Saint-Petersburg and its places of interest

St. Petersburg was founded in 1703 by Peter the Great as the “Window of the West”. It was the capital of Russia from 1712 up to 1918. The new capital of the Russian Empire grew in wealth and beauty. In 1914 it became Petrograd and later was renamed after Lenin. Now it is the second largest city of our country. Its population is about five million people. St. Petersburg is a big industrial, cultural and scientific center. It has many educational establishments. There are more than 80 museums, over 20 theatres, a lot of exhibitions, clubs, universities, colleges, schools and parks in St Petersburg.

It lies on the banks of the beautiful Neva River and on 42 islands. The city is cut by many canals. The Neva flows through the middle of the city and is spanned by a great number of bridges. That’s why the city is often called the Northern Venice. The climate of St. Petersburg is mild but rather damp as it is situated near the Gulf of Finland and the lake Ladoga.

The city is famous for its beauty. The city was designed as a future capital of Russia. The streets of the city are symmetrical and long, many buildings are unique masterpieces of art. The Winter Palace, the Russian Museum, St. Isaac’s Cathedral, the Peter and Paul’s Fortress, the Admiralty building attract thousands of tourists. The main street in the city is Nevsky prospect. The most beautiful and largest square is Palace Square. It is the place where concerts and festivals take place.

The State Hermitage in St. Petersburg is one of the world's best art museums. It is the largest fine arts museum in Russia. It is said that it will take more than 11 years to stand just one minute before each of more than 3 million exhibits. One of the most interesting museums is the Russian Museum where you can see wonderful collections of beautiful works by famous Russian painters.

St. Petersburg has a very beautiful underground. The first line was built in 1955. New lines of metro are being built to connect the far off parts of the city.

There are many wonderful monuments in the city. The most famous is a monument to the city's founder Peter I called «The Bronze Horseman».
