    St. Petersburg is a city of many


    water canals. In fact, there
    are over 342 bridges crossing
    a total length of 300
    kilometers of artificial
    canals. They served as
    important transport ways and
    kept the city built on
    marshland dry. These days,
    most traffic sticks to the roads.
    But as a tourist, you absolutely
    should go on a canal tour and
    see St. Petersburg from a
    different side.
    White Night Festival

    City of St. Petersburg celebrates


    unique festival White Night
    Festival. The Festival begins in
    May with the “Stars of the White
    Nights” at Mariinsky Theatre and
    ends in July. St. Petersburg is the
    world’s most northern city with a
    population over 1 million, and its
    stands at such a high latitude that the
    sun does not descend below the
    horizon enough for the sky to grow
    dark. It’s the time when the day is very
    long and the sun shines till the
    midnight and then rises at 3-4 at
    night, so the nights are not dark.
