The "Golden Ring" Sergiev Posad

These are the pictures long overdue. Sergiev Posad is the probably most important seat of the Metropolit of Moscow/Russia who apparently happened to be in town when I was there (therefore the many police cars). Boris Godunov and his family are buried here. Here are the links for more details. The English version is pitiful bad, the German quite interesting...

This is what Russian police is driving nowadays...


And this was an obviously monarchistic demonstration....
