The historical center of St. Petersburg, known from films, books, paintings, postcards, and music videos, will appear before you in a traditional style — with references to events, personalities, and dates, as well as in an unusual perspective — as urban folklore, unexpected historical discoveries, and, of course, things you never knew or were shy to ask about.
More about this excursion
The timeless classic of the route: • The Bronze Horseman with a view of the embankment through heart-shaped eyes. • St. Isaac's Cathedral: comparisons, facts, legends. • Monument to Nicholas I: the face of the Cultural Capital. • Astoria and Angleterre hotels: facts and fiction. • Admiralty and Alexander Garden: fortress, rampart, canal, boulevard. • Winter Palace and the ensemble of Palace Square: facts and tall tales. • Atlantes of the New Hermitage: the perfect time to think about the сокровенное (inner self). • Millionnaya Street with grand ducal residences, apartment buildings, and personalities: everything as it is with people — with opportunities. • Marsovo Field: post office, tavern, theater, elephant, and monument. • Savior on Blood: how they measured 11 times and cut off 7 times. • Mikhailovsky Castle: pure mysticism and the smallest monument in St. Petersburg.
• I conduct the excursion myself. • Please note the duration of the event — about 3 hours. • The walk is pedestrian, which means clothing should be suitable for the season and weather. • Palaces, churches, and museums along the route do not include visits inside or acquaintance with the interior decoration.
