St. Basil's Cathedral Notes

Notes on St. Basil's Cathedral

These are some more views of St. Basil's Cathedral (more properly titled the Church of the Intercession, Pokrovskii Sobor). It is actually pretty remarkable that the church has survived given its central location on Red Square and the ebb and flow of Russian history (not to mention Stalin). For more information, see www.moscow-taxi.com/churches/st-basils-cathedral.html or other travel sites such as www.moscow-hotels-russia.com/vasil_blagen.htm. There is also an amazing interior panorama of the cathedral done by Declan McCullagh. Finally, there is a nice web page available with some good pictures of St. Basil's cathedral.
