St. Petersburg

An unique gate on the outskirts of St. Petersburg on the road to Peterhof. No idea what it signifies.

This is the only building I have seen in Russia so far that displays the hammer and sickle of the former USSR.
Counting the number of cities in which I see an Arch of Triumph.

The Mariinsky Theatre is known as one of the best venues for ballet and opera in the world. The audience will be made up of a complete cross-section of society from little girls in their best dresses, with parents in the tuxedos and bow tie, through to tourists in their jeans and polo shirts. The inside of the building is stunning, very traditional and old-school. It's worth paying the 150 roubles to hire the binoculars, as it allows you to skip the queue to the cloakrooms when you return them. The chairs aren't the most comfortable though. You shouldn't visit St Petersburg without a trip to see something here - it's such a part of the cultural heritage of the city.
