RUSSIA


This card is View of the Moskava River from the observation platform of the Catherral of Christ the saviour 

The Moskva River 


The Moskva also known as the Moscow River, is a river of western Russia. It rises about 90 miles west of Moscow, and flows roughly east through the Smolensk and Moscow Oblasts, passing through central Moscow. About 70 miles south east of Moscow, at the city of Kolomna, it flows into the Oka River, itself a tributary of the Volga, which ultimately flows into the Caspian Sea.

The Cathedral of Christ the Saviour 


The Cathedral of Christ the Saviour  is a cathedral in Moscow, Russia, on the northern bank of the Moskva River, a few blocks southwest of the Kremlin. With an overall height of 103 metres (338 ft),it is the tallest Orthodox Christian church in the world.
The current church is the second to stand on this site. The original church, built during the 19th century, took more than 40 years to build. It was destroyed in 1931 during the Communist rule of Joseph Stalin. The demolition was supposed to make way for a colossal Palace of the Soviets that was never built, so the church was reconstructed in the 1990s on the same site.
The original church was the scene of the 1882 world premiere of the famous 1812 Overture by Tchaikovsky


Thank you soo much Oleg for your nice card and stamps like this card very much :) :)
