Moscow attrations

I am going to the red square. It was the loction of galthering troops in March 1941 to prepare to go to war with the nazies. I am going to the Kerlin, is the oldest building in Russia, dating back to 1147!!! My last vist is borodina panorama museum. The battle of Borodino, is regarded as the bloodiest of the Napoleonic wars, seeing over 70 000 casualties in a single day. http://www.wordtravels.com/Cities/Russia/Moscow/Attractionsy.
