Tips from the community

Welcome to Moscow! The beautiful and historic Red Square marks the intersection of the Kremlin (the executive branch of the government), the former royal citadel, and the president of Russia’s official residence. Oh-so intricate architecture makes it a massive-scaled work of art. P.S. I may or may not have Googled “do people actually drink Moscow mules in Moscow” while writing this. Spoiler alert: They do not; the cocktail was invented in Connecticut. The more you know.
