St. – Petersburg has always been one of the finest cities in the world. Its straight and broad streets, large squares, magnificent arhitectural ensembles, granite embankments, wonderful historical and cultural memorials evoke the admiration of all visitors. The magnificent buildings of the Winter Palace, the Admiralty, the Kazan and St. Isaac`s Cathedral are masterpieces of world architecture.

On the right bank of the Neva one can see the Peter-and-Paul Fortress. From the end of the 18-th century the fortress served as a political prison. Among the prisoners were the leaders of the Decembrist Uprising: Alexander Ulyanov and the writers N. Chernishevsky, F. Dostoyevsky and M. Gorky. In 1922 it was opened as a historical and arhitectural museum.

On the left bank of the Neva one can see the majestic panorama of Palace Square – the central square of

St. – Petersburg . It is the largest and the most beautiful square in the city. It is famous for its marvellous architectural ensemble. There stands the Winter Palace, the former residence of the Russian tsars. It was built by Rastrelly in the 18-th century. After the revolution it became part of the Hermitage, one of the world`s biggest museum. It contains a large collection of European paintings, antique sculptures and many other articles.

The main street of St.- Petersburg is Nevsky Prospect. All kinds of shops, hotels, cafes, restaurants, cinemas and theatres are situated in this street and just off it. It begins at the Admiralty and ends at the Alexander Nevsky Monastery, covering 4,5 km.

A lot of things attract your attention on Nevsky Prospect: the Kazan Cathedral built by Voronikhin, the statues of Field-Marshals Kutuzov and Barclay de Tolly designed by the sculptor Orlovsky. On the other side is Art Square, with a magnificent building of the Russian Museum built by Rossi. Here the best works by Russian and Soviet painters and sculptors are on display.
