Hiking

My tip: It makes sense to buy online tickets directly on the official website of the cathedral before embarking on the trip to St. Petersburg: isaak.ticketnet.ru/en. (550 rubles per person, as of summer 2019). You can get to this, without any long queues at the ticket office, directly to the cathedral and the tower.

Hiking

The best and most popular viewing platform of Saint Petersburg is located on the colonnade of St. Isaac's Cathedral - the largest Russian Orthodox church and the fourth largest cathedral in the world. Especially in the summer months an absolute must. After "only" 262 steps ascent, you have worked 43 meters in altitude, and then you get, around the large dome, an absolutely breathtaking 360 ° panoramic view as a reward!
