not enchantment then where is it to be found?" Perfectly true. Enjoy!

This is Nikolskaya Tower of the Moscow Kremlin. My favourite!



And respectively Nikolskaya Street.



Manezhnaya Square



And the many Ded Morozes (literally, Father Frost, the Russian equivalent of Santa Claus) with multiple Snegurochkas, their fairytale granddaughters.


The Bolshoi Theather



Teatralnaya, or Theater, Square


The Metropol Hotel, a distinguished art-noveau materpiece



The remains of the old Kitay-gorod wall (for more on this, see http://lovemsc.blogspot.com/2013/12/the-city-logic-finding-your-way-around.html)





Lots of love and more travel this year :)
