Romantic Russia. Perhaps a vision of Russia many envision, though reality is far removed from such beauty.
This church, the Church of St Demetrius of the Spilled Blood, was built in 1692 by order of Peter the Great. It commemorates the murder of Prince Dimitry, the youngest son of Czar Ivan the Terrible in 1591. The church is painted red as a reminder that blood was spilled on this site centuries ago. The church is located in another 'Golden Ring' town, Uglich, founded in 1148 on the Volga River.
Happy Valentine's Day!
