The first article we decided to write about St. Petersburg because it is our home town. We could not start shooting because Petersburg is known for its rainy weather, but on Sunday we were lucky and we were able to make some good photos. The city had many visitors from different countries who were waiting for a good weather all last week.

St. Petersburg is one of Russia's largest cities, was founded in 1703 by the great Russian emperor Peter I. The city was the capital of the Russian Empire until 1918. A distinctive feature of the city is its architecture, represented by the various European styles. That is to take a walk through the streets, millions of tourists visit the North Palmyra. Over the last 3 centuries in the city of three revolutions happened, he survived the siege and brought a lot of famous artists. 

We started our stroll in the center of the city of Kazan Cathedral.

Then we went to the Savior on Spilled Blood, built on the site of the murder of the Russian Emperor.

Gone in the Summer Garden, and held at the Champ de Mars. From there we went to the Palace Square. The most famous square of

Saint Petersburg. Then we climbed the cathedral Isakovsky that would make a shot from a bird's flight. The long spiral staircase leads to the top of the overpass on the tower. On top of the amazing views of the city.

Descending from the observation deck, we went to the Bronze Horseman. This is a monument to Peter the Great the founder of the city. Not far from the monument, we took some photos resting on the lawn. 

Also our friend Alina @alinaaa made a sketch for us. She graduated from the Academy of Art and photography courses. She helped us with photos.

Then we went across the bridge to Vasilyevsky island, look at the Sphinx and the Spit of Vasilyevsky Island.
