We have collected the top 20 best things to do in Saint Petersburg while you are in Russia

Saint Petersburg is the second largest city of Russia, but just as important as Moscow. It was the capital of imperial Russia for a few hundred years until that title moved to Moscow. The city is often said to be the cultural capital of the nation thanks to its mix of Western and Russian style. Tsar Peter the Great had the city built in the style of cities from Europe, but the influence of Russian architecture and style is apparent. Many international corporations and banks have offices here, along with consulates, making it an even greater mixture of foreign and national culture.
