Lenin Mausoleum
Lenin’s Tomb is the Tomb of Russian Communist Revolutionary leader Vladimir Lenin in Red Square in Moscow. His preserved body has been on public display there since his death in 1924. Its structure incorporates some elements from ancient mausoleums like Step Pyramid and the Tomb of Cyrus. The body preservation of Lenin is quite a job.
The corps requires daily work to moisturize the features and inject preservatives under the clothes. Every eighteen months the corpse is removed and undergoes a special chemical bath. Taking photos or videos as well as talking and smoking are not allowed in the tomb. It has always been the most visited site for foreigners traveling Russia.
