Description
This city attracts thousands of tourists. There has been a lot written about it and a lot told. But it is still a mystery… St. Petersburg. Not the pompous, gold-and-granite dazzling capital of the Russian Empire. Not a tourist Mecca draining antiquity from the pages of glossy travel guides. Simply a city through the eyes of a Petersburg resident who knows what lies behind the beautiful facades of old buildings, behind unusual street names, behind the unhurried flow of rivers and canals… A cult Peter—our familiar stranger—reveals its secrets on the pages of this book.
