This is a Moscow kremlin, the oldest part of the city. Right in the center of it. Moscow, if you see it on the map,is made in a radial way spawning away from the center in the circles of the Moscow Circle roads and the Kremlin is in the middle. So to get to the downtown and to the Kremlin you need to pass through all of Moscow.
