We arrived here, at the Lower Reshetki, along the Velikaya Embankment from the Olginsky Bridge. Since the Pskova River flows into the Velikaya River here, passing through a passage in the wall, we reached the Pskova Embankment, and from there we'll reach the Troitsky Bridge.
Compared to April, there's more greenery here, and a bench has been installed near the Lower Reshetki. For a touch of romance, I suppose...
The High (Voskresenskaya) Tower is the second tower of the Lower Lattice
Both of these towers—Ploskaya and Voskresenskaya—were built in 1500 to protect the entrance to the Pskova River. Later, a wooden wall, then a stone one, with a water gate was built between them. This structure became known as the Lower Lattice. By the early 20th century, both towers were practically destroyed. They were restored in 1968, during the comprehensive restoration of the Kremlin.
Kutekroma Tower
In the small park on the opposite bank, some work is being carried out to improve this area.
The tower of the Shagat factory mysteriously peeks out from the dense greenery
The spherical willow bushes planted along the Pskov embankment look very impressive.
Since April, another structure has been added to the Pskova embankment. Since it's still under construction, it's likely a new observation deck.
The Middle Tower. Its name is believed to derive from its location in the middle of the eastern fortress wall, between the Kutekroma and Troitskaya towers.
The bell tower was built on the site of an ancient tower "on Radchin Vskhod." Square in plan, it has multiple floors, topped with tiered spans of bells, a decorative tier of tower clocks, and a spire with a cross. The upper tiers were added in the 18th and 19th centuries.
Trinity Cathedral
Ahead is Trinity Bridge – the final point of our walk today…
View from under the bridge of the route taken.
This is where I'll end our promenade today. But there are still more walks along the banks of the Pskova River to come.
So, to be continued….
