The Onions are still growing... (Moscow, Russia - 28/06)

The most famous onion towers are on top of the Saint Basil's Cathedrale in
Moscow. It is a beautiful Russian Orthodox church which was erected on the
Red Square in 1555-1561. The Cathedral was ordered by Ivan the Terrible to
mark the 1552 capture of Kazan from Mongol forces. The view from the Red
Square is amazing and the famous onions gave us even more the feeling that
we finally arrived in Russia.
