The political, scientific, historical, architectural and business center of Russia, Moscow displays the country's contrasts at their most extreme. The ancient and modern are juxtaposed side by side in this city of 10 million. Catch a metro from one of the ornate stations to see Red Square, the Kremlin, the nine domes of St. Basil's Cathedral, Lenin's Mausoleum, the KGB Museum and other symbols of Moscow's great and terrible past, then lighten up and shop Boulevard Ring or people watch in Pushkin Square.

I was over to please to run into this magnicent tower by just one of my usual walks in this area. It was closer to my hotel in the Arbatskaya metro area. Actually I was looking for a restaurant and happened to see this modern age sky scraper. Had to take a photo as it was a refreshing change from the many dome-like and extravagant buildings in Moscow. No need to go out of your way to see it but if you do, take a pic.

Originally contructed in 1782 by the architect Kazakov, this was a two-storey palace for governor-general of Moscow. The building was raised with the addition of two storeys in the 1940s.
