The Best of NileGuide
- Surrounded by crystalline waters with the occasional dolphin, it's no surprise that St. Petersburg things to do often focus on the water, as tours take to the seas. But there are also world-class art museums and other must-see attractions. One of the functions of the all-purpose Free Arts Foundation at Pushkinskaia 10 is to sell art, though it doesn't seem obvious at first from the chaotic, counter-cultural atmosphere. Peter and Paul Cathedral is a monumental belfry, with its spire topped by an angel bearing a cross and is one of St. Petersburg's most distinctive landmarks. Nevskii Prospekt is a grand-scale thoroughfare that forms a spine with many canals appearing as spindly but graceful ribs. The mighty Aleksandrovskaia Kolonna (Alexander Column) cut from a giant granite monolith with a bronze base, cap, bas-reliefs and a sculpture on top, was put on Palace Square in memory of victory in the war of 1812. Russia is a nation with a long and fascinating history, and you can experience it for yourself while enjoying the many things to do in St. Petersburg attractions.
