The Seven Sisters were constructed under the order of Stalin in 1947. The architectural feet was an attempt to add a little Soviet grandeur to the city's skyline. Their soaring gothic spires are haunting from a distance and overwhelming at close quarters. The most prominent of the seven is Moscow State University, main building (Moskovskii Gosudarstvennyi Universitet), a 36-story beast standing 240 meters tall and topped by a 12-ton star. Other impressive examples include Ukraina and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs building.NYC Best Hotel Deals: 50% Savings In New York!
