| MOSCOW is the city to be visited. It is one of the most ancient and most mesmerising cities in the world. Moscow can boast a long and enthralling history. The city has been completely destroyed and rebuilt anew several times throughout the years. Each time Moscow was resurrected from ruins, it got additional and additional gorgeous. For every rebuilding, the most gifted and renowned architects were invited from all over the world to restore Moscow. Hence, Moscow tourist attractions are truly well worth exploring. These days Moscow is the city where the past and the present live side by side in mutual tolerance and respect. Nearby ancient convents and cathedrals, there tower above ultramodern shopping malls and skyscrapers. But, originally, Moscow is the very centre of Russia's history. Red Square is the most renowned city square in Moscow and, arguably, one of the most famous in the world. The square separates the Kremlin, which used to be the royal citadel and is nowadays the official residence of the President of Russia, from a historic merchant area called Kitai-gorod. Since the principal streets of Moscow radiate from here in all directions, Red Square is usually considered the central square of Moscow and of the country. Resurrection Gate is known as the only existing gate of the Kitai-gorod in Moscow. It connects the north-western end of Red Square with Manege Square and gives its name to nearby Voskresenskaya Square (differently called Resurrection Square). Alexander Garden is one of Moscow's first public parks. It spans along the western Kremlin wall in front of the Moscow Manege. The State Historical Museum of Russia is wedged between Red Square and Manege Square. There are exhibitions of relics of the prehistoric tribes that live on the territory of present-day Russia as well as extremely valuable masterpieces of art obtained by the Romanov family. The total number of items in the museum's collection averages out at millions. Moscow is said to exhaust you before you exhaust its possibilities.
