9,5 to me. A great building and cool looking.

the ugliest thing ever.

0/0

Beautiful!!! :) ...10/10!!

8/10!

Superb building, 9/10. Maybe looks better in daylight ....

It is not so much if you like it...0/0 is just immature --- as a peice or art/architecture this building is amazing in size, texture, and detail...it wouldn't fit well it most cities, but in Moscow it's a gem

I am beginning to like Russian arch more and more

9/10

Amazing in size?

Pictures make it look huge in size.... but it was much smaller than I was lead to believe when I saw it in person.



Not a huge fan of the architecture, but the uniqueness to Moscow and it's importance assures this gets a 7/10 from me.

Beautiful in it's own way,I'm not a fan of the colourful domes.
5.0/10

Too much color...

10/10. It's a great big fantastic bowl of ice cream. It'd be a show-stopper in any city in the world! Who wouldn't want to see it up close? (Bizarre that something this much fun was built to celebrate Ivan the Terrible's military victory. Sheesh!)

funny how estonians and polish give it a 0, every one else gave it a ten or a 9

do i smell a sense of inferiority complex?
