I went to St. Petersburg last year. It is a beautiful city, full of wonderful museums and great, ornate and exquisitely detailed cathedrals. The second largest museum in the world is there, the Hermitage. Gorod Gorya, the Russian's call it--or "hero city." It is so named because although the Nazis laid seige to it during WWII and over 800,000 Russians died defending it, it did not fall into German hands. It is the cultural capital of Russia.
