How to find the place in Moscow where the politician Boris Nemtsov was killed? I wanted to find him. I do not live in the capital, and therefore it is a dark forest for me. All I knew was that I had to take the metro to any station that bordered Red Square and the Kremlin. The computer showed me there are several stations, but I preferred Okhotny Ryad. Leaving the subway, I look for the place where the politician was killed.
Boris Nemtsov was in the TOP 10 of the country's leadership. He was the Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation. The youngest politician in our country.
In 2008, he headed the opposition to the current government.
On February 27, 2015, Boris Nemtsov was killed on the Bolshoy Moskvoretsky Bridge with four shots in the back. So he was killed in front of the Kremlin. When I was looking for this place, I reasoned like this: some believed that his death was a gift to the Kremlin authorities. From the Kremlin windows, the murder scene should be clearly visible. So I must find the Kremlin.
I found the Kremlin quickly. After passing the Mausoleum, we go to the left side of the Kremlin, where President Putin usually goes.
Here's his security detail. The clock chimes above the guards.
Opposite the entrance to the Kremlin, I saw many toilets.
We go to St. Basil's Cathedral. It is also named the Pokrovsky Cathedral.
We go around it on the left
We see a path leading somewhere.
In the distance, we can see the beginning of the bridge. It is marked with a red arrow. I need to get there.
The murder scene is visited by tourists. Many of them are Chinese.
I'm going up to the bridge.
Here we see many flowers. It lying on the spot where Nemtsov was killed.
This place can be seen from the towers of the Kremlin. Here lay the body of a politician.
Of course, the murderers executed the sentence in front of the Kremlin by accident. It's a coincidence.
There are many colors here.
There are condolences in foreign languages.
From here you can enjoy a beautiful view of the Moskva River.
This is how the view looks in the opposite direction.
Moskvoretsky Bridge is often washed. That day it was washed especially carefully.
This place is illuminated by a ruby star. It is made of ruby glass.
That's how I touched big politics.
