STORYLINE
At least 60-thousand people took part in a procession in the Russian city of Yekaterinburg on Sunday to mark the anniversary of the death of the last Russian Czar.
Ninety-eight years ago, in the early morning of 17 July, the Russian Czar Nicholas II, his wife Tsarina Alexandra, their five children and four of their servants were executed by Bolshevik troops in Ipatiev House.
The house was later demolished and at the site now stands the Church of the Blood.
On Sunday, a religious procession was held for the 14th time to mark the occasion.
The procession followed the route that the bodies of the Imperial family were taken after they were executed.
A descendant of the Imperial family, Princess Olga Kulikovskaya-Romanova, was the special guest at this year's procession.
Participants marched from the site of the former Ipatiev House, to what was known as Ganya's Pit - where it's believed the bodies were dumped and burned.
The site of the former pit is now surrounded by male Monastery of the Holy Imperial Passion-Bearers.
It took five hours to travel the 20-kilometres between the two sites.
