I have been twice already in this legendary town (first time in Soviet Union) but is is worth a day to wonder again around the channels, churches and palaces. St Peter is compact, so there is no need to use the subway or buses.
For the first time I went to the other side of Neva River to see the famous battleship “Aurora”. It is still there, open to the public in the middle of the day and the entry is free!
To climb up to the cupola of St Isaac Church you have to pay 150 roubles. Museum will cost you 250… They pay at the moment around 30 roubles fer US dollar…
St Peter center today was almost empty. I met very few tourists. And I liked it. It is better to enjoy this atmospheric city out of the crowd…
The only public computer in the hostel seems to be broken forever, but they were so nice and allowed me to use the other one at the reception. Thank you Sasha!
