We visited the Kremlin, which is and has always been the seat of government power in Russia - it's changed hands a number of times from the Tsars to the Communists to today's democracy.
While we were there, we also saw the Tsar Bell, which is the biggest bell in the world - but it never rang, because it cracked while it was still being made. It was pretty big. (For Mum and Dad - I remember this from your photos of Russia!)
We finished off the day with some traditional Russian food, which we ate in a restaurant which was packed with locals (as well as a few tourists), just off Red Square. Clearly Russia has embraced its new ideals :)
