Nevsky Prospekt has two sides: "sunny" and "shadow" side. The one on which the rays fall, places buildings with even numbers, and the other - with odd numbers.  During the blockade, it was the sunny side that was considered the most dangerous.  In 1943, on this side, the words “Citizens!  During shelling, this side of the street is the most dangerous ”- a memorial plaque with such an inscription is here to this day.

During city holidays, the avenue turns into one red-letter day with music, dancing and parades.  On Nevsky Prospect you can feel the spirit of the city of Petra and observe the modern life of the metropolis.
