Bolshoi Circus

I've managed to visit the Bolshoi Circus at Vorobyovy Hills near the Moscow State University during my Russia trip. The circus is near Vorobyovy Gory Moscow metro station and it is, with its 3,500-seat house and its numerous and specialized facilities, the world's largest circus building. Below is the picture of the circus building.

Might be due to the weather but I saw many mini rainbows at the fountains near the Bolshoi Circus. Couldn't resist taking a picture of it. :)

Unfortunately, we're not allowed to take photos during the performance. Therefore, I could only take photos before it starts, or during the intermission. The theme of the night was Zorro. :)

Below are the photos that I've managed to take.
