A few days ago I visited Saint-Petersburg with my classmates. I went there by peregrine falcon. The way took 4 hours.
I spent 5 days in Saint-Petersburg. The weather was quite good for this city. It rained just once while I was there. I didn't go anywhere shopping, but I visited a lot of sightseeings.
I visited places like Necropolis, Peter and Paul fortress, Peterhof, icebreaker Krasin and others. I learned history of every of this sightseeings. However if someone asks me about the history of the city, I will say that it was founded by Peter 1 in 1703 on Zayachy Island. Also Saint-Petersburg was the capital city and a lot of famous people lived there. I don't remember anything else.
My favourite part of the trip was Museum of Russian Arts. I love drawing so it could be one of the meaning why I liked it. I saw a lot of statues, paintings and other works of art.
Thanks for your attention!
