About Red Square
First comes the open space; then you pick out the edges. On one side are the Kremlin walls; on the other, GUM. St. Basil's closes one end, and the State Historical Museum the other. Walk through the middle to take in the whole ensemble.
The square is an open-air stroll, not a joint ticket to the monuments around it. Look at the facades and leave the entrances for separate visits. Events and access controls may change your route.
