So I'm not sure if this isn't the third myth...

I don't know. But in Russian it means Red, not Beautiful.

Oh, I see what you mean now. Well then, maybe it is because of the red bricks. I dunno, I'm not Russian.

Nice buildings though.

So just to clarify (for my own simple curiosity), "Krasno" didn't mean beautiful in old Russian? In modern Russian it means "red", but what about the old dialect?

I'm not contesting anything you say, I'm honestly just curious about this. I'm simple-minded like that.

Yes they were not built by the Commies but they are still beautiful buildings as it is.

Well I am not sure about that, defiitely "krasný" means "beautiful" in modern Czech.

Adler, if you're talking about the bus stops, they WERE built by the Commies.
