You visit the most splendid architectural masterpieces of St.Petesurg: Fine Arts Square with the Russian Museum, the magnificent Church of Resurrection on Spilled Blood, Field of Mars, the Alexanderinsky Drama Theater, Smolny Cathedral, Senate & Synod classical buildings, the Bronze Horseman and much more. Enjoy the beauty of the third largest square in the world - the Palace Square with the Winter Palace and the Alexander Column.
During this tour you also visit The Peter & Paul Fortress, wich is the oldest construction in Saint-Petersburg. The Peter and Paul Fortress had been created for fortification purposes, but was used as a political prison. Peter and Paul Cathedral is a unique sample of Russian 18th-century architecture that has reached us. It had for almost two centuries served as a burial-place for Russian emperors. The last Russian tsar - Nicholas II - and his family were buried in the cathedral's small St. Catherine chapel in 1998.
