It’s fun, however, to explore the inner maze of St. Basil’s church, for it is a maze in truth! You might actually get lost (I at least did!). Also take the time, as you will involuntarily do anyway, to frequently take a glance at the splendor above. The tiny chapels, some of them barely spanning 10 square meters, don’t have a true apse. It is the hollow spires themselves that serve in this function. Some of the spectacular murals will give you the uncanny impression that the depicted saints are truly watching over you from above.
