My walk around the Kremlin is far from over, and after looking where I can get off now, going further.

And something new is peeking out from behind the Christmas trees, and this is really a completely restored church Simeon the Stylite, the temple was rebuilt in stone in 1743, on the site of a wooden one that burned down in a fire in 1715.

This is how the church originally looked

End of September, navigation is closed and the last boats are visible:

And behind the foliage, another historical building peeps through - the Red Barracks, built in 1835-1853. The author of the project is a Russian architect And. E. Efimov.

And from this side they also make a walking area:

Everything has not been fully restored yet, but it is already possible to pass

Here is the next tower, and the Museum of Architraves is open in the tower, here I hung out for a long time.


And they did it very well, and this is a novelty - benches have been made all over the Kremlin wall so that you can take a break, chat, exchange impressions or just look at the beautiful panoramas that open up.

And then the question arose - where is the old one, and where is the new masonry

Still a little bit left, our famous Chkalov Staircase is already visible:

And here are the very last steep steps, and my little journey into the past will end.

And this glider somehow helps and supports, and it seems that everything is so easy and simple. And almost everyone is fascinated by his flight, and I am no exception, I also stared and it’s the same as always (we have flights from a slope all the time), but somehow it looked beautiful against the blue sky.

And this tower is also under restoration, it will have music:

And the last line:

And this building was built in 1913-1916 to house the board of the Volga steamship company. The society was founded in 1910.

And here the wall is replaced by a nearby building, which will be completely restored - is not clear.

This is the last tower, and it is also being restored:

This is the former building of the Nizhny Novgorod seminary, built in 1827-1831. The author of the project is the architect A. L. Leer. Today it houses one of the buildings Minin University.

So my journey along the wall of the Nizhny Novgorod Kremlin ended. And here they dug up something, yet I don’t know what:

And the weather is good and just calls and offers to walk around the territory of the Kremlin itself, and I did not refuse this offer, and my journey continued.....

Так изначально выглядела церковь.
Ещё не до конца всё восстановили, но пройти уже можно.
А тут возник вопрос- где старая, а где новая кладка.
А здесь стену заменяет рядом стоящее здание, будет полностью восстановлена не понятно.
