The former residence of the bishops of Sarai, a monastery since the 13th century, with the 1700 Dormition cathedral, a tiled gate-tower (the Krutitsy teremok) and the covered passages of 1693-1694, all in red brick. Muscovites come for the quiet courtyards; it is hidden behind Taganka's residential blocks.
