About the destination:

Inextricably linked to the major events of Soviet Union, St. Petersburg cannot escape its imperial past. Physically, at least, St. Petersburg has been the city of the tsars since Peter the Great founded the city in a swamp and moved the capital here from Moscow in 1712 to provide greater contact with the West. Many of the major baroque and neoclassical buildings and well-designed streets and landscaped parks are the work of imperial French and Italian architects. St. Petersburg, Russia’s second largest city, is often called Russia’s Western Gate, and the City of White Nights. For a splendid overview of the city, climb the dome of St. Isaac’s Cathedral on Isaakievskaya square, a massive example of 19th century civic-religious architecture; its dome is covered in pure gold. Nearby, on Senate Square overlooking the Neva, is Falconet’s Monument to Peter the Great. Peter and Paul Fortress was founded by Peter the Great and was erected in just one year between 1703 and 1704 during the Great Northern War against Sweden. The fortress was never used to defend the city but it was used as a political prison under the Tsar. Inside the fortress is the main attraction for visitors: the Cathedral of Saints Peter and Paul containing the tombs of Peter the Great, Catherine the Great, Nicholas II and other tsars. Nevsky Prospect is St. Petersburg’s main avenue and one of the best-known streets in Russia. The buildings along Nevsky Prospekt are a treasure house for art-nouveau-fans. Nevsky Prospect is also the city’s central shopping street and the hub of the city’s entertainment and nightlife. Even if the rest of the city were non-existent, the Hermitage alone would merit a week-long visit to St. Petersburg. Located in the magnificent, luxurious Winter Place, former residence of the tsars, this collection of art unquestionably ranks among the world’s finest. But before you immerse yourself in the art, take in the main halls where the tsar reigned and entertained, especially the awesome Malachite Hall, where the provisional Government held its last meeting before the revolution exploded around it. Cool and aristocratic St. Petersburg is a magnificent city with beautiful architecture everywhere. Often described as the Venice of the North, St Petersburg is a city defined by water. Whether you’re cruising the elegant canals, crossing one of the 342 bridges in the city, or just watching them being raised over the mighty Neva River at night to allow ships to pass through, you’re never far from water in St Petersburg.

About the destination:

On one side, icons like Red Square and the Kremlin; on the other, the modern Zaryadye Park, Moscow Cityskyscrapers and glowing night lights. Museums, theatres, street shows and winter fairs — all within a few metro stops.


Don’t‑miss list

  • Red Square & St. Basil’s Cathedral: Come early for photos; midday gets crowded.
  • Kremlin & Armory Chamber: Reserve 2–3 hours for the collections.
  • Zaryadye Park: Panoramas from the “floating bridge”; magical after dark.
  • Moscow Metro: Mayakovskaya, Komsomolskaya, Ploshchad Revolyutsii — an underground art route.
  • Tretyakov Gallery (Old & New): A map of Russian art.
  • Gorky Park & Muzeon: Bikes, scooters, open‑air sculptures and summer cinemas.
  • Moskva River cruise: See the skyline from the water in summer.

Insider tip: Book museum tickets online (e.g., via BHT.az) and enter after peak hours — it’s quieter and faster.


Plan by season

  • Spring (Apr–May): Parks wake up; outdoor events start.
  • Summer (Jun–Aug): Riverside & festivals; split plans into morning/evening.
  • Autumn (Sep–Oct): Golden foliage — best for photos.
  • Winter (late Nov–Feb): Fairs, light installations, hot chocolate and museum marathons.


Cuisine — what to try

  • Blini & syrniki for breakfast.
  • Pelmeni & vareniki in home‑style cafés.
  • Borscht‑style soups & shuba salad — perfect in colder months.

Insider tip: Small coffee bars with old‑school geyser machines are great in the morning when queues are short.


Practical notes

  • Transport: Use the Troika card for metro/tram/bus.
  • Payments: Cards widely accepted; keep some cash for small purchases.
  • Language: In tourist areas you’ll find English help; metro signage is bilingual.
  • Etiquette: Modest dress and photo rules in religious sites.
  • Comfort: Lots of walking — comfy shoes and season‑ready layers.
