Info about St. Petersburg

the Bronze Horseman (Equestrain statue of Peter the Great) St. Petersburg, the city of white nights, is by far one of the most beautiful cities in the world. After Moscow it is Russia's largest. Culturally and economically it is the most important city in Russia. On May 16 (May 27, New Style) of the year 1703, after the Russian troops had captured the Nienschantz Fortress (an important strategic point), Peter the Great ordered the construction of the Peter and Paul Fortress on Zayachi Ostrov (Hare Island) in the widest part of the Neva estuary. This date marks the beginning of the building of a stronghold and a trading port the Baltic coast — St. Petersburg.

St. Petersburg. ''Venice of the North'' With its uniform Baroque and Neoclassical architecture this "Venice of the North", as it is frequently called, is one of the most unique and exquisite cities in Europe. This historic city sprawls across and around the delta of the Neva River, at the end of the Baltic Sea, known as the Gulf of Finland. The Neva first flows north and then turns west across the middle of the city.

Winter Palace and the Admiralty Winter Palace Admiralty Palace Bridge (Dvortsovy Most) The area spreading back from the Winter Palace and the Admiralty on the south bank is truly the heart of the city.

St. Isaac's Cathedral The skyline is dominated by the golden dome of St. Isaac's Cathedral. The main street is called Nevskiy prospect where many of the city's sights, restaurants, and shops can be found. It is St. Petersburg's main street, stretching for more than four kilometers from the Admiralty like a bowstring across the arc formed by the Neva within the city. This is the busiest thoroughfare, with a history as old as the city itself.

Rich in culture and tradition, there are numerous things to do and places to see. The following are just a few sites that you may want to visit with that special someone you just met:

Hydrafoils and River Cruises

Hydrafoils and River Cruises If you're here between the months of May and October it is well worth hopping on a boat and checking out the city from the water. Not only does it show you the city from one of it's most fortuitous angles, but it greatly decreases the chances of you getting run over by a tram while taking pictures.

River boats leave from the jetties in front of the Hermitage and in front of Senate Square. Tickets are available on a first come, first served basis from kassas at the locations, and price discrimination rules may apply. These large boats cruise slowly up and down the Neva, puddling along at a leisurely pace in order to sell more sandwiches and warm champagne.

A more scenic alternative is a canal tour. One way to do this is to go to the dock on the Fontanka River just north of Anichkov Bridge, pay your fare and get on a boat with all the other people. For a more personalized option, try the so-called water taxis. These are private boat owners who hang out by the Fontanka dock and also at a loading point on the Moika River just north of Nevsky Prospekt.

Excursion on Neva These water taxis are particularly enjoyable since you can cruise the smaller canals that the big tour boats can't manage as well as stop wherever you want along the way, which is handy if you run out of drinks. Cruising the Griboyedov and Kryukov canals and the Moika River is a great way to see St. Nicholas' Cathedral, the area around Teatralnaya Ploshchad, and New Holland. At night when the bridges are up you can sometimes get these water taxis to take you to any water-linked destination.
