KGB HQ?

 

[Wanderer]

KGB HQ?

Close enough, it's Lubyanka in Moscow and it is the former KGB headquarters and a prison. Famously, it is said you can see Siberia from the cellar.

My pic from 2015, next door is Destskiy Mir (Children's World) basically a toy shop which is bit chilling.

Over to you DaveT

 

[DaveT]

Ok.
