THE CATHEDRAL OF ST. BASIL'S: MOSCOW 



St. Basil's is remarkable for its bizarre outlines and the gaudy color of its exterior. The interior is very 

 disappointing, being divided into eleven small and gloomy chapels, which resemble dungeons. In this they 

 are unlike the typical Russian church, which is elaborately adorned in gold and other rich colors.
