The image captures the grandeur of this historical landmark, known as Upper trading rows, which now stands as the renowned GUM department store on Red Square. The photograph exudes a sense of nostalgia, transporting us to an era when bustling shoppers roamed these very streets. The architectural beauty of the building is evident in its intricate details and imposing structure. It serves as a testament to Russia's rich history and cultural heritage.
