The known cathedrals that compose the Kremlin compound are Cathedral Square, Assumption Cathedral, the Cathedral of the Archangel Michael, the Cathedral of the Annunciation, the Cathedral of the Twelve Apostles, and the St. Basil Cathedral. Among these cathedrals, though they are all beautiful, aesthetically, the Cathedral Square speaks about the historic events on Russia because the Cathedral Square is the political and religious focal point of Russia where most coronations were held; assemblies of all the nobilities or the nobles of the land get together in it, and other ceremonies and rituals both religious and political ceremony or rituals were held on it. The Cathedral square was also a former symbol or icon of tsarist rule then.
But aside from the Cathedral Square as the main tourist attraction at the Kremlin compound, there is a tourist attraction at the Kremlin that dominates the entire Kremlin because of its very tall stature. I am talking about the Ivan The Great Bell Tower. Yap it is one of the tallest or rather the tallest structure on the Kremlin as well in Russia, soaring with the height of eighty meters made of white stone with a gleaming gilt dome on top. Wow that is something to behold to on the Kremlin compound!

Visiting the Kremlin
The Kremlin is one of the great tourist attractions one could visit of if one is a tourist adventurer; however the Kremlin is not your typical tourist place where you could visit anytime you like.
I know you have heard the place called Kremlin, don’t you? Of course, though it is a Russia‘s Office compound for its Government departments, Kremlin is still one of the places tourists mostly visit. Yap, the Kremlin, as you already knew it; it is one of Russia’s tourist attractions that generate tourism income or revenue, of course from the tourist. There is no need to explain how Russia benefitted from Kremlin, it is well understood that if a place is a tourist attraction, there could be an entrance payments, tourist buying souvenirs, and other a lot of expenses a tourist spent just to enjoy his or her adventure on the place which of course the tourist place provides.

That is tourism is not it? You got to flaunt what you country got so that many tourist will flock and adore your countries beauty and eventually generate revenues for your country.
Before you took your plunge into your Kremlin tour I would like to orient you first what to expect when you are already on the Kremlin compound.
The first thing to remember is you schedule of visitation; yes there is no random visit or anytime tourist visit like to any tourist places you have gone to. This is so because as you all know it, the Kremlin is not a park that you could visit anytime and any day or it is not basically a public property because it is the place or compound for Russia’s government departments. So you must respect the scheduled visitation for tourist strolling days or tourist time.
So I am saying, you must inquire first what schedule you can visit the Kremlin and what is the best schedule which you could view all the tourist attraction you would like to see or behold as you have seen on the Kremlin photos you saw on your travel brochure or on the internet. For there are days some tourist place on the Kremlin are close to public viewing, hence if you make a wrong choice of schedule of visitation, you will not be able to see the places you would like to see on the Kremlin compound. Thus, be careful what schedule you are choosing. I apologize that I could not disclose here some best schedules for visitation but at least I have inform about it before embarking yourself into your Kremlin tour or Kremlin experience.
By the way don’t forget to bring your own camera for free souvenir on your Kremlin experience, it is best to travel on different places especially a tourist attraction one if one has a camera to capture every moments of your experience on that place as your free souvenir and proof you have gone on that place.
