What a legend
Beats all the museums hands down, only lasts a few mins but it will stay with you a lot longer than any painting could do. To see a real icon for free, one of the best things you can do in Russia. I have done A level history and to see a real legend who had done so much for a country's history in so few years is a real oppourtunity. And it doesn't take long. Definately worth a see.

Creepy, creepy
It's worthwhile to visit, because it's such a Moscow Icon. You wait in an usually interminable line to descend into a very red space, until passing by Lenin's waxy looking body. Rumor has it that the body is currently in fact wax, as the Russians have been replacing body parts as they fall off. (Only rumor.)

It was amazing, I had so much fun. However it is best to visit in the summer because the weather conditions are much nicer
