St. Petersburg, the former Leningrad,
is with over four million inhabitants
in the actual city
and nearly five million in his
Metropolitan area after Moscow the second largest
City of Russia and one of the
largest cities in Europe. The city is located
in the northwest of the country, at the
Mouth of the Neva, at the eastern end of the
Gulf of Finland. St. Petersburg is the furthest north
Million metropolis of the world. The city was the 18th to 20th centuries the
Capital of the Russian Empire. It is a Europe-wide important cultural center
and houses the main Russian Baltic Sea port. The downtown
is recognized as a World Heritage by UNESCO; the city, over 200 years
long was the political and cultural center of Russia, has one today
impressive cultural landscape. After a referendum in 1991,
in which 54 percent of the population spoke out for the historic name,
the city resumed its original name. Unlike often
Peter the Great, St. Petersburg is not after himself
but after his patron saint, the Apostle Simon Peter.
St. Petersburg was for a long time the seat of the Russian tsars. Here unfolded
they all the splendor of their immense wealth. There are many of them today
Certificates have been preserved.
