The inside story
A short 19km away from Red Square you will find Moscow’s lesser known second Kremlin. Nestled in the district Izmaylovo this Kremlin resembles a fairytale wonderland of white washed buildings with brightly colored roofs. Unlike many other Kremlins built throughout Russia this palace is not a fortress, instead the Izmaylovo Kremlin is a wooden complex that was built in 2007 as a cultural center and marketplace.
The busy complex houses several museums and is dedicated to everything Russian including folk art, food and drinks. Inside the Kremlin walls you can also see a wooden replica of the summer palace of Tsar Alexei Mikhailovich and the Church of St. Nicholas, which at 151 feet in height is the tallest wooden church in the country.
