A changing country and city by MEdelmann
My foundest memory of Moscow is that the city was in an changing process. Many names of streets, sqares and metro stations were renamed into the old names. So maps were valid for a short time only and it could happen that a new bought map was unvalid next day, because some streets and places were renamed .....
And I saw memorials where the pedestal stand only and the statue was removed because they wanted nothing to do anymore with soviet relics ......
Picture shows the Reedemeer Tower, which is one of the entrances to the Kremlin, but for officals only and NOT for tourists ....
