🧿 Wanted to go to "Patriot Park" film some stuff for you all, nobody wanted to go with me, not Russians, not foreigners.

So as a consolation, going to go see Stalin's bunker.

🧿 So, it turns out you need to call in advance to organize a tour, and it is only available for groups, not individuals, so, no bunker today.

🧿 Here is some armour at the entrance though.

🧿 A quick peek at the Kremlin, Red Square, and St. Basil's Cathedral.

🧿 For those of you who are not familiar with the 'evil eye' and mistake it for a 'Turkish symbol' or something like that, here is a video that popped up in my feed.

The symbol is used to ward off evil gazes and malevolent curses, for about 5000 years.

Plus, in telegram where most posts begin with a fire symbol or something red, this provides good contrast.

🧿 Parizanskaya (Partisan) station, massive statue.

🧿 Marshal Zhukov's statue, slaying a dragon, central Moscow.

Georgy Konstantinovich Zhukov (Russian: Георгий Константинович Жуков; 1 December 1896 – 18 June 1974) was a Soviet general and Marshal of the Soviet Union. He also served as Chief of the General Staff, Minister of Defence, and was a member of the Presidium of the Communist Party (later Politburo). During World War II, Zhukov oversaw some of the Red Army's most decisive victories.

🧿 Today we take a different form of transport.
