Предполагаемая статья:

Red Square is in the centre of Moscow. Every year thousands of tourists соте to see it. Why is it called the Red Square? Well, in the Old Russian language the name "Krasnya" meant "beautiful" and it has nothing to do with red walls. In fact, the Кremlin walls were white and it was only in the seventeenth century that "Krasnaya" started to mean "red" as it is .known today.

The Red Square is like the city of Moscow, ancient and vast, surrounded Ьу styles of architecture of different periods. The Кremlin is оп its western side, the State History Museum on its north, the beautiful G UM department store

 

along its whole eastern side, and the world famous coloured domes of St Basil's Cathedral оп the south. These icons all represent Moscow as the political, historical, business and religious centre of Russia. Another landmark is Lobnoye mesto, а round platforrn where puЬlic ceremonies were held in the past. Next to it there is the Monument of Minin and Pozharsky who helped to free Moscow from Polish invaders in 1612. Nowadays the Red Square is the place where you сап see the annual Victory Parade оп Мау 9. You сап also enjoy skating оп the massive ice rink during the winter months.

Red Square is my favourite place because of its magical atmosphere that makes visitors соте back over and over again.
