Slavyanskaya Square
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Slavyanskaya Square (Russian: Славянская площадь) is a square in central Moscow, renamed in 1924–1990 as northern side of Nogina Square (Площадь Ногина); the southern side of Soviet-era Nogina Square reverted to its old name Varvarka Gates Square (Площадь Варварских Ворот). These two square separates central Kitai-gorod from eastward Tagansky District. They connect to Varvarka Street (west), Solyanka Street (east), Kitaigorodsky Lane (south), Staraya Square and Lubyansky Lane (north), completing the half-circle of Central Squares of Moscow around Moscow Kremlin and Kitai-gorod.
