Ivan the Great Bell-Tower

The eye-catching landmarks on the red field are too many, the Ivan the Great Bell Tower is relatively unbelievable, even I have always regarded it as a part of the city wall, only a structure, not a building, but it is indeed a ringing attraction.

Located in the church area of the Kremlin, it is one of the many churches here. The exterior of the church looks simple and unpretentious, but the interior decoration is extremely luxurious. Unfortunately, it is not often open. Tourists can visit the world's largest copper clock downstairs.

Located in the Moscow Kremlin's church district, typical Russian Orthodox style, the penthouse of green onion, covered with gold film, is particularly dazzling in the sunlight.

Standing on the east side of the cathedral square is the Ivan the Great Bell Tower, two golden domes are very eye-catching. The height of the building is 81 meters, the tallest building in Moscow during the Ivan the Great period, a signal station and a watchtower in ancient times. Today it is the tallest building in the Kremlin, and it is easy to see this landmark outside the palace, standing upstairs overlooking the Moscow River and the surrounding scenery. To enter the interior to visit and climb the building, you need to buy additional tickets, and tickets can only be sold outside the Kremlin where large tickets are sold, which is very inhumane. Not only the visit, but also the ticket sales have a specified time period. Due to the time mismatch, we could not buy the ticket to the building that day, but unfortunately.

Beautiful scenery, fresh air, convenient transportation, a good place to travel

A very striking and spectacular building in the Kremlin, the big clock on the right, once considered the world's heaviest clock, is called the "bell king". Standing in the bell tower will give you a panoramic view of the city and the suburbs. The white walls, with gold roofs, feel very clean and solemn.

Moscow Red Square has several landmark attractions, Vasily Cathedral and the National History Museum are the most well-known, between the two is the Ivan the Great Bell Tower, every Red Square parade, the camera will definitely sweep this bell tower

The bell tower is 81 meters high and its main body was built in 1505 and designed by Italian architect Friarsin in 1508. In 1532, Petrov Mali added an octagonal bell tower to the main body of the bell tower. Napoleon is said to have bolted the warhorses when he led the French army into the Kremlin. He later retreated to bury explosives to destroy the bell tower, but the bomb did not all explode, leaving 18 bells, and Ivan the Great survived. Next to the bell tower was the unfortunate "bell king", which was never sounded after being cast. It was 6 meters high and weighed 200 tons.
