Description
St Petersburg is one of the loveliest cities in Europe, the former capital of the Tsars of Russia. Known throughout the Communist decades as Leningrad, Russia's traditional "window on the West" is now ripe for rediscovery following the break-up of the Soviet Union. This guidebook covers the city in great detail, guiding the visitor through problems and pitfalls and explaining how to arrange visa or private lodgings, how to get into the best restaurants, how to use a Russian bathhouse, and how to speed through the canals. It features detailed maps which mark all street names and metro stations. There is also coverage of imperial palaces and the surrounding towns of Novgorod and Vyborg.
