6 days with the coachsurfing community during white nighs in St Petersbourg..what is it??

..a great program in between visits, meet local people and foreigners,and to have fun!

To sum up Saint Petersbourg is an artificial european city buid on the river Neva!

Architectural pearls of Baroque churches so loaded that they seem magical, palaces, fountains, gardens, canals, and the famous "perspective" through the city ... At every street corner, St. Petersburg reveals a new theater decoration. Two revolutions have been there, and yet it still lingers in the atmosphere the magnificence of the tsars and the imprint of the Enlightenment.

 Hermitage, One of the biggest museum in the world!! 

A famous bookshop in Nevsky street                                      Statue of Peter the Great in the forteress

The Kazan Cathedral!! On the left the real one and on the right it's a miniature! The city is so big that they decided to create a small parc with the city in miniature with main buildings.

Peter and Paul fortress                                              Saviour on the Spilt Blood 

City also full of statues included horses                     Beloselsky Belozersky palace

Thanks to 300 bridges we call this city the " North Venise" with also the reputation to be romantic...but when you observe Russian people you forget this detail!

When you feel opressed by huge buildings around you , you can find very nice park, square and the famous Peterof in order to take a breath!

Peterof is compared of our "Versaille". It is the " capital of fountains" a majestic palace and park complex( 1000hectares)Founded by Peter the Great.
