Above the Moskva and still higher above the walls of the Kremlin looms the suitably-named Great Kremlin Palace. Erected on the orders of Nicholas I from 1838 to 1849, the rigorously classical facade measures 125 meters from east to west. The huge (61 meters long, 20.5 meters wide, 17.5 meters high) St. George's Hall is used for state awards ceremonies, while St. Vladimir's Hall is where foreign guests go to sign international treaties. Normal visitors will not get to see any of this because the palace is normally out of bounds unless you are on state business.
