Красная площадь |

There are many famous architectural monuments in Russia: the amazing residence of Peter I – Peterhof Palace, poetic bridges of Saint Petersburg, the ancient Cathedral of Saint Sofia in Novgorod… However, it is impossible to compare any Russian place of interest with Moscow Red Square, one of the most important historical centers in our country. The Kremlin, the main symbol of Russia and the habitation of its state authority, is located on Red Square, so its traditional name is “the country’s heart”. |
В России много знаменитых архитектурных памятников: потрясающая резиденция Петра I – Петергоф, поэтичные мосты Санкт-Петербурга, древний Софийский собор в Новгороде… Однако невозможно сравнить какую-либо российскую достопримечательность с московской Красной площадью, одним из самых важных исторических центров в нашей стране. Кремль, главный символ России и обитель её государственной власти, находится на Красной площади, поэтому её традиционно называют «сердцем страны». |

The Kremlin has a rich and long history: an ancient fortress on its place existed already in the 12th century; in the 14th century Dmitry Donskoy, the prince of Moscow, founded there a white stone castle. Ivan III, the first great ruler of the united Rus, began large reconstruction of the Kremlin and created its modern ensemble with brick walls. The Kremlin, especially its majestic Spasskaya Tower, could impress everyone. |
У Кремля богатая и долгая история: древняя крепость на его месте существовала уже в XII веке; в XIV веке Дмитрий Донской, князь Московский, основал там твердыню из белого камня. Иван III, первый великий государь объединённой Руси, начал масштабное переустройство Кремля и создал его современный ансамбль с кирпичными стенами. Кремль, особенно его величественная Спасская башня, способен впечатлить каждого. |
|
Besides, visitors of Red Square can see other remarkable constructions: Saint Basil’s Cathedral with its brightness and particular beauty, the State Historical Museum of Russia, Kazan Cathedral founded in the 17th century. In front of Saint Basil’s Cathedral rises the monument to Minin and Pozharsky who saved Russia from Polish interventionists. A special part of Red Square is dedicated to the Soviet heritage: there are Lenin’s Mausoleum and Necropolis consisting of urns with Soviet Union statesmen ashes. |
Кроме того, посетители Красной площади могут увидеть другие примечательные строения: Храм Василия Блаженного с его яркостью и необычной красотой, Государственный исторический музей России, Казанский собор, основанный в XVII |

Of course, every day Red Square attracts plenty of Russian and foreign tourists. Several years ago I also visited Moscow and saw this place; the day spent there was actually unforgettable. |
Конечно, ежедневно Красная площадь привлекает множество русских и зарубежных туристов. Несколько лет назад я тоже посетила Москву и видела это место; день, проведённый там, был действительно незабываемым. |

Перевод
В XV веке все деревянные здания вокруг Кремля были снесены по приказу царя Ивана III для создания площади (ныне именуемой Красной площадью), так как эти здания угрожали царской резиденции регулярными пожарами.
Это пространство организовывалось для мелкой торговли. Первоначально она называлась-Торговой, но в 16 веке получил новое название-Троицкой, в честь Церкви Троицы, которая находилась в южной части площади. Согласно официальным данным, нынешнее название площадь обрела в 1661 году по указу царя Алексея Михайловича. Название Красной площади происходит от древнерусского слова «красивая».
Основными достопримечательностями на площади являются: Московский Кремль, Мавзолей, Собор Василия Блаженного, памятник Минину и Пожарскому, Лобное место, универмаг ГУМ, Казанский Собор, Исторический музей и др. Общее количество достопримечательностей-22 штуки. Там же находится монетный двор. В настоящее время здание не функционирует по прямому назначению. Оно номинально принадлежит историческому музею, но на самом деле его помещения заняты разными арендаторами.
Ее размеры — 330 х75 метров, а общая площадь 24 750 м2. Это место является самым посещаемым местом в Москве.
