We are here at the mouth of the relatively short winter channel into the Neva.

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.
