WHERE?
The glorious St. Petersburg — the second largest city in Russia and the
fourth in Europe — is situated in the North-West of the country, next
to the borders with Finland and Estonia. Nowadays St. Petersburg is a
vibrant, modern and dynamic megalopolis reckoned as the northernmost city of the world with population over 5 million people. Founded
in 1703 by the first Russian emperor Peter the Great as the capital of the
new European Russia, St. Petersburg has always been the cultural and
scientific center of the country. At the same time the eminent splendor
and grandeur of the imperial capital made St. Petersburg, poetically referred to as the Venice of the North, one of the ten most popular travel
destinations in Europe. Its admirable palaces, marvelous cathedrals,
numerous rivers, channels and bridges, and exquisite gardens and parks
each year attract millions of tourists from all over the globe.
