Moscow Travel Forum

Hello dear friends...
If anyone could tell me if the kremlim guards in Moscow would allow me to enter the Kremlim with my camera tripod...

I know there are some places where you cannot do it: Chichen Itza, The Sistine Chapel, The Louvre, The British Museum

I am going to Moscow late August, and I need to plan ahead...

Please let me know if anyone has information. Thanks

the Kremlin is a sensitive area and therefore the controls are very strict and are also done by the police/army and not by ordinary "museum-staff" when you enter. All sorts of bags, rucksacks etc. have to be stored in a room/office outside of the Kremlin , and you just leave it there and nobody will realize when you bring in your old stuff and take away some better ones on your way out...
I simply cannot believe that a tripod will be accepted !
1st for security reasons and then again also because they dont want to have professional photography inside the churches.
I did not have big problems with my non-digital SLR and 1:2,8/20 mm lense some years ago

Dear Unpajarito,Unfortunately, a tripod is not allowed inside Kremlin complex.You have to leave it at special storage room.I just found this info for you from Russian forums and websites by google.Cheers!
