St. Basil's Cathedral, located in Moscow's Red Square, is a famous Russian Orthodox church built in the 16th century. It is known for its colorful onion-shaped domes, unique architecture, and its historical significance as a symbol of Russia's power and spirituality. The cathedral's original purpose was to commemorate the capture of the Tatar stronghold of Kazan in 1552, and it has since been used for various religious and secular functions. Despite facing damage and restoration over the centuries, the cathedral remains a popular tourist attraction and a stunning example of Russian architecture.
