Zaikonospassky monastery
The Zaikonospassky monastery (Заиконоспасский монастырь in Russian) is a male monastery in Kitai-gorod, Moscow, just one block away from the Kremlin. It was founded in 1600 by Boris Godunov. At first called "Saviour the Old", the cloister gradually acquired its present quaint name which alludes to its location and means "the Saviour behind the icon shops" (...)Top photos chosen by u all:
