Vodozvodnaya Tower

Vodozvodnaya Tower

Totally, the Kremlin has 20 towers. The Vodozvodnaya (Water-Drawing) Tower is one of three corner towers , which are round in shape. It stands on the bank of the Moscow River near the Bolshoi Kamenny Most (Big Stone Bridge). The tower was built in 1488 and is almost 59 meters tall. In the year of 1633 a special pumping mechanism was built inside the Tower to draw water from Moscow-River for the Court, which had always been there in the Kremlin, up to the reign of Peter the Great.

Arthur is the best! My trip to Moscow on business would have been a very dull experience had it not been for finding Arthur excellent service through the internet. I feel extremely lucky to have come across Arthur as he brought the best aspects of Moscow to life for me by giving me so much history and insight. To have someone who is so knowledgeable, pleasant and efficient to show you around a stunning city like Moscow is fantastic experience. To cap all his talents, he is also an accomplished photographer and he e-mailed me wonderful photos of our trip. I will use Arthur whenever I go back Moscow to organise every aspect of my trip and I have already recommended him to a number of people in the UK and USA. I highly recommend him to you.
