The Cathedral of the Archangel is dedicated to the Archangel Michael, and is located in Cathedral Square between the Great Kremlin Palace and Ivan the Great Bell Tower. It was built between 1505 and 1508 under the supervision of an Aloisio. It was the burial place of the Moscow Princes and Tsars and carried this tradition until the 18th century. I took this photo from Cathedral Square, shortly before walking through the Taynitsky Garden with Victoria.

This is a beautiful edifice. We don't have things like this in my country

Excellent shot! I have always liked the architecture of the temples, they are very well elaborated. The gold color domes are very nice.

Really beautiful!

Stunning architecture!
