Tour 212:
Temples & Cathedrals of St. Petersburg

Duration: 3 hours
Transport: private transport
Prices: from 20 € p.p.



Saint Petersburg is the former capital of Russia so its cathedrals bear the fine atmosphere of the glory of the former Empire, being witnesses to many historic events and shadowing tombs of great people. Profiting from the comfort of the modern bus ride, you can allow the past engulf you while visiting St. Isaac Cathedral or the Cathedral of Our Savior on the Spilled Blood. St.Isaac cathedral (1858) which golden dome can be seen from any part of the city, and in the clear weather - even from the suburbs is a remarkable monument of Russian architecture and is considered the forth largest domed cathedral in the world. You are encouraged to climb the lower colonnade of the cathedral and enjoy the view of the center of Saint-Petersburg from 43 meters high. Despite the fact that the place is related to the assassination of the Russian tsar-reformer, the cathedral that stands on the place of his peril is one of the most beautiful in Saint Petersburg. The Cathedral of Our Savior on the Spilled Blood revives the traditions of the 17th-century Russian church-building.
