The amazing city, the first stone of which was laid by Peter I himself, has powerful energy that affects people's feelings. At the sight of unique sights, tourists sigh with excitement and everyone experiences a real aesthetic shock.
The architectural decoration of St. Petersburg is not only surprising. In the decor of luxurious temples, palaces, fortresses, hidden signs that have mystical power are hidden. Speaking of unofficial symbols of the city on the Neva, we can recall the Rostral columns on Vasilyevsky Island, drawbridges, the Alexandrian pillar. But perhaps the first association with Northern Venice will still be the Peter and Paul Fortress, which has become its hallmark.
