Formed during the 14th century in the historical centre of Moscow, Volkhonka is one of the oldest streets in Russia's capital. In the above photo you can see the Cathedral of Christ the Saviour, the biggest orthodox church in the world. It was originally built in the 19th century to commemorate Russian victory over Napoleonic France, but was later destroyed during the soviet period on Stalin's order. The cathedral was rebuilt in the 1990s and sits on the bank of the Moscow River, a few hundred yards away from the Kremlin. What you don't see in the photo is the beautiful building that I'm standing outside of, the Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts. Victoria and I had just spent a few hours admiring landscapes from our beloved impressionists. It was a lovely afternoon and I plan to upload photos from inside in the near future.
