One of the most remarkable monuments of Russian art, Pokrovsky Sobor (СОБОР ВАСИЛИЯ БЛАЖEННОГО) is the symbol of Moscow. Commissioned by Ivan the Terrible, it was a centre of power: it was on the platform in front of its gates (nicknamed the Square of Skulls) that public executions were held and Ukases (decrees) were read. Today the cathedral charges for visits. One can buy an entrance ticket coupled with the State Historical Museum.

Magnificent cathedral to see and immortalize absolutely pictures.
Built under the reign of Ivan IV known as the terrible, legend says that he had the eyes bursting with its designer, so they can not reproduce a similar beauty elsewhere.
The interior of the cathedral is a museum entrance fee around €5.
