At Bell Tower of St. Basil’s Cathedral

My Dear Clients from USA, Jan and David Chapman, near bell tower of the most famous Moscow and Russia landmark, the cathedral of the Intercession of the Virgin on the Moat, well known from 19th century as St. Basil’s cathedral. The cathedral was built on Red Square in 1555-1561 under order from the first Russian Czar, Ivan the Terrible, with the blessing of metropolitan Macarius in honor of the Russian conquest of Kazan Khanate in 1552.
