Hermitage
Hermitage
The noun hermitage has origins in the French word hermite, meaning “hermit,” a person who lives alone, far from society.
Doesn't sound like the main palace in the city center, right?
Peterhof
Peterhof
The Russian Versailles. Besides all these amazing fountains and the bay just across the park, while you are there go and see the beautiful church directly opposite upper park entrance.
Peter and Paul fortress
Peter and Paul fortress
The fortress, and all that lie within the walls and on the island (yes, it's a separate island!) is unique and central to the identity of St. Petersburg, and can just be called a point of intellectual and active recreation.
Bronze Horseman
Bronze Horseman
The Bronze Horseman is one of the most iconic sights of St Petersburg. The majestic sight of Peter on the banks of the Neva, looking over his city, is brilliant and the statue’s iconic pose will come to mind whenever you think of St Petersburg!
Saint Isaac's Cathedral
Saint Isaac's Cathedral
The magnificent dome of St. Isaac's Cathedral rises to a height of 101,5 meter and is visible from all over the historic center of St. Petersburg. The gleaming dome is plated with pure gold and decorated with statues of angels.
A climb to the kolonnada, the colonnade just below the dome, rewards you with a spectacular view over the city.
Church of the Savior on Blood
Church of the Savior on Blood
The church’s design was inspired by traditional Russian styles, as well as St. Basil’s Cathedral in Moscow and the Vladimir Cathedral in Kiev.
The Church of the Savior on Spilled Blood took 24 years to construct and, after early Soviet vandalism, 27 years to restore.
Kazan Cathedral
Kazan Cathedral
The cathedral is the monument to glory of Russian arms. The famous Russian Field Marshal Mikhail Kutuzov, who won the most important campaign of 1812, was buried inside the Kazan Cathedral.
Old Saint Petersburg Stock Exchange and Rostral Columns
Old Saint Petersburg Stock Exchange and Rostral Columns
From the very start they served as lighthouses for the trading port. Inside the rostral columns there are spiral staircases, leading to the lamps on tripods.
