Площадь Революции, Central square in Vladikavkaz, Russia.
Revolution Square is a public plaza with open spaces surrounded by regional architecture that shapes the downtown district of Vladikavkaz. The layout invites movement across its grounds, with trees and built structures creating distinct zones for walking and gathering.
The square took shape during Vladikavkaz's expansion in the 19th century as the city grew outward from its core. It has served as a focal point for public gatherings throughout the city's modern era.
The square takes its name from the Russian Revolution and serves as a gathering place where residents and visitors experience the daily rhythm of the city, especially during warm months when people linger in the open spaces.
The square is served by several bus lines and marshrutka minibuses that connect different neighborhoods throughout the city. Its central position makes it easy to reach on foot from most downtown areas.
The square holds status as a tentative cultural heritage site, representing the architectural and social developments of North Ossetia-Alania.
