RE: Tour of St. Petersburg, Russia. #2

in #photography6 years ago

Saint Petersburg is a very young city compared to the old European capitals and, perhaps, the only city in the world that has gained so much historical significance in such a short time. Founded in 1703 as a way out to sea, which is essential for Russia's future development in terms of strategic and economic. Saint Petersburg is considered a «key to heaven» to the Russian Empire, so the name of the city is very symbolic: it is called to honor St. Peter, who, as we know from the Bible, is the key keeper of heaven Saint Petersburg today is one of the cultural cities, scientific and industrial sectors in Russia, accommodating several hundred museums and exhibition halls. Great Russian and foreign artists, poets.
