'''[[Wikipedia:Saint Basil's Cathedral|St. Basil's Cathedral]]''' (Russian: '''Собор Василия Блаженного''', ''Sobor Vasiliya Blazhennogo'') is a famous church in [[Moscow]] known for its so-called onion domes. One of those '''Chapel Domes''' has been stolen by [[Koopa Troopa]]s in ''[[Mario is Missing!]]'', and [[Luigi]] has to return it to St. Basil's. He is rewarded 2,250 dollars for doing so, plus a bonus of 3,000 dollars if it is returned first. | |||

[[ | ''This strange and wonderful church was built in 1555 by Duke Ivan III''<sup>[[wikipedia:Sic|[sic]]]</sup>'', known as Ivan the Terrible. He ordered the church built to honor the holy fool, St. Basil. (Holy fool is the name for a saint in Russia.) The famous 'onion' domes were added later in the 16th century. Although the church appears to have no real design, the building was carefully built as one large chapel surrounded by eight, dome-topped chapels. Every room is painted in different patterns and colors.'' | ||
