Red Square (“Krasnaya ploshchad”) is the most famous square in Moscow, and arguably one of the most famous in the world. The square separates the Kremlin, the former royal citadel and currently the official seat of the President of Russia, from the historic merchant quarter known as Kitay-gorod. As the major streets of Moscow radiate from here in all directions, heading to the major highways outside the city, Red Square is often considered not only the central square of Moscow, but of all Russia.
