The Kremlin

Our bus stopped across the Moscow River for our first look at the Kremlin. Many Americans think the Kremlin is one building but it's not. The red brick Kremlin wall was first built in (I think) the 12th century. Several acres of land are enclosed by the wall and within it are four churches, at least three palaces, an armory and several government buildings built during different eras. What you can see here are the main government building (the flag flying shows that President Putin was in residence) and the Ivan the Great Bell Tower on the right. I think that is the Church of the Assumption between them.
