Years will change, fashion will change, but the symbol of the Kazan queen Syuyumbike will survive the centuries. There are many legends, but one says that the tower was erected on the burial site of the queens husband, Safa Giray.
The second says that the queen threw herself from this tower, not wanting to become the wife of Ivan the Terrible. On the gates of the tower are depicted a crescent and a half sun, the connection of the male and female principles, and the evening is a meeting of the outgoing day and the coming night. Everything is washed by rain, like tears. People in their turmoil. And only the light of this tower illuminates the Kremlin in any weather and reminds everyone of Syuyumbik.
