Peter and Paul fortress and it's neighbourhood.
Of course, we've yet been here. But there's never too much of good things,
isn't it?
I won't really comment the pictures, I've done it a lot of times. Let's
just watch…
We enter the fortress by the bridge that leads from
Troitskaya square (near subway station Gorkovskaya).
At the left and behind the mosque is seen.
Iohannovsky bridge that leads to Iohann
gates (they're behind me).
The fortress is situated on Zayachiy
island.
Troitsky bridge
Troitsky bridge once again. On the other
shore - Mikhailovsky castle with a steeple.
Iohann gates
Peter and Paul cathedral with the church
tower
…And the mint behind it
The Boat house near the church tower.
Was built especially for keeping the boat of Peter the First. (The boat
now keeps in Naval Force Museum, and here is just a copy).
We're walking out from Zayachiy island by
wooden Kronverk bridge.
Ahead in the distance we see the masts, that
weren't here before. Let's come a bit closer…
This restaurant build here since this
autumn. Certainly, the public was indignant, and so on.
But who's going to listen when the building is planned in such a "tasty"
place? :)
View from the other side.
