This is the cathedral of Christ the Savior, located by the Krasnopresnenskaya metro stop. I walked there in the evening, and spent about 3 hours, just relaxing there at dusk. There wern't a lot of people around, the weather was beautiful and there was a magnificet breeze washing over the square.

The photos I've taken are of the church and the skyline surrounding it. Click the photos for larger versions.
