At the Gates of Cathedral Square at Sunset

Last rays of the setting sun highlight the magnificent architectural ensemble of Rostov Kremlin from the entrance into Cathedral Square. The churches and towers of the Kremlin covered with beautiful clouds at the moment. The kremlin of Rostov Velikiy (The Great) was built by efforts of the Metropolitan Iona Sysoyevich in 17th century and consists of three relatively independent functional zones: the Cathedral Square at the left, the bishop's yard in the middle, and the Metropolitan Gardens at the right side close to the lake Nero.
