Russia: GUM in Red Square


I ate in this restaurant a few times on both of my trips to Moscow, as it has communist style help-yourself food.  I always choose it because it is incredibly reasonable for being right within the GUM in Moscow right in Red Square.  I love this photo because of the cyrillic writing, which always makes regular signs more interesting plus the beautiful backdrop of the GUM.







 These are more photos inside the GUM.  It was great to see the GUM decorated for the upcoming holidays.  In Russia, New Years is bigger than Christmas, and most of the signs are around Happy New Year.  The snowflakes they had displayed the GUM were incredibly elegant and unexpected.
